Innovative document and device protection
helps ensure confidentiality
To help protect your data, the MX4101N/5001N Series offers several layers of security, making
Sharp the optimum choice to protect employee privacy and intellectual property. As the
leader in office equipment security, Sharp makes it easy for any business or government
entity to safely deploy digital copying, printing, scanning and faxing.
Authority Groups and Access Control
Advanced account management enables administrators to set authority groups for access
to features of the MX4101N/5001N Series. Administrators can control which department, for
instance, has full access to colour copying, printing, scanning and/or fax. 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 MX4101N/5001N 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. Additionally, the data security kits for these models comply to the new
IEEE-2600-2008 security standard for MFP devices. This new standard specifies security
requirements and provides a new international reference to assess contemporary MFP security.
Network Scanning Access
To help protect your network from unauthorized e-mail communications, the MX4101N/
MX5001N Series supports User Authentication, requiring users to login before performing
any network scanning operations.
Control Device Access Over the Network
To help restrict access to the device over the network, the MX4101N/5001N 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 MX4101N/5001N
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.
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 enable your business to meet regulatory requirements,
such as the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).
