PaM (Protector add-in for Microsoft Office) adds-control and security to Microsoft Word Documents and is extendible to all Microsoft Office product including email solutions. Document authors or senior staff control not only who may access a document, but what they can do with it, preventing authorized recipients from passing documents or their contents to third parties. PaM gives control over whether each recipient can view a document, whether he or she may also edit either the whole document or part of it, and prevents-screen capture. Even where editing is allowed, recipients can cut and past as normal within Word but cannot paste material into other documents or applications, making it ideal for secure collaboration on documents containing sensitive or valuable confidential information. Document authors control who can access a document and whether or not they may edit all or part of it. Documents can be delivered to the recipients) using any normal method-for example by e-mail, via a network, or on disk. PaM uses RightsServer ™ to allow rights to be updated at any time, with immediate effect, giving flexible, ongoing control and ensuring that current access and usage rights are always applied. Usage tracking allows monitoring of user behavior and document use. Document authors or senior staff control which users or user groups may access a document, and who, if anyone, may print or securely edit it. The rights of individual users or user groups may be updated or revoked at any time, and where appropriate a document may be made completely unavailable by setting start and/or expiry dates, or by adding or adjusting these if a change in circumstances means that the document becomes out of date or particularly sensitive. User-friendly interfaces allow non-technical staff to set, view and/or modify access and usage rights and monitor use easily and efficiently, offering senior staff convenience and privacy if they wish to monitor and control rights directly rather than through IT staff. http://www.aegisdrm.com/digitalrightsmanagement/benefits/Control_and_protect_word_excel_and_other_office_documents.htm
