Client-Side PDF Encryption and Document Security
Secure your PDF files with a password or remove password protection from PDFs you already own. Our tool runs entirely in your browser, ensuring your sensitive documents are never uploaded to the cloud.
How to Use
- To Encrypt: Select the 'Add Password' tab, upload your PDF, set a strong password, configure optional security settings (like restricting printing or copying), and click 'Encrypt & Protect PDF'.
- To Decrypt: Select the 'Remove Password' tab, upload an encrypted PDF, provide the current password, and click 'Decrypt & Remove Password'.
- Once processing is complete, download your newly secured or unlocked PDF.
Key Features & Benefits
- Military-Grade Encryption: We use standard 128-bit and 256-bit AES encryption algorithms to ensure your files are completely secure.
- Local Processing: Since decryption and encryption happen locally, even we cannot see your passwords or the contents of your documents.
- Granular Security Controls: When encrypting, you can explicitly disable printing and text copying to prevent unauthorized distribution.
- Instant Decryption: Remove password prompts from your bank statements or pay slips so you don't have to type the password every time you open them.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you unlock a PDF if I forgot the password?
No. Our tool is not a password cracker. You must know the current password to unlock and remove the encryption from a PDF.
Is it safe to process my bank statements here?
Yes! Your files are never actually 'uploaded'. They are read and processed directly by your web browser on your own computer.
Will the encryption work on all devices?
Yes, standard PDF encryption is universally supported by Adobe Acrobat, Apple Preview, web browsers, and all modern PDF readers.
