Multifunction Device Hardening Checklist

This checklist contains multifunction device (MFD) hardening requirements. An MFD is sometimes called a multifunction printer (MFP) or all-in-one (AIO) device, and typically incorporates printing, copying, scanning, and faxing capabilities.
 

Handheld Hardening Checklists

The hardening checklists are based on the comprehensive checklists produced by the Center for Internet Security (CIS), when possible. The Information Security Office has distilled the CIS lists down to the most critical steps for your systems, with a particular focus on configuration issues that are unique to the computing environment at The University of Texas at Austin.
