Board Pack Password Protection

Securing Board Packs 

BoardCloud allows for the password protection of board packets as an option. This ensures that if a PDF board pack ends up in the wrong hands, it will be virtually impossible for any reasonably competent hacker to open it. (Read why below)

There are two password options available: Document Password protection and Functionality Password protection.

Document Password Protection

If filled in, it will require the entry of a password in order to read a board packet.

Document Functionality Security

The entry of a functionality password will prevent (among others) editing or copying of document content.

Below is a view of the specific options available:

The image below shows a document that has its functionality password set and then opened in the BoardCloud PDF viewer.

Note that the edit bar, which normally sits below the navigation bar, is missing. Also, the hand cursor will be enabled in place of the normal selection tool.
