Abstract:
To provide an electronic device that is capable of maintaining a backup performance of a specified type of data for a long period of time. An MFP has a feature to includes a HDD, an SSD, a data type determination part that determines whether or not data is a specified type of data, a writing control part that controls a data writing, the writing control part writing the data that is determined to be the specified type of the data to both the HDD and the SSD, the writing control part writes the data that is determined not to be the specified type of the data to only the HDD, among the HDD and the SSD.
Abstract:
An information processing device includes a volatile memory, a non-volatile semiconductor memory, a storage circuit, and a processor. The processor records corresponding update information in a first log area when updating actual data in a first actual data area by the update data. The processor collects the update information recorded in the first log area at a specific timing. The processor writes the collected update information to a second log area. After writing the collected update information, the processor initializes the first log area. When the second log area becomes full, the processor writes the actual data in the first actual data area to the corresponding second actual data area. After writing the actual data, the processor initializes the first log area and the second log area.
Abstract:
A print control method includes a confidential print control step. The confidential print control step includes determining whether skip permission conditions set in advance for each of the plurality of pieces of user designation data are satisfied when the submission destination designation data of the confidential job data requested to be executed includes a plurality of pieces of user designation data assigned with prioritization orders, thereby specifying the user designation data falling within a print permission range according to the prioritization orders, and executing confidential print control for the user designation data within the print permission range. The confidential print control step includes causing to execute the print processing for the confidential job data on the condition that the input authentication data by which the user authentication process is successful matches the data corresponding to the user designation data among the plurality of pieces of registration authentication data.
Abstract:
There is provided an image forming apparatus that eliminates the need for separately preparing an encrypted file for each user. To achieve this, the image forming apparatus performs control of browsing of a browsing file that is browsed at a terminal. The document acquisition portion of the image forming apparatus acquires document data. The document encryption portion encrypts the document data with a public key as the browsing file. The position information setting portion sets position information to permit browsing of the browsing file encrypted by the document encryption portion in a viewer for causing the browsing file to be browsed at the terminal. In the case where it has been determined that the position information coincides with a current position, a browsing execution portion at the terminal uses a secret key to decrypt the browsing file for causing it to be browsed.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes volatile memory, flash memory, and a CPU. The volatile memory includes a first actual data region that records actual data and a first log region that records update information including update data used for updating the actual data. The flash memory includes blocks and undergoes block unit initialization when writing is to be performed thereto. The blocks each include a second actual data region that records actual data and a second log region that records update information written from the first log region. The CPU writes update information corresponding to update data to the first log region when updating actual data using the update data. At a preset specific timing, the CPU collects update information recorded in the first log region, writes the collected update information to the second log regions in accordance with a specific order, and subsequently initializes the first log region.
