VeryPDF DRM Protector for PDF document protection with PDF DRM Controls
VeryPDF DRM Protector is a robust PDF DRM solution designed to manage access and usage of your PDF files effectively. With this tool, you can protect your PDFs without relying on passwords or certificates. Prevent unauthorized copying, editing, and printing (or set print limits), while also blocking screenshots. Additionally, it ensures that your PDFs are not shared or distributed freely on the Internet. You can control document expiration, revoke access, and apply both permanent and dynamic watermarks to safeguard your content.

Secure Distribution of Documents
Distribute your protected PDFs just like any regular file while ensuring secure sharing and sales. Prevent unauthorized sharing, piracy, leakage, and theft.
VeryPDF DRM Protector ensures that your documents remain secure both in storage and during transmission. It upholds the document security policies you’ve set, even after the document has been distributed. This level of control makes VeryPDF DRM Protector a more reliable solution than traditional secure data rooms.
Dynamic Watermarks for Enhanced Security
VeryPDF DRM Protector offers dynamic watermarks that display system and user information (such as name, email address, date/time) on any protected PDF whenever it is printed or viewed. This eliminates the need to secure each file individually for each user.
These dynamic watermarks are particularly effective in preventing unauthorized photocopying or users taking pictures of the screen with mobile devices, as they identify the user directly.
Unlike traditional watermarks applied via Adobe, MS Office, or PDF editing software, Safeguard’s watermarks are permanent and cannot be easily removed.
Intellectual Property Protection with PDF DRM Security
VeryPDF DRM Protector delivers comprehensive protection for your intellectual property through a multi-layered DRM approach that doesn’t rely on password protection. A secure PDF viewer (whether installed or browser-based) enforces PDF encryption and DRM controls, ensuring that both you and your users are not vulnerable to security flaws.
If you’re looking for complete protection and scalability, VeryPDF DRM Protector is the ideal solution for you.
