  • Patent number: 11470082
    Abstract: An authentication server is connected to a client device via a network and includes: an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) that supplies power to the authentication server upon interruption of a main power supply; a storage that stores a database including: a piece of user information of a user of the client device; and a piece of authentication information for the user to log into the client device or a predetermined server on the network via the client device; and a processor that, once the UPS starts to supply the power to the authentication server, transmits to the client device the piece of authentication information corresponding to the piece of user information before the authentication server is shut down.

  • Patent number: 10445031
    Abstract: An image forming system includes: an ID terminal that stores a public key and a secret key and that outputs the public key and the secret key to an external device when the ID terminal authenticates a user; an image forming apparatus that prepares a log data relating to printing; a storing device that stores the log data prepared by the image forming apparatus; an information processing device that authenticates the user by using the ID terminal; and a log viewing device that authenticates the user by using the ID terminal. When the information processing device receives a print instruction for printing a predetermined print data from the authenticated user, the information processing device transmits a print job to which the public key obtained from the ID terminal is added, to the image forming apparatus. The image forming apparatus receives the print job to which the public key is added.
