PDF ENTERPRISE RIGHTS MANAGEMENT WITH DOCUMENT AUDITING

Safeguard Enterprise PDF DRM Security delivers enterprise rights management for pdf documents. It is designed for the larger publisher or a corporate enterprise that needs to handle very large numbers of secure PDF documents, users, and publications.

Safeguard Enterprise PDF Security has all the functionality of Safeguard PDF Security (preventing pdf copying, sharing, printing, screenshots, providing document  expiry, dynamic watermarks, etc.) but with many additional pdf security, customization, and administration features.  It provides PDF DRM protection without passwords, and enables publishers to track how their documents are being used.

With Safeguard Enterprise PDF Security you can log system, user, and document activity and events (e.g. when a document is viewed or printed) and generate reports, view statistics (e.g. how many users are registered), apply batch changes (e.g. grant all users access to a document or publication in one go), and suspend documents to enforce specific document start times and usage.   User records are fully editable and also support descriptions and notes.







For publishers selling subscription services, Safeguard Enterprise PDF Security enables you to manage your subscription base effortlessly by providing individual publication expiry on a per user basis.  You can choose to display a custom document expiry message or cause redirection to a URL of your choice when or before a document expires (e.g. 5  days before document expiry, to give users ample time to renew their subscriptions).

The Safeguard Enterprise PDF Security ecommerce interface enables full automation between your web sales process(es) (payment system) and issuing of licenses and document authorizations, provides additional commands to automate the majority of administration system functions.  These actions can be performed on multiple users, documents and publications.

PROTECTING PDF DOCUMENTS

Safeguard Enterprise PDF Security offers the same easy to use GUI application as Safeguard PDF Security to create secure PDF files but with additional functionality to customize expiry and splash screen functions, specify an output folder, and enable auditing of document views and prints.


The following additional PDF DRM security and customization options are available when protecting PDF documents.

• Customizable save location (output folder)
• Document description
• Customizable expiry message or navigate users to a URL
• Display the expiry message/URL n days before a document expires
• Navigate users to a URL on unauthorized use
• Display (and specify for how long), or don't display a document splash screen
• Log document views
• Log document prints

As with Safeguard PDF Security, you can use the secure PDF Command Line Encryption utility to batch protect PDF files without user intervention.  This also provides quick and simple integration into your existing web based applications and .NET code (where PDF DRM encryption is required on-the-fly) without the need to use an API.
