PDF Document Security

Protect PDF documents against theft and misuse

DID YOU KNOW?

99% OF PASSWORDS PEOPLE USE TO PROTECT THEIR PDF DOCUMENTS CAN BE BROKEN IN UNDER A MINUTE USING FREE SOFTWARE AVAILABLE ON THE INTERNET

Once the password is broken users can freely copy, print, and distribute, resulting in a loss of intellectual property, revenue or both.

  1. Adobe PDF permissions can be easily removed regardless of how strong the password used to protect the PDF file
  2. If you want to know just how easy it is to remove PDF passwords see PDF Password Removal
  3. Systems claiming to use zero footprint or no download use standard Acrobat password security to protect your PDF documents and can therefore be easily broken.  See zero footprint solutions.
  4. Systems using plug-ins to protect your documents can be easily circumvented or conflict with other plug-ins rendering the security useless.  See PDF Plug-ins.
  5. Systems that use JavaScript to provide PDF protection could expose you to legal liabilities.  There is a good reason why Adobe recommend you disable JavaScript in Adobe Reader because it is regularly used by hackers to gain access to computers.
  6. Watermarks applied to password protected PDF files can be simply removed once a user knows or has removed the PDF password, thus rendering the watermark useless.  See PDF Watermarks.
