1.2 About SecurDisc Viewer

SecurDisc Viewer is a standalone application that is part of the SecurDisc technology plat-

form. This is the only application that allows you to open PDF documents that have been

password-protected against unauthorized access using SecurDisc and/or protected against

unauthorized duplication using the special SecurDisc duplication protection feature.

The SecurDisc duplication protection feature lets you effectively control the distribution of e-

lectronic documents since copy-protected documents (only PDFs at this time) can only be

read, not copied i.e. they cannot be edited or sent electronically.

Files protected using SecurDisc can only be distributed using an original DVD which is read

by the recipient with the help of a SecurDisc drive and the SecurDisc Viewer application. The

files cannot be copied or saved under another name.

SecurDisc Viewer is available as a free download at www.securdisc.net
