Enhancing the Security of Electronic Files
6C6U-063
Digital files are vulnerable in terms of security because they can be easily viewed or
tampered with leaving no trace. When scanning important documents, you can take
appropriate measures such as encrypting data and adding a device signature to
enhance security.

Encrypting a PDF File
