User Authentication
Criterion Value Proof(s) Comment
Account management Full [9] An Epson Connect account is required for all cloud-based features, including remote printing.
Authentication Secure [10] Cloud services are protected by the Epson Connect account password. The printer's local web interface can be protected by an administrator password.
Brute-force protection Exist [11] The Epson Connect cloud service has standard server-side protections against brute-force login attacks.
Event logging Partial logging [12] The printer maintains a local history of print jobs. Cloud account access is logged by Epson's servers.
Passwords Require change after setup with complexity requirements [13] Creating an Epson Connect account requires a password with complexity rules. Setting an admin password on the printer itself is a recommended security practice.
