Kyocera and API Cryptek, a leading provider of secure networking products and solutions, offer complete device locking security capabilities through API Cryptek’s Netgard™ MFD card reader appliance for select Kyocera multifunctional products (MFPs).
- End users who wish to access standard full functions of a Kyocera MFP, including copy, scan, e-mail and fax, will be required to authenticate with their U.S. Department of Defense-issued CAC/PIV Card (Common Access Card/Personal Identity Verification) and their personal identification number (PIN) via API Cryptek’s Netgard MFD.
- With this advanced security in place, Kyocera MFPs are securely locked from performing tasks until the user has been successfully identified.
- Utilizing the Netgard MFD with Kyocera’s MFPs effectively secures the device and prevents unauthorized users from accessing privileged materials or tampering with network resources.
