Is it secure to print using central printers?
Secure printing using the central MFD print service is achieved through:
Access Security:
- To release a job the user must be present at the device to authenticate using their AU username and password or their Aber Card.
Network security:
-
MFDs are on a separate network (VLAN) which prevents other devices from accessing them directly.
-
The MFDs network interfaces is secured with a firewall.
-
The print server itself is firewalled and kept up-to-date automatically with security updates.
