摘要:
A system and method for the selective sharing of an electronic document. The method enables a user to share access to an electronic document stored on a repository on a document management system. A user, via a document processing services network, generates a password and token corresponding to the document to be shared. The token provides information regarding the electronic document to be shared and the way the shared document will be made available to other users. The user then gives the token along with the password to the other users desiring to have access to the shared document. The other users are then able to retrieve the electronic document via email, viewing on a web browser, or printing at a multifunction peripheral device.

A system and method for secure handling of scanned documents is provided. Electronic document data is received by a document processing device and assigned an identifier unique to the document. A user ID or electronic mail address is then received corresponding to the selected output operation. The user ID or address is then transmitted, along with the identifier, to an encryption key generator, which then generates a symmetric encryption key. The encryption key is then returned to the document processing device, whereupon the electronic document data is encrypted and the key is deleted by the document processing device. The encrypted document is then stored or transmitted via electronic mail, in accordance with the selected output operation. Decryption is thereafter accomplished using the document identifier, user ID or email address, and key generator identification data.

A system and method for secure inter-process data communication is provided. Identification data corresponding to a user is received and used to generate a symmetric encryption key. The symmetric encryption key is then used to encrypt job data. A token associated with the encrypted job data is then generated. Expiration data corresponding to the validity period of the token is then associated with the token, whereupon the token is stored. The generated symmetric key is then encrypted using a static symmetric encryption key, whereupon the encrypted symmetric key is also stored in association with the token. When a process receives the encrypted job data, the process retrieves the token and determines, based on the expiration data whether the token is still valid. When the token is valid, the static key is retrieved and used to decrypt the encrypted encryption key. The decrypted encryption key is then used to decrypt the job data, whereupon the process performs the function associated therewith upon the decrypted job data.

The present invention is directed to a system and method for propagation of security information for secure information exchange. Existing and new authentication information are gathered and combined into the same header. The header is attached to electronic document data encrypted by a client device and sent via a computer network to a document processing device. The document processing device, upon receipt of the header and document first decrypts the header and uses the existing authentication information to qualify the new authentication information by validating the existing authentication information through a trusted authentication mechanism. Once validated, the new authentication information is available for future document processing operations by the document processing device and other trusted document processing devices.

The present invention is directed to a system and method for secure transmission of electronic document data on a network. The method begins with the receipt of user identification data associated with the identity of a user of document processing devices on the associated network. A password key, composed of a first share and a second share, is then generated from the user identification data. The first share is then communicated to an associated storage area. Electronic document data is then received, and an encryption key is randomly generated. The electronic document data is then encrypted using the encryption key. The second share is then appended to the encrypted electronic document and the combined data is communicated to an associated document processing device.

The subject application is directed to a system and method for automated application of security levels to electronic documents.1). Text data associated with text content of each of a plurality of stored electronic documents is stored in a data storage, each of the stored electronic documents having a security level associated therewith. An electronic document inclusive of text data comprising a plurality of text strings is received, and the text strings are compared with text data in at least one of the stored electronic documents. A security level is assigned to the received electronic document at a level associated with a stored electronic document in accordance with an output of the comparison.OR2). Electronic documents are received and keyword data is extracted to generate an index file associated with each electronic document. The index file is then stored in association with its respective electronic document in an associated data storage. Upon receipt of an electronic document for processing, keyword data is extracted and compared to keyword data in the index files associated with each of the stored electronic documents. The security level associated with each matching stored electronic document is then identified to determine the highest security level from among the matching documents. The received electronic document is then assigned the highest determined security level.
摘要:
A system and method for controlled monitoring of pending document processing operations is provided. Each document processing request received by a document processing device is assigned a job name, which is then encrypted using a random static encryption key, resulting in a job identification. A user then logs onto the document processing device to view pending jobs, which are displayed to the user by only job identification. Those jobs with which the user is associated are then decrypted by the document processing device, allowing the user to view job information including status and file name. The user is thereby also able to modify or delete those pending jobs with which the user is associated. Once the job queue is empty, the random static encryption key is deleted and a new key is generated when a document processing request is received into the empty queue.

The subject application is directed to a system and method for secure logging of document processing device messages. A duration for capturing status messages is first defined and unencrypted document processing device status messages are received during the defined duration. An encryption key is generated for association with the duration and is thereafter associated with the duration. Each of the unencrypted document processing status messages is then encrypted using the key as it is received. The encrypted messages are then stored in an associated data storage. Following a completion of the defined duration, each of the encrypted messages is decrypted and then stored in a single, signed storage file. The signed storage file is then encrypted using the generated encryption key, and the encrypted storage file is associatively stored with the key.

The subject application is directed to a system and method for securing of document processing devices in accordance with use patterns. Operational data is first received associated with the historic operation of an associated document processing device is first received. Next, feature data corresponding to the available capabilities of the associated document processing device is received. Utilization data is then generated according to the received operational data and the feature data, which includes data representing underutilized capabilities of the associated document processing device. An electronic document is then output inclusive of the generated utilization data.

A system and method for state transition intrusion detection is provided. The system and method employ a state transition file, containing a listing or table of all available state transitions associated with a given operation. A log file is then generated using state transition data gathered during the performance of a given operation. Depending upon the instructions present in the state transition file, one or more state transitions in the log file are digitally signed. To determine if an intrusion has occurred, the log file is analyzed, state transition by state transition. This analysis is accomplished by comparing the signatures associated with the state transitions in the log file with those signatures contained in the state transition file, thereby detecting any erroneous signatures. Each operation capable of being performed is accounted for in the state transition file such that all available state transitions associated with the operation are stored in the file. The type of operation represented in the log file is then determined and the transitions contained in the log file are compared to those transitions associated with the operation type in the state transition file. Any missing state transitions denote tampering or modification of the log file, indicating an intrusion, whereupon an administrator is notified.
