Abstract
The present disclosure discloses methods and systems providing a secure scanning. A method includes receiving a document for scanning, by a multi-function device, wherein the multi-function device is configured with an identity key, wherein the multi-function device is enabled with a secure scanning feature. An image data corresponding to the document is generated. A scanned document corresponding to the image data is generated. Then, content of the scanned document is encoded with the identity key of the multi-function device, to secure the content in the scanned document, wherein the content of the scanned document is accessible only at a device having the identity key. The device can be the same multi-function device that encodes the content of the scanned document. The device can be a different multi-function device but configured with the same identity as of the multi-function device.
