2 Hardware and Physical Security
2.1 Volatile Memory
The Fiery server uses volatile RAM for the CPU’s local memory 
and for the operating system, Fiery system software and image 
data’s working memory. Data that is written to RAM is held while 
the power is on. When the power is turned off, all data is deleted.
2.2  Non-Volatile Memory and Data Storage
The Fiery server contains several types of non-volatile data 
storage technologies to retain data on the Fiery server 
when the power is turned off. This data includes system 
programming information and user data.
2.2.1  Flash Memory
Flash memory stores the self diagnosis and boot program 
(BIOS) and some system configuration data. This device is 
programmed at the factory and can be reprogrammed only 
by installing special patches created by EFI. If the data is 
corrupted or deleted, the system does not start. 
A portion of the flash memory also is used to record the  
use of dongle to activate Fiery software options. 
No user data is stored on this device, and the user does  
not have data access on it.
2.2.2 CMOS
The battery-backed CMOS memory is used to store the 
server’s machine settings. None of this information is 
considered confidential or private. Users may access these 
settings on a Windows
®
 7 Professional Server via the FACI 
(local monitor, keyboard and mouse) kit if installed.
2.2.3 NVRAM
 
There are a number of small NVRAM devices in the  
Fiery server that contain operational firmware. These devices 
contain “non-customer specific” operational information. The 
user does not have access to the data contained on them.
2.2.4  Hard Disk Drive
During normal print and scan operations as well as during  
job management information is created, image data is 
written to a random area on the Hard Disk Drive (HDD).
Image data and job management information can be deleted 
by an Operator or at the end of a pre-set time period, so 
image data becomes inaccessible. 
To protect the image data from unauthorized access,  
EFI provides a Secure Erase feature (see section 6.2.4). 
Once enabled by the system administrator, the selected 
operation is carried out at the appropriate time to securely 
erase deleted data on HDD.
2.2.5  Physical Ports
The Fiery server can be connected through the following 
external ports:

USB storage devices 
can be turned off 
through Windows’ 
Group Policy.
2.3 Local Interface
The user can access the Fiery functions via the FACI kit (if 
enabled on a Windows 7 Professional server) or via the Fiery 
LCD on Fiery servers. Security access on the Fiery Server 
with FACI kit is controlled through Windows administrator 
password if the FACI kit is enabled. The Fiery LCD provides 
very limited functions that do not impose any security risk. 
2.4  Removable HDD Kit Option 
The Fiery server supports a Removable Hard Disk Drive 
option kit for increased security. This kit provides the user 
with the ability to lock the server drive(s) into the system for 
normal operation and the ability to remove the drives to a 
secure location after powering down the server.
2.4.1  For External Servers
Fiery servers support a Removable Hard Disk Drive option kit. 
Whether this option kit is available for a specific Fiery product 
depends on the terms of EFI’s development and distribution 
agreements with its individual engine manufacturers.
2.4.2  For Embedded Servers
Integrated Fiery servers can only offer a removable HDD 
as an option through an authorized Fiery dealer because 
the mounting location and brackets for the multifunction 
printer (MFP) must be developed jointly with the engine 
manufacturer. The option kit is to take the internal HDD 
out from embedded chassis and mount to an external and 
separately powered enclosure.
