Comprehensive Security
Security is a top priority for every business. Xerox® ConnectKey® Technology exceeds industry standards for security features and technologies.
Although it’s integral to our technology, there’s nothing standard about the levels of security included with every ConnectKey® Technology-enabled device. We offer a comprehensive set of security features to keep your printers and your data safe. We secure every part of the data chain, including print, copy, scan, fax, file downloads and system software. So you can work with total peace of mind.
There are four key aspects to our multi-layered approach:
Prevent
Your first and most obvious vulnerability is the user interface and maintaining control over who has physical access to your printer and its features. Xerox security measures start with intrusion prevention through User Authentication to ensure only authorised staff have access. Once in, Role-Based Access Control ensures each team member sees only the features you want them to see. Every action by each user is also logged, offering a full audit trail.
Then we tackle less obvious points of intrusion – what is sent to the printer and how. Xerox® ConnectKey® Technology will intercept attacks from corrupted files and malicious software.1 Our system software is Digitally Signed: any attempts to install infected, non-signed versions will result in the file being automatically rejected. Print files will also be deleted if any part is not recognised as legitimate.
Trusted Boot utilises a series of system checks to ensure the trustworthiness of the AltaLink® Device’s embedded computing system and protects the integrity of the boot process from malicious actions.
The innovative Configuration Watchdog feature makes compliance with company security policies simple. Administrators can configure and monitor up to 75 security features and automatically reset them if they are changed by a user. Email alerts are generated in case remediation is unsuccessful, and all events are captured in the audit log.
Detect
In the unlikely event that your data and network defences are bypassed, Xerox® ConnectKey® Technology will run a comprehensive Firmware Verification test when activated by authorised users. This alerts you if any harmful changes to your printer have been detected.
All AltaLink® Devices use Trellix whitelisting3 technology, which constantly monitors for and automatically prevents any malicious malware from running. Integration with Cisco® Identity Services Engine (ISE) auto-detects Xerox® Devices on the network and classifies them as printers for security policy implementation and compliance. By interacting with the market-leading McAfee® DXL and Cisco® pxGrid platforms, Xerox® Multifunction Printers (MFPs) employ an orchestrated response that neutralises threats at their source the moment they occur.
Native integration with market-leading Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) tools such as McAfee Enterprise Security Manager, LogRhythm and Splunk simplifies reporting threats in real time so they can be analysed and addressed without loss of precious time.
Learn more about Trellix protection.
Protect
At Xerox, we drill down deeper. Our comprehensive security solutions also protect your printed and scanned documents from unauthorised disclosure or modification. Xerox® ConnectKey® Technology helps to block the deliberate or accidental transfer of key data to those not authorised to see it. With the Imaging Security feature you can protect sensitive documents from unintentional disclosure using AltaLink’s proprietary marking and infrared detection technology.
We protect print output using a PIN code, card release system and mobile device authentication. We restrict scanned information from reaching those who should not receive it by using digitally signed, encrypted and password-protected file formats. ConnectKey® Technology-enabled printers also let you lock down ‘to/cc/bcc’ email fields, limiting scan destinations to internal addresses.
Xerox also protects all your stored information using the highest levels of encryption. We delete any processed or stored data that is no longer required using National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and US Department of Defense approved data clearing and sanitisation algorithms.2
External Partnerships
We work with compliance testing organisations and security industry leaders such as McAfee and Cisco to wrap their overarching standards and know-how around ours. For third-party independent proof that we achieve top levels of compliance, certification bodies like Common Criteria (ISO/IEC 15408) and FIPS 140-3 measure our performance against international standards. They recognise us for our comprehensive approach to printer security.

Enables Managed Print Services
Xerox® Managed Print Services brings a portfolio of capabilities, including advanced analytics, utilisation of cloud services, digitisation technologies and comprehensive security, to help workplaces become more efficient, employees more productive and data more secure. It’s a streamlined and secure way to accelerate digital transformation while optimising print processes and infrastructure. ConnectKey® Technology integrates with all Xerox® MPS capabilities and offers.
Efficient Workplace
An optimised print infrastructure means that you can control costs, improve sustainability metrics and maximise ROI. Because ConnectKey® Technology delivers an easy, intuitive user experience across the device portfolio, it enables us to make sure the right printers with the right capabilities are at the right places, optimising printer fleet and saving money. Other benefits include remote configuration and installation, device management and linkage to help desk/incident management tools.
Productive Employees
User-friendly, automated processes help employees become more productive. MPS analytics combined with ConnectKey® standard or customised apps can help you identify and remove any bottlenecks you might have within workflows, to increase operational efficiency by automating paper-heavy, labour-intensive processes. Document digitisation is another advantage. By using the latest scanning software and Managed Print Services capabilities, your business can create a central “hub” where employees can access critical documentation and collaborate on projects across departments, offices, countries and oceans.
Secure Environment
MPS device management combined with ConnectKey® Technology can ensure the security of your devices, documents, data and content. For example, it can hold documents in a secure server until users securely authenticate at the printer, so documents are never left unattended in an output tray. And this can be achieved wherever and whenever the employee decides to print the document. Security features such as file and disk encryption, disk overwrite and the strictest certifications help ensure that your documents and data are protected from cyber threats.
