In an event of a security threat or anomaly, HP SureStart , Whitelisting , and Runtime Intrusion Detection help to detect, protect, and recover the printer. These embedded security features automatically restart the printer to a secure state.

Whitelisting Whitelisting is a feature that uses code-signing to make sure that only known HP firmware versions are loaded. The firmware coordinates hardware functions, runs the control panel, provides network security, and determines what features are available when printing, scanning, or sending emails.

Whitelisting uses an HP digital signature to verify that only authentic HP code, solutions, and 3rd party solution files are authorized to be loaded into memory and operate the printer. If a file without an authentic HP digital signature is detected, the printer will not load the solutions file, will restart the printer, and will display the Preboot menu options on the control panel, thus preventing a potential malware exploit from executing.

Run-time Intrusion Detection The Run-time Intrusion Detection feature detects anomalies in the system memory and protects the printer while it is connected to the network. It detects any malware intrusion attempts during complex firmware and system memory operations, and validates that the memory space is not modified to prevent memory corruption.

If an intrusion is detected, the printer waits no more than a minute to cancel pending print jobs, automatically restarts, and then returns the printer to a secure state. HP Customer Support.
