Authority Groups
Advanced account management enables administrators to set authority groups for access to features of the MX-2310U. Administrators can control which department, for instance, has full access to copying, printing, scanning and/or fax. Walk up users enter a code, Local Name and Password, or LDAP User Authentication to access the features assigned to their group.

Data Overwrite and Encryption
To help protect your data, the MX-2310U can encrypt document data using AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) 256-bit  encryption. The MX-2310U can also erase the temporary memory on the hard drive by overwriting the encrypted data up to seven times, offering an unprecedented level of assurance.

Network Scanning Access Control
To help protect your network from unauthorized e-mail communications,
the MX-2310U 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 MX-2310U
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
The MX-2310U offers Confidential Printing, which when used, requires
users to enter a PIN code in order to print a queued document. To help protect your direct-print documents from unauthorized viewing, the MX-2310U
offers encrypted  PDF printing and scanning. Additionally, Secure Fax Release ensures received fax documents are held in memory until an authorized user enters a PIN code, so that compliance with healthcare regulations such as HIPAA is easier.

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.
