¿Qué es Proteger PDF?
PDFBasic's Protect PDF tool adds password encryption to your documents using industry-standard 256-bit AES encryption. Set an open password (required to view the document) and/or a permissions password (restricts printing, copying, and editing). This ensures only authorized individuals can access or modify your sensitive files.
Cómo usar Proteger PDF
Upload your PDF, set an open password and/or permissions password, choose which actions to restrict (printing, copying, editing), and click "Protect." Download your encrypted PDF — it will prompt for the password whenever someone tries to open or modify it.
