Canon’s Unified Firmware Platform (UFP) allows Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE models to be updated with cutting-edge features, new functionality, and enhanced security measures on an ongoing basis.
Steady moving streams are critical to the quality and supply of drinking water, ensuring a continuous flow of clean water and recharging of underground aquifers.
Without them, the source becomes stagnant and potentially hazardous.
Your documents, your networks, and your devices need a similar steady stream to protect against security threats. Consider network security: From security patches to encryption protocols, a rapidly evolving nature of threats calls for continuous updates and up-to-date tools for protection.
Let’s say your office updated recently to Windows 10, and within that a number of security updates were implemented. How does that affect your older copier, with antiquated security protocols? Does that mean purchasing new copiers to comply with your new operating system?
A steady stream of updates is essential to ensure sound security of sensitive business information.
Canon’s Unified Firmware Platform (UFP) allows Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE models to be updated with cutting-edge features, new functionality, and enhanced security measures on an ongoing basis, ensuring that each device is not only capable … but also consistent with one another.
McAfee Embedded Control (available with UFP v3.9 and beyond) helps block the execution of unauthorized applications like malware through intelligent whitelisting and prevent tampering of existing firmware and applications.
The latest version of UFP Enables use of encrypted FTPS communication protocols for enhanced security.
Canon is among the first in the industry to support this encryption protocol, providing hardened security and improved network communication performance.
This identifies tampering of boot code, OS/firmware, and MEAP applications.
This feature integrates with third party Security Information and Event Management systems to alert network administrators of potential threats.
