Protect PDF

Add password encryption to your PDF document.

Client-Side Encryption Not Supported

SAMAST is strictly a 100% Client-Side platform. We never upload your files to any server.

Strong PDF encryption (AES-256) requires complex cryptographic operations and binary parsing that are incredibly difficult to perform securely purely inside a web browser without a backend server.

To protect your privacy, we have opted not to send your files to a server just to encrypt them. We recommend using your operating system's built-in PDF viewer or an offline desktop app to securely encrypt your documents.
