Security Policy
It is a common practice for organizations to adopt a security policy that defines basic information security objectives and standards, which requires information devices such as computers and multifunctional printers to be operated accordingly. If you have a security policy to be applied in your organization, apply it to this machine as well.
Viewing the Security Policy
You can view the security policy set in the machine using the Remote UI.

To Apply the Security Policy to the Machine
You can import the security policy edited on the imageRUNNER ADVANCE Series or using Device Management Software to apply it to this machine. In addition, you can export the security policy as applied to this machine to apply it to other machines*. Importing/Exporting the Setting Data
*Only Canon devices that are compatible with security policy settings
 |
The security policy settings can only be imported if the security policy setting password on the exporting machine matches that of the importing machine, or if no password has been set for the importing machine. If no password has been set for the importing machine, the password configured for the exporting machine is set to the importing machine. You cannot set or change the security policy on this machine. |
