New licensing feature for Lizard Safeguard PDF Security enables LockLizard customers to easily identify who a license file belongs to, saving time and costs when implementing the LockLizard DRM PDF security solution.
(1888PressRelease) August 13, 2008 - LockLizard have extended the functionality of their Lizard Safeguard pdf protection product by adding personalized license files in order to easily identify who a license file belongs to.
“This feature has already been put into use by one of our industrial machinery suppliers when moving to digital information distribution,” noted Dr. Mathews, Chairman of LockLizard. “They needed to be able to set up multiple licenses for over 1,200 dealers and distributors for a new launch. However, they wanted to integrate issuing licenses with their existing web interface so that their dealers had a single, common interface with them, and not confuse them with multiple points of contact.
Since the license files now show the dealer’s names, they were easily generated, and collected and organized internally by the manufacturer. That meant that as the manufacturer’s new electronic service went live, dealers received the announcement over their existing web portal. Dealers could pick up their license details directly from the web site using their existing interface for communications.
So it’s a ‘win win’ for everyone. The manufacturer knows who the license is for and can make sure it is in the right place to be collected. The dealers retain a single point of contact and information and don’t need to change the business processes they already have established. And the manufacturer has cut out printing costs, distribution costs, can deliver rapidly, and can issue new information immediately. Big cost savings!”
Previously, when a Publisher issued a license file to one of their customers, the license file simply identified itself as being a Lizard Safeguard license. With immediate effect, license files issued by all Publishers to their customers will be personalized with the recipients name.
This also helps corporate IT departments who may have to implement licenses for different people in the organization as part of their own internal procedures. They can now readily match the license files they are provided with to the intended recipients.
LockLizard are continuing to update their product set, and to add additional features and functionality.
