Safeguard PDF Security by Locklizard is a PDF DRM software solution designed to protect PDF documents from unauthorized access, copying, sharing, and printing. It enables organizations and publishers to control document usage, enforce expiry, apply dynamic watermarks, and manage user permissions without relying on passwords or certificates. The system uses strong encryption and device-locked licensing to ensure that only authorized users can view protected files, both online and offline, while allowing for real-time policy changes and revocation even after distribution.
