Pharos Secure Release – Installation & Mobile Setup Guide
Overview
Pharos Secure Release allows NTT workforce to securely submit print jobs and release them only after authenticating, in person, at a printer using a mobile device and QR code. Authentication is performed using Okta credentials to prevent unauthorized printing and protect sensitive documents. There are four printers in the SV1 facility as well as many printers in various NTT Data facilities around the world. We all use the same secure print solution.
