Abstract

An information processing device is shared by multiple organizations having different information protection policies, the information processing device including: a specifying unit that specifies an organization to which a user using the information processing device belongs, before identifying the user; and an application unit that applies an information protection policy corresponding to the organization specified by the specifying unit, to the information processing device.

Claims (31)

1. An information processing device shared by a plurality of organizations having different information protection policies, the information processing device comprising:

a processor programmed to:

specify an organization to which a user who is attempting to use the information processing device belongs, before identifying the user;

apply an information protection policy corresponding to the specified organization, to the information processing device, the information protection policy including at least a security policy in an authentication scheme indicating whether or not information on a log-in screen is to be concealed;

after the information protection policy is applied, receive user information identifying the user for a log-in process on the log-in screen in accordance with the information protection policy; and

after successful authentication of the received user information, allow the user to use the information processing device.

2. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is programmed to:

in specifying the organization of the user who is attempting to use the information processing device, display organizations sharing the information processing device in such a way that an organization can be selected, and display an organization of a user who transmitted information to the information processing device most recently in a higher position than other organizations.

3. The information processing device according to claim 2 , wherein the processor is programmed to:

receive information to be processed by the information processing device from the user; and

after having identified the user based on the user information identifying the user for a log-in process, in a case where the identified user and the user within the received information to be processed match, process the information to be processed.

4. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is programmed to:

generate information for specifying the organizations sharing the information processing device; and

prompt the user to input the information that has been generated, and specify the organization to which the user belongs from the information that has been input.

5. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein processing to identify the user for the log-in process is not carried out in a case where the organization specified does not correspond to the organizations sharing the information processing device.

6. The information processing device according to claim 4 , wherein

the information that has been generated is a QR code.

7. The information processing device according to claim 4 , wherein the processor is programmed to:

receive information to be processed by the information processing device from the user, the information including information specifying the organization to which the user belongs; and

perform control so as to prompt the user to input information that has been generated, specify the organization to which the user belongs from the information that has been input, and, in a case where the specified organization and the organization within the received information to be processed match, process the information to be processed.

8. The information processing device according to claim 7 , wherein, in a case where a plurality of organizations are included within the received information to be processed, the processor does not process the information to be processed, or specifies an information protection policy in accordance with a predetermined rule.

9. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer within an information processing device to execute a process, the information processing device being shared by a plurality of organizations having different information protection policies, and the process comprising:

specifying an organization to which a user who is attempting to use the information processing device belongs, before identifying the user;

applying an information protection policy corresponding to the specified organization, to the information processing device, the information protection policy including at least a security policy in an authentication scheme indicating whether or not information on a log-in screen is to be concealed;

after the information protection policy is applied, receiving user information identifying the user for a log-in process in accordance with the information protection policy; and

after successful authentication of the received user information, allowing the user to use the information processing device.

10. An information processing method to be performed by an information processing device shared by a plurality of organizations having different information protection policies, the information processing method comprising:

specifying an organization to which a user who is attempting to use the information processing device belongs, before identifying the user;

applying an information protection policy corresponding to the specified organization, to the information processing device, the information protection policy including at least a security policy in an authentication scheme indicating whether or not information on a log-in screen is to be concealed;

after the information protection policy is applied, receiving user information identifying the user for a log-in process in accordance with the information protection policy; and

after successful authentication of the received user information, allowing the user to use the information processing device.
