Xerox® Security Guide for Light Production Mono Class Products
- ID information in plain text.
- Password encrypted in MN-CHAPv2 method.
Smart Card Authentication
Two-factor security - Smart Card plus User Name/Password combination. Requires optional card reader
hardware and software plugin. Authentication is handled by a remote server. Supported remote
authentication methods include Kerberos, SMB and LDAP.
Smart Card authentication is considered very secure due to the nature of the Smart Card architecture and
potential levels of encryption of data on the card itself.
Support for the SIPR network is provided using the XCP Plug-in architecture and a Smart Card
authentication solution created by 90meter under contract for Xerox.
Details regarding 90meter can be found online here: http://www.90meter.com/
Other Smart Card authentication solutions are offered including support for CAC/PIV and .NET
compatible cards leveraging XCP Plug-ins.

Convenience Authentication
Convenience authentication offloads authentication to a third-party solution which may offer more or less
security than native security implementations. Users swipe a pre-programmed identification card or key
fob to access the device.
For example, employees may be issued key fobs for access to facilities. Convenience mode may be
configured to allow an employee to authenticate using their fob or require the fob in a multi-factor manor.
The level of security provided is dependent upon the chosen implementation.
Some examples of third party convenience authentication providers include:

Contact your Xerox sales representative for details and other options.
Simple Authentication (non-secure)
Simple authentication is mentioned here for completeness. It is intended for environments where
authentication is not required. It is used for customization only. When in this mode, users are not
required to enter a password. (The device administrator account always requires a password).
