INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM
An information processing system includes a first device, a second device, and a controller. The controller determines, prior to transmission of data from the first device to the second device, whether or not transmission of the data is permitted from an area security class based on a device attribute of the second device and from a data security class of the data, and outputs a determined result to the first device.
1 . An information processing system comprising:
a first device;
a second device; and
a controller that determines, prior to transmission of data from the first device to the second device, whether or not transmission of the data is permitted from an area security class based on a device attribute of the second device and from a data security class of the data, and outputs a determined result to the first device.
2 . The information processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the controller outputs that transmission of the data is permitted when the data security class is lower than or equal to the area security class.
3 . The information processing system according to claim 2 , wherein the controller outputs that transmission of the data is prohibited when the data security class exceeds the area security class.
4 . The information processing system according to claim 2 , wherein the controller outputs device information based on which the data security class is lower than or equal to the area security class when the data security class exceeds the area security class.
5 . The information processing system according to claim 2 , wherein, even when the data security class exceeds the area security class, the controller outputs that transmission of the data is permitted when urgency of the data is high.
6 . The information processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the device attribute includes a type and position information of the second device.
7 . The information processing system according to claim 6 , wherein the controller determines the area security class of the second device by referring to a table that defines in advance a corresponding relationship between the type and position information of the second device and the area security class.
8 . The information processing system according to claim 6 , wherein the controller determines the data security class using a machine-learnt neural network.
9 . The information processing system according to claim 1 , wherein:
the second device is a printer; and
the data is image data to be processed by the printer.
10 . The information processing system according to claim 9 , wherein the controller determines whether transmission of the image data is permitted on a page by page basis and outputs a determined result.
11 . An information processing apparatus comprising:
an input unit that accepts an instruction to transmit data; and
a controller that obtains, prior to transmission of the data, a device attribute of a transmission destination of the data, and determines whether or not transmission of the data is permitted by comparing an area security class based on the device attribute and a data security class of the data.
12 . A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:
accepting an instruction to transmit data;
obtaining a device attribute of a transmission destination of the data prior to transmission of the data;
determining an area security class of the transmission destination of the data on the basis of the device attribute;
determining a data security class of the data; and
determining whether or not transmission of the data is permitted by comparing the area security class and the data security class and outputting a determined result.
