16. Entering User Name / Password at the MFP
Why authenticate at the MFP?
Consider security implications of todays network connected
MFPs
Scanning software can move paper-based info outside the
organization
Less than 5% of MFP customers are authenticating. Why so
few?
Scanning software doesnt support it
Takes too long
No type ahead
Soft keyboards (screen typing)
What if you could authenticate by speaking your name &
password?
