Abstract: This application describes a method, a device, and a computer readable recording medium for managing an externally imported file. The method may be performed by determining that a created file is a monitoring target file based on a target extension and a target process of management policy information received from a management server, collecting file information of the file in response to the file being determined as the monitoring target file, determining whether the file is an externally imported file based on the file information and network traffic information, and recording import information in the file information in response to the file being determined as the externally imported file.

Abstract: Disclosed are an apparatus and method for controlling printing using a virtual printer, and an authentication server and authentication method therefor. A virtual printing unit of the printing control apparatus encrypts data to be printed corresponding to a print command, as an input, the print command for outputting a document, and generates document information which is information on the data to be printed, and/or user information for user authentication. A user authentication unit transmits the document information and/or the user information to the authentication server for user authentication, and receives, from the authentication server, a print request command including printer identification information designated by a user and/or authentication information indicating the result of user authentication. A printing control unit decrypts the encrypted data to be printed when the print request command is received, and transmits the decrypted data to be a designated printer.

Abstract: Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for controlling printing. The present invention controls so that outputted data with respect to an outputted product is printed by varying the number of pages which are printed on each unit sheet. According to the present invention, by controlling so that the outputted data is printed by varying the number of pages that are printed on each of the unit sheets, printing material consumed in printing the outputted data, such as paper sheets, ink, and toner, can be saved.

Abstract: Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for securing printing. The present invention performs a print security action with respect to outputted data in accordance with a printing policy, when a security pattern is included in the outputted data of an outputted product. According to the present invention, by performing the print security action with respect to the outputted data in accordance with the printing policy, when the security pattern is included in the outputted data, printing of personal information and similar which is included in the outputted data can be prevented.
