In an era where digital content dissemination is increasingly convenient, issues such as random copying of demos, leakage of external documents, and sharing of paid content among multiple people have become major concerns for enterprises and creators. Two tools from Gilisoft – Copy Protection and DRM Protection – are designed to address these pain points. This article will help you understand their differences and quickly find the right content protection solution for yourself.
Gilisoft Copy Protection: Solving the Problem of Preventing Copying in Demo Distribution and External Document Sharing
Which Scenarios Is It Suitable For?
If you often need to send demos, contract documents, and design drafts externally and are worried about others copying and misappropriating them, then Gilisoft Copy Protection is for you. It supports protecting a wide range of file formats, such as .exe installation packages of software demos, PDF contracts, PPT plans, JPG/PNG design drawings, and even text in Word documents. You can set it to prohibit copying, printing, and saving as.
For example, when a software company releases a trial demo, after encrypting it with this tool, users cannot copy the installation package for secondary distribution; when a designer sends a draft to a client, the client wants to directly copy elements from the picture? It’s impossible; when an enterprise sends technical documents to partners, it can restrict the other party to only view them and not copy the text elsewhere.
What Pains Can Its Core Functions Solve?
- Prevent Basic Misappropriation: Block simple operations such as “copy-paste”, “right-click save as”, and “print” to avoid low-cost misappropriation of content.
- Simple Operation: Import files, check the functions to be restricted, and generate protected files in a few minutes without learning complex technologies.
Gilisoft DRM Protection: Achieving One Device One Code Authorization and Solving the Problem of Preventing Sharing of Paid Content
Is It Suitable for You Who Create Paid Content?
If you are engaged in paid courses, charged software, and digital films and television and are worried about “one account being used by multiple people” or “being shared throughout the company after one purchase”, you need to rely on the one device one code authorization of Gilisoft DRM Protection. It binds the content to the user’s device and generates a unique authorization code. Only authorized devices can use it, fundamentally preventing sharing.
For example, online education institutions selling courses can use it to restrict “one student account to only watch videos on 3 devices”; software developers selling paid tools can bind the user’s computer hardware ID, so that others can’t activate even if they get the installation package; film and television platforms releasing paid movies can prohibit screen recording and set “viewable within 30 days after purchase”, which will automatically become invalid after expiration.
What Key Problems Can Its Core Functions Solve?
- Precise Authorized Charging: Bind devices or accounts through one device one code to ensure “who pays, who uses” and avoid multi-account sharing.
- Full-Link Protection: Not only prevent copying, but also restrict the number of playing devices, time limit, and times. Even if the content is transmitted elsewhere, it can’t be used without authorization.
Quick Comparison: Choose Copy Protection or DRM Protection?
| Usage Scenario | The Right Choice |
| Sending demos and documents, preventing copying | Gilisoft Copy Protection |
| Creating paid content, needing authorized charging | Gilisoft DRM Protection |
Summary: Choose the Right Tool to Solve Content Protection Problems
In short, use Copy Protection if you are afraid of copying when sending free content; use DRM Protection if you need authorized charging for paid content. Choosing according to your actual scenario can effectively protect the security of digital content and avoid unnecessary losses.
