22.7 Integrated Cloud Environment Security White Paper
22.7.1 System Overview
The Integrated Cloud Environment provides the necessary connectivity to access and utilize the
available cloud services. This access is in conjunction with the OCR capability and Cloud Print
capability also provided by the Integrated Cloud Environment.
The “core” or basic Integrated Cloud Environment components, including the web application
server, OCR server, and the management platform server are hosted at the Savvis NJ3 Data
center located in Piscataway, New Jersey. The Print Cloud user application is an exception, and
is powered by independently by Soonr Inc (www.soonr.com).
This Security White Paper will detail the security management incorporated in the basic
Integrated Cloud Environment components. As for the Print Cloud user application service
security details, please refer to the Print Cloud User Guide.
22.7.2 Integrated Cloud Environment
This section details the connectivity to the cloud service(s) security, and OCR process security
management provided in the Integrated Cloud Environment.
22.7.2.1 Interacting with the applications
In order to ensure that any scanned document is stored or processed only by those authorized,
Integrated Cloud Environment provides a “User Name and Password” authentication screen.
This authentication is required whenever you scan your document to an external cloud service.
Also once you hit the “Home” button, you are logged-out from the service, minimizing the risk
of an application being used by anyone else. Additionally, if the “Home” button is not pressed,
you are automatically logged-out from the session after 5 minutes.
22.7.2.2 Transmitting Information
All sensitive data transferred between the MFP and the Integrated Cloud Environment server,
and between the Integrated Cloud Environment server and any external cloud service, is fully
encrypted using 128 bit SSL. With the incorporation of encryption in all Integrated Cloud
Environment communication, all users can be sure that the information and data being
processed remains secure. Only image/icon files used for the user interface of the application
are transmitted without encryption. This is done to improve the performance of the user
interface rendering with the MFP Browser.
