A management apparatus, a management system, a server system, a remote device management system, and a data deletion request method. The management apparatus acquires apparatus identification information for identifying a processing apparatus storing device event data indicating content of an event executed by a device to be managed from one or more processing apparatuses that process the device event data and requests deletion of the device event data to the processing apparatus identified by the acquired apparatus identification information in response to a device event data deletion request.

Management apparatus, management system, server system, remote device management system, and data deletion request method

A management system, a remote device management system, a data deletion method, and a non-transitory recording medium. The management system stores in a memory, device event data indicating content of an event executed by the device and user identification information for identifying a user who requested to execute the event in association with each other, receives the device event data deletion request including the user identification information for identifying the user, from the device or a communication terminal, and deletes the device event data associated with the user identification information included in the device event data deletion request.

System and method for confidential data management

An information distribution system includes an electronic device; and a server system including at least one information distribution apparatus that communicates with the electronic device via a network. The electronic device includes an information requester configured to transmit, to the server system, a request to distribute information, the request being transmitted together with identification information of the electronic device; and an information displayer configured to display, on a display device, the information transmitted from the server system. The server system includes a contract information acquirer configured to acquire contract information relating to a contract for a service provided to the electronic device; an information generator configured to identify the contract information of the electronic device based on the identification information, and generate the information according to the contract information; and an information distributor configured to distribute the information generated by the information generator, to the electronic device.

Information distribution system and electronic device

An information processing system includes an apparatus and a server system. The server system includes an apparatus information receiving unit, a content generation unit, a content information request receiving unit, a content information transmitting unit, a content request receiving unit, and a content transmitting unit. The apparatus information receiving unit receives apparatus information. The content generation unit generates a content based on the apparatus information. The content information request receiving unit receives a content information request from the apparatus. The content information transmitting unit transmits content information that can identify one or more contents generated by the content generation unit to the apparatus. The content request receiving unit receives a content request from the apparatus. The content transmitting unit transmits the content to the apparatus.

Information processing system for distributing content in response to a request

A system according to the present invention includes a first communication unit, a second communication unit, and an executing unit. The first communication unit is connected to a first network segment. The second communication unit is connected to a second network segment different from the first network segment, and receives a processing request, which requests to execute predetermined processing, from an apparatus via the second network segment and transmits the received processing request to the first communication unit. The executing unit executes the predetermined processing in response to the processing request received by the first communication unit.

Image forming apparatus, image forming method, and computer-readable recording medium that receive a process request for performing a predetermined process from an apparatus

There is provided an information distribution system including an electronic apparatus and an information distribution apparatus connected through a network, the information distribution apparatus comprising an apparatus usage information collection unit configured to collect apparatus usage information indicating usage situation of the electronic apparatus; a distribution information generating unit configured to generate distribution information to be distributed to the electronic apparatus based on the apparatus usage information; and a distribution unit configured to distribute the distribution information to the electronic apparatus; the electronic apparatus comprising a distribution information acquiring unit configured to acquire the distribution information; and a display control unit configured to display the distribution information in a display unit of the electronic apparatus.

Information distribution system, information distribution apparatus, electronic apparatus and information distribution method

A management apparatus manages a plurality of devices. The management apparatus includes a management part that manages, for each one of the devices, one of communication systems used for carrying out communication between the management apparatus and the one of the devices and a communication data amount between the management apparatus and the one of the devices; a setting part that sets a permissible communication amount for each one of the communication systems; and a determination part that determines whether to be able to provide a service to one of the devices based on a communication data amount required for providing the service to the one of the devices, the permissible communication amount of one of the communication systems used by the one of the devices and a total of the communication data amounts of respective ones of the devices each using the one of the communication systems.
