Secure / Protect Flash SWF Files with Flashguard Flash Security


Flashguard Flash Security stops unauthorized distribution of your flash files (SWF), controls what users can do with them, and how long they can be used.  


Protect Flash Files



Flashguard Flash Security protects your flash source code (scripts, images, multimedia) from being decompiled, and your displayed flash content against unauthorized use and misuse.

It secures flash files against unauthorized:

  • viewing
  • copying
  • sharing
  • modifying
  • saving
  • printing
  • screenshots (stops windows print screen and third party screen grabbers)
  • decompiling (multimedia objects, images and scripts that make up your source files are protected against editing and use)


You decide:

  • when flash files expire (never, a number of views, a number of days, a fixed date)
  • if flash files should be revoked
  • if user accounts expire
  • whether users can view secure swf files offline or only when connected to the Internet
  • whether users can view secure flash files in thin client and virtual environments

HOW FLASHGUARD FLASH SECURITY DIFFERS FROM OBFUSCATION PRODUCTS

Obfuscation products are designed only to protect your ActionScripts and can be problematic - see the Adobe Flash forum on flash obfuscation and SWFs not working.  Your flash animation and images are NOT protected and can be easily copied either from screen or by decompiling the SWF file.  Obfuscation does not control who can view your flash files how long they can be viewed, or whether they can be printed.  Put simply, obfuscation products are a poor protection against SWF theft.

Flash Security that Protects your Intellectual Property



 Elearning security for online training course providers

Due to the multimedia capabilities and portability of flash, flash has become the technology of choice for training course companies.  Existing video (avi, mpeg, mpg, wmv, mov, mp4) and sound (mp3, wav) can be easily converted into flash using any number of flash conversion tools available on the Internet.  Or you can create elearning courses from scratch using tools such as Camtasia Studio that outputs to a single SWF file.

Flashguard Flash Security ensures that your customers are always using the latest course materials, and that they continue paying for access.  You can even provide time and print limited courses at a lower cost.  Distribute your elearning courses securely across the web, including partner sites, without fear of your intellectual property being stolen and revenue lost.

   SWF security for web design companies

Flashguard Flash Security is perfect for companies that design and sell flash components, advertising, banners, and video clips for web sites.

You can ensure that no one can gain access to your source code, and that your flash files are not used without your permission.  You can control how long your secure flash files can be viewed without even having to remember to remove them from your web site or from your customer's computers.

Now you can showcase flash animations to your customers without worrying that they might use it at a later stage without paying you the fees you are entitled to.



   Flash game security for developers

If your company produces flash games then you will be well aware that they can be easily ripped off, edited, and then sold or presented as someone else's work.  Even if you use obfuscation, there are hundreds of programs available on the Internet that can decompile your code (turn your SWF file back into an FLA project file for editing).

Flashguard Flash Security completely encrypts your source code so that it cannot be decompiled.  Your SWF files are always stored fully encrypted with US Government strength AES 256 bit encryption.  Encrypted SWF files are only ever decrypted in memory.  Your nested scripts, objects, images, and animation are fully protected at all times, ensuring your secure flash games remain your property and not someone else's.



  PowerPoint security for PowerPoint Presentations

Flashguard Flash Security can be used to protect PowerPoint presentations by converting them to flash (SWF) using PowerPoint to Swf Converter or a similar product.  You can protect MP3 audio, MP4 video, and multiple flash videos all within a single SWF file (Powerpoint only links to external resources and forces you to enable insecure ActiveX for flash).

Flashguard Flash Security is not only more flexible, but more secure compared to the alternatives available for PowerPoint protection.  See how Flashguard Flash Security compares to other PowerPoint Security products.




Flash Security that is Easy to Use



  Secure flash files in one action

To secure swf files, right click on them in Windows File Explorer and select the secure flash access rights.  You always secure flash files locally on your computers and you host them.  LockLizard never have or need access to either your original files or your secure files.

There is no limit to the number of files you can secure or to the number of users that can view your secure flash files.  You pay the same price regardless.

Use of publications ensures minimum administration overheads and enables you to effortlessly manage your customer base.



  Protect flash file distribution

Distribute your secure flash files just like any other file - upload them to your web site or send them out on CD-ROM, DVD, etc., knowing that they will always be protected.  It does not matter who downloads your secure flash files because they can't be viewed unless users have been authorized.



  Administration system

A simple to use web-based administration system lets you control access to your secure flash files, and you can revoke access in real-time even after distribution.

Choose to host the administration system on your own server, or make use of our fully hosted server options and import of existing customer data ensure that you can be up and running in less than 5 minutes.  There are no scripts to write, applications to build, or servers to configure. 



  Ecommerce integration

Flashguard Flash Security e-commerce integration module works with your existing ecommerce system to help provide 24x7 delivery of your protected information.

On successful purchase, customer information is automatically entered into the administration system (without the need for manual input) and license files are emailed to your customers so they can start using your secure flash files straight away.
