If you are evaluating Lizard Protector, you need to follow all the steps on this page, including creating a customer account for yourself on the administration system so that you can view your protected content. Failure to do so will result in you not being able to view the content you have protected.

STEP 1:  Download and Install Lizard Protector Administrator


web content protection


The latest software can be downloaded from here.   You will need to fill out some details such as your name and email address so that a 15 day trial license can be automatically generated for you on the licensing server and the registration license file sent to your email address.  Once you have downloaded the software, double-click on the .exe file to install it.




STEP 2:  Register Lizard Protector Administrator

Before you can start using the administrator software you must first register it.  The license file required for registration (protector_license.plw) will have been emailed to you when you filled out your details for a 15 day trial.

The license file is contained in a zip file so that it does not get stopped by firewalls. Double-click on this file in your email application, select the 'Open It' option, and then the OK button.  Then double-click on the protector_license.plw file. This will start the registration process and confirm your publisher record in the administration system.  A message dialog confirms successful registration.  You are now ready to start protecting your web content.




STEP 3: Protect your web content

From the Windows Start menu, open the Lizard Protector administrator GUI (Start > Programs > LockLizard > Lizard Protector > Protect Content).

protect content


The following dialog will be displayed:


secure web content


Select the appropriate access rights from the tabbed dialog.  For detailed use, please refer to the product manual or use the help feature in each tab.


On selection of the publish content button, your files will be protected and the digital rights management controls you set will be applied.

Your protected files will be saved to the folder you specified in the product settings output folder.  Files protected with Lizard Protector Web Content Security are saved with a .hsf extension and will incorporate the original file extension in the new filename.  For example, image1.gif will become image1-gif.hsf.  This is so you can always tell the original file format of your protected files.




STEP 7:  Generate customer licenses

From the Lizard Protector Administrator menu (off the Windows Start > Program Files) select the Administration System to start generating customer licenses.

This opens up a web page where you enter user names and email addresses (Create Customer Accounts).

When you create customer accounts, the license files are automatically generated and emailed to users.




STEP 8:  Send protected products to your customers

Now you are ready to send your protected products (collection of HSF files) to users by email or publish them on a CD-ROM, memory stick, or from your web site.

STEP 2:  Register with your Publisher

Your publisher will have sent you an email containing your license file (protector_license.plv).  The license file is contained in a zip file so that it does not get stopped by firewalls.  Double-click on this zip file in your email application, select the 'Open It' option, and then the OK button.  Then double-click on the protector_license.plv file.  This will start the registration process and confirm your user record in the administration system.  A message dialog confirms successful registration.

STEP 3:  View the protected web content

Once you have registered you can double-click on an HSF file (file protected with Lizard Protector Web Content Security) in Windows Explorer.  

Alternatively, you can copy and paste the URL of a protected file directly into the secure viewer's address bar, or just click on a link to a protected file in your browser.

The protected web content is transparently decrypted and displayed in the secure viewer.


encrypt web content



Once registered, any other products protected for you in the future will be transparently decrypted and displayed in the secure viewer - this process is totally transparent - you won't even realize they are encrypted.  Decryption keys are transparently relayed to the client computer if you have been given access to view a protected product.  If you do not have access to a protected product then a dialog box will be displayed with the publisher contact details and you will not be able to view the protected content.
