Accountable distribution for sensitive files

Invisproof issues each recipient an individual copy of a document, image, video or recording, with a watermark that cannot be seen or heard. A copy found outside its intended audience can be identified.

Provided to organizations by approval.

Protection of confidential information against unauthorized disclosure

Invisproof issues an individual copy of a file to each recipient and allows a copy found outside its intended audience to be identified.

Unnoticeable to recipients

The watermark is invisible, and recipients read, view and listen as usual with nothing further asked of them.

Documents and media in one service

The Document Engine and the Media Engine accept the formats in which organizations already work, from documents and presentations to images, video and audio.

.pdf, .docx, .pptx, .png, .jpg, .mp4, .wav

Secure viewer

Sensitive files are opened in a secure viewer in the browser, with nothing to download and nothing to install. The organization decides which files are viewed in this way and which may also be saved.

Original formatEach copy keeps the format of the original and opens in the usual applications.
Viewing statisticsViewing statistics are kept for each file and are available to the organization.
EncryptionFiles are encrypted in transit and in storage, as is every copy that is issued.
Offline viewingA copy saved to a computer or drive can be viewed offline and keeps its watermark.

The process in three steps

Watermark

The Document Engine or the Media Engine prepares an individual copy of the file for each recipient, each with a watermark of its own.

Distribute

Each recipient receives their own copy, in the secure viewer or in the original format, and the issue of every copy is recorded.

Identify

When a copy is found outside its intended audience, an investigation identifies the copy it came from and provides a report.

What an organization gains

Sensitive material can be shared with those who need it. Because every copy remains accountable, an organization has less reason to withhold a file from the people whose work depends on it.

Made simple for the IT department

Sign-in with the organization's own accounts

Members sign in through the identity provider their organization already uses, and setup follows numbered steps for each provider.

  • Microsoft
  • Google
  • Okta
  • Other providers

Scenarios in which Invisproof is used

Papers prepared for a board or a leadership team are read by a small, known group, often before a decision is made public.

  • Board packs and strategy papers in PDF, PPTX and DOCX
  • An individual copy for each director and officer
  • Reading limited to the secure viewer where required

Alongside the controls already in place

Access controls

Invisproof takes up where access controls leave off, with the copy that each permitted person then holds.

Data loss prevention

Material stopped at the edge of the network never reaches a recipient. Invisproof is concerned with what was sent with permission.

Confidentiality agreements

An agreement records each recipient's obligation, and Invisproof supplies the means of showing which copy a disclosure came from.

After a file is shared

None of these controls is replaced. Invisproof adds an individual copy for each recipient and the identification of a copy found outside its intended audience.

Frequently asked questions

No. The watermark is invisible and is not noticeable when reading, viewing or listening. A copy keeps the format of the original and opens in the same applications.

The found file is submitted for investigation. The investigation compares it with the copies that were issued and identifies the copy it came from.

A photograph or a printout can be submitted for investigation like any other found file. The investigation states the probability that it came from a given copy; identification cannot be assured in every case.

Every result states the probability that the found file came from the copy named. Where the evidence is insufficient, the investigation reports that no copy could be identified, and what follows from a match is for the organization to decide.

It depends on the audience. Recipients inside the organization sign in with their accounts. Recipients outside it need no account: they open a file with a passcode or with a one-time code sent to their email address.

No. The organization decides, file by file, whether a copy is read in the secure viewer or may also be saved in its original format.

No. Files are held in encrypted form, and Invisproof's staff cannot open them.

Access is limited to approved organizations so that the service is not open to those who would study it in order to defeat it.

The organization may export its files, and everything is erased thirty days after it leaves.

No. Files provided by customers are not used to train models.
