Abstract
A scanner device that optically reads an image comprises a protect specification data detection unit that detects a protect specification data which is contained in the read image to request protection of image data of the image. A protected image data creation unit encrypts the image data of the image containing the protect specification data, in response to a detection signal of the protect specification data detection unit that indicates that the protect specification data in the image has been detected, so that a protected image data is created.
