Security & Access
Use this section to protect published content and control who can access your digital publications.
These guides cover password-protected access, embed restrictions, and anti-copy settings to reduce unauthorized viewing, downloading, and text extraction.
Security checklist
1) Decide whether you need access control, content protection, or both
2) Enable password protection or protected embed restrictions during publishing
3) Disable text copy and print for baseline protection
4) Use Elements template publication protection for stronger extraction resistance
5) Republish and verify protection settings on the live publication

Content protection guides
Which protection method should you use?
- Password protection: best when only approved users should open the publication
- Protected embed: best when the publication should only run on a specific website
- Disable copy/print: best for quick baseline protection against casual reuse
- Elements publication protection: best for stronger text extraction obfuscation on sensitive documents
