SendSafely now offers the ability to watermark PDF and image files with the recipient's email address to discourage unauthorized distribution of your most sensitive data.
Adding a watermark is a fast and easy way to add an extra layer of protection to your confidential information. Combined with our restrict file save and print feature and the ability to enforce recipient access limits, securing your data has never been more comprehensive. Watermarks can be applied to sent files, files uploaded to Dropzones and files stored in Workspaces.
Sending Items
Watermarks can be added to PDF and image files (.png, .gif, .jpg, .jpeg, .bmp) from the Advanced Settings section of the Send Items page in the SendSafely web portal. Simply toggle the Add Watermark slider to on.
Once enabled, any PDF or image included in the secure transfer will be watermarked with the recipient's email address when they view or download the file. Watermarking is applied when previewing the file in the SendSafely portal and when the file is saved by the user.
Inbound Items (Dropzones)
Any Dropzone Owner or System Administrator can turn this feature on for an individual Dropzone. When enabled, all PDF and image files uploaded to that Dropzone are watermarked with the agents email address when they access the file.
- Navigate to the Dropzone profile from the web portal menu bar
- Check the box next to the Restrict File Download (view only mode) option
- When prompted, choose Yes to limit the allowed file extensions to PDF and image files only. (You may choose to Leave as is, however any non-PDF or image files will not be watermarked.)
The watermark is applied whether the agent is viewing the file in the SendSafely web portal or in our native Help Desk Apps for Zendesk and Salesforce Service Cloud.
Workspaces
Any Workspace Owner or Manager can turn on Watermarking for an individual Workspace. When enabled, all PDF and image files uploaded to that Workspace are watermarked with the collaborators email address when they access the file.
- Access the Workspace and click the settings cog in the top right corner
- Turn on the Apply Watermarking slider
- When prompted, choose Yes to limit the Workspace to PDF and image files only. (Any other file types will need to be removed from the Workspace prior to enabling this feature)
