E Learning Security – secure elearning courses from piracy & sharing

Control the devices and locations your elearning courses can be accessed from.

• Training courses are automatically locked to authorized user devices so that they cannot be shared with others – if a protected course is copied to another device it will not open

• Optionally lock use to locations (e.g. a physical training location) to prevent use on BYOD outside authorized locations – if a protected course is accessed outside an authorized location it will not open

• Control the number of devices your training courses can be used on – let users access protected courses from a single or multiple devices

DRM controls ensure your course content remains tightly under your control at all times.

• Stop screen grabbing (even from remote connections)

• Stop printing, allow printing, or limit the number of prints

• Expire training courses after a number of days use, views, prints, or on a fixed date

  By using expiry you can be certain only the latest course content can be accessed.  Training courses can be set to expire at different times for different users by changing access dates on the Safeguard Administration system.

• Revoke training courses and/or user access instantly regardless of location

When you protect training courses, you can decide to give access to all authorized users, specific users, or those with access to publications (e.g. a complete training course or set of courses).

By using publications you can add new content to existing training courses without having to assign access to individual users each time – if a user has been given access to a publication they can view any new content you publish to that publication automatically.

You can also use publicatons to bundle together multiple training courses to simplify assigning user access.

If you want to allow screen grabbing and printing then you can add dynamic watermarks to training course content.

When courses are viewed and printed, user and system information is dynamically inserted which identify the user (name, email,etc.), and shows the date/time, etc.

You only have to protect a training course once for all users rather than having to protect training courses individually for each user in order to display unique user information.

Track views and prints to see what courses users are actively using.

See when courses were opened, who viewed them, on what devices and from where.

See how often they are being used and instantly revoke access if you think they are being misused.

Ecommerce integration allows for full automation between your web sales process (payment system) and the issuing of licenses and access to courses.

Instead of having to manually enter user details into the administration system (user name, email address, protected courses they are entitled to view, etc.), the ecommerce module allows these details to be sent automatically from your ecommerce system to the Locklizard administration system, so no manual input is required.  Users therefore do not experience any unnecessary delay in receiving their license codes, and can view your protected elearning courses as soon as they have paid.

A key component of an LMS is the ability to provide coherent groups of documents to fully support the customer.  Locklizard integrates with this requirement, providing a LMS security system that allows the trainer to group together a series of protected documents as a single course, and deliver the authorization to them as a single step.  This allows Learning Management System users a simple and effective delivery of their offerings to their customers in a secure manner.

Locklizard protected PDF files integrate into any LMS system just like any other file.  You can also provide download links to the Secure PDF Viewer software and to users own license details in their own learning portal.

Unprotected content always remains under your control.

• Secure training courses on your local computer – no uploading of unprotected files to the cloud where they could be compromised

• Distribute protected training courses just like any other file – upload them to the cloud, your web site, send by email or distribute on CD, USB, etc.

Our training course copy protection software is simple to use – secure courses by right clicking on PDF files in Windows File Explorer.

The choose your copy protection options from Safeguard’s tabbed dialog.

Manage users and document access from a web portal and delegate admin duties to multiple administrators.

If you don’t want users to have to install a Viewer then you can publish training courses securely for use with our zero installation Viewers:

• USB Viewer – offline access via a USB stick.
• Web Viewer – online access via a browser.

There are no passwords or codes for users to enter.  Why you should not password protect PDF files.

Keys are transparently and securely transferred to authorized devices and locked to those devices so they cannot be shared.

No charges per course sold – just a one off fee for unlimited users and courses.
