Image processing apparatus to which security policy is applicable, control method therefor, and storage medium storing control program therefor

摘要

An image processing apparatus that is capable of appropriately applying security policy data based on an information security policy. Security policy data containing a policy name of a security policy and a security policy setting value corresponding to the policy name is applied to the image processing apparatus. An obtaining unit obtains updating security policy data for updating the security policy data. An application version determination unit determines whether the updating security policy data obtained by the obtaining unit will be applied according to a predetermined application version setting value, when a version of the updating security policy data differs from a version of security policy data that is being applied actually. An application unit applies the updating security policy data when the application version determination unit determines that the updating security policy data will be applied.

1. An image processing apparatus to which security policy data containing a policy name of a security policy and a security policy setting value corresponding to the policy name is applied, comprising:
a storage unit configured to store instructions; and a processor operable when executing the instructions to:
obtain updating security policy data for updating the security policy data,determine whether the updating security policy data will be applied according to a predetermined application version setting value, when a version of the updating security policy data differs from a version of security policy data that is being applied actually, andapply the updating security policy data when the it is determined that the updating security policy data will be applied, wherein the security policy data contains a security policy setting value corresponding to a user mode setting value that is set by a user, wherein the storage unit stores a conversion table in which the user mode setting value, the security policy setting value corresponding to the user mode setting value, and the policy name are associated one another, and wherein the security policy setting value corresponding to the user mode setting value is applied after being converted to the user mode setting value using the conversion table.
