Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided. Some embodiments include initiating a scan operation to generate an electronic document representing a scanned physical document, encrypting the electronic document, storing the encrypted electronic document, and outputting a message. The message may include location information for locating the encrypted electronic document, a key for decrypting the encrypted electronic document, and restriction information indicating a restriction associated with the encrypted electronic document. Some embodiments include receiving the message, using the location information to obtain the encrypted electronic document, decrypting the encrypted electronic document using the key to generate an unencrypted electronic document, presenting an image of the unencrypted electronic document on a display of a computing system, and restricting availability of at least one function or feature of the computing system in accordance with the restriction information.
