Security
Security of your RICOH ProcessDirector system includes determining who can access RICOH ProcessDirector and what functions they can do. You use RICOH ProcessDirector user names, groups, and locations to control security.
In this section:
- Managing passwordsUsers must have a RICOH ProcessDirector user name and password to access the system and to do RICOH ProcessDirector actions.
- Secure Sockets Layer and Transport Layer Security supportRICOH ProcessDirector provides support for the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols, so you can protect the print data in the system.
- Managing access to objects using locationsMany objects, such as jobs, printers, input devices, inserter controllers, and barcode readers have a Location property. The user property notebook has two properties to manage access to locations. The Allowed locations property affects which objects the user can see in the user interface. The Locations to show property lets users select which of their allowed locations to display in the user interface. On the Preferences dialog, each user can change the Locations to show property to add or remove locations from their current view.
- Restricting use of the LPD protocol to submit jobsYou can limit the hosts that can use the LPD protocol to submit jobs to all the input devices with the same parent server. The default is to allow input from all systems.
