Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a reception unit that receives a transmission request for image data from an image processing apparatus to which a user provides an instruction to execute image processing, an acquisition unit that acquires a security policy corresponding to attribute information related to an attribute of the image processing apparatus in a case where the reception unit receives the transmission request, and a control unit that performs control for transmitting the image data to the image processing apparatus and executing the image processing in the image processing apparatus in accordance with the security policy acquired by the acquisition unit.

Claims (30)

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a processor configured to:

receive a transmission request for image data from an image processing apparatus to which a user provides an instruction to execute image processing;

acquire a security policy that includes an attribute of the image processing apparatus in a case where the transmission request is received; and

perform a control for transmitting the image data to the image processing apparatus and executing the image processing in the image processing apparatus in accordance with the acquired security policy,

wherein the attribute is an attribute information including information related to at least one of a pre-registered organization to which the image processing apparatus belongs or a relationship between the user and the image processing apparatus,

the relationship between the user and the image processing apparatus is information representing whether or not the pre-registered organization to which the image processing apparatus belongs corresponds to a pre-registered organization to which the user belongs,

wherein the information processing apparatus compares the pre-registered organization to which the image processing apparatus belongs with the pre-registered organization to which the user belongs, and

wherein in a case where the pre-registered organization to which the image processing apparatus belongs does not correspond to the pre-registered organization to which the user belongs, the acquired security policy applied in executing the image processing in the image processing apparatus is stricter than in a case where the pre-registered organization to which the image processing apparatus belongs corresponds to the pre-registered organization to which the user belongs,

the acquired security policy applied in executing the image processing in the image processing apparatus is stricter, is defined as a security policy in which a number of a non-specifying process is larger than that in a default security policy.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the security policy is a security policy for which an instruction to perform a predetermined process for preventing at least one of the user or the image data from being specified is provided.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein the predetermined process is a process of transmitting information related to the image data to the image processing apparatus excluding specifying information that leads to specifying of at least one of the user or the image data.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 ,

wherein the specifying information is information that includes at least one of a name of the user or a name of the image data.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein the predetermined process is a non-specifying process of outputting a processing result of the image processing in a form in which at least one of the user or the image data is not specified.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 ,

wherein the non-specifying process is a process of concealing at least one of a name of the user or a name of the image data on a display unit of the image processing apparatus.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein the predetermined process is a process of preventing information related to at least one of the user or the image data from being stored in the image processing apparatus.

8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processer is further configured to acquire a default security policy of at least one of a first default security policy set in advance with respect to the user or a second default security policy set in advance with respect to a logical image processing apparatus that receives the image data transmitted from the user, and

generate a new security policy from the acquired default security policy and a security policy including the attribute information.

9. The information processing apparatus according to claim 8 ,

wherein priorities are set on the security policy including the attribute information, the first default security policy, and the second default security policy, and

the processor is further configured to generate the new security policy in accordance with the priorities.

10. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing an information processing program causing a computer to function as:

the information processing apparatus according to claim 1 .
