TMA-MFD-1.1.1
Limit Physical Access to Device
Description
It is recommended that physical access to the MFD be restricted to only authorized users. Additionally, consider segregating print use by data classification or label. For example, it may be inappropriate for personnel from shipping to access a MFD used by the human resources department. Restricting physical access to the MFD will limit threats against the device’s hardware and protect the confidentiality of print, scan, and fax data.
