The exchange of digital documents
in the 21st century creates new
challenges for network security.
Sharp has developed an award-
winning, multi-layered security
system to help protect valuable
information and maintain employee
confidentiality. No company has more
experience in maintaining digital
security—so corporate end-users
and IT professionals can count on
the proven safeguards of the
Frontier DX Series.
PROVEN PROTECTION FOR CONFIDENTIAL DATA,
DEVICE ACCESS AND NETWORK SAFEGUARDS
Authority Group and Access Control
Advanced account management enables administrators to set authority groups for access to features of the
Frontier DX Series. Administrators can control which department, for instance, has full access to color copying,
printing, scanning and/or faxing. Walk up users enter a code, Local Name and Password, or LDAP User
Authentication to access their features assigned to their group. Users can also login utilizing a human
interface device (HID) such as a Smartcard or Common Access Card (CAC).*
Data Erase and Encryption
To help protect your data, the Frontier DX Series offers an optional data security kit that encrypts document
data using
AES
(Advanced encryption standard)
encryption
. Additionally, the data security kit erases the temporary
memory on the hard drive by overwriting the encrypted data up to seven times, offering an unprecedented
level of assurance.
Control Device Access Over the Network
To help restrict access to the device over the network, the Frontier DX Series offers IPsec, SMB and extended
support for
SSL Encryption
(Secure Sockets Layer),
IP/MAC address filtering
, IEEE 802.1x authentication,
protocol enable/disable and port management for maximum security.
Documents Remain Confidential
To help protect your printed documents from unauthorized viewing, the Frontier DX Series offers encrypted
PDF files for printing and scanning as well as
Confidential Printing
that requires users to enter a PIN code
in order to print a queued document. Additionally,
Secure Fax Release
ensures received fax documents are
held in memory until an authorized user enters a PIN code. So compliance with healthcare regulations such
as HIPAA is easier.
Network Scanning Access
To help protect your network from unauthorized e-mail communications, the Frontier DX Series supports
User Authentication
, requiring users to login before performing any network scanning operations.
Tracking and Auditing Information
Legislation and industry policies require companies to be more aware of information flow from their offices.
Sharp offers both built-in and additional hardware/software which allows users to control, access and track
usage of each device on the network.
These scalable security offerings aim to protect your intellectual property, preserve confidential
information and help your business to meet regulatory requirements, such as the Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), and the Gramm Leach Bliley Act (GLB). For additional
