Create images that can be trusted; prevent leaks
The RICOH G800SE supports Sandisk SD WORM and Toshiba Write Once memory cards. Data stored on these cards can not be deleted or modified, making them ideal choice to replace film as original documentation in applications such as policing, fire-fighting, and defence, where the authenticity of image data may be called into question.
Password-protect the entire camera or internal memory or require a password only for USB access or to modify camera settings. Access can be granted by scanning a password barcode or entering the password using the camera’s onscreen keyboard.
Create separate user and administrator passwords. The administrator can restrict access to functions used on-site, for example to prevent unintended changes to camera settings when the camera is used in the workplace.
| Administrator | User | |
|---|---|---|
| Camera access | ● | ● |
| Menu access | ● | ● |
| Viewing internal memory | ● | ● |
| USB connection | ● | ● |
| SD-WO only | ● | ● |
| Web access | ● | ● |
Two types of SD memory cards can be password protected: SDHC and SDXC. Password-protecting memory cards prevents images falling into the wrong hands should the card be lost or stolen.
The RICOH G800SE is equipped with extremely accurate edit detection that makes digital images submitted as evidence more likely to be trusted. RSA encryption enables edit detection for entire images, which can be imported to the supplied EC1 software for a highly accurate determination of whether or not the image has been tampered with.
Date/time of recording: July 7, 2014/10:40:00
A digital signature is embedded in an image taken in edit detection mode.
Date/time of recording: August 7, 2014/10:40:00
Changes to the image, such as retouching or changing the date of recording, create inconsistencies in the digital signature.
Note: Composite image; actual display not shown.
The supplied software inspects the signature for consistency to determine whether or not the image has been modified.
