Dynamic Watermarking
Prevent unauthorized sharing and protect intellectual property with dynamic watermarks that are applied on the fly.
1. Viewer-Specific Dynamic Identity and Templates
Static watermarks are easily ignored or covered up. Dynamic watermarking binds each document view to the specific recipient opening it. By interpolating session metadata at the moment of request, Coneshare stamps the visitor verified email, current IP address, and access timestamp directly onto every page.
Customize the watermark template with placeholder variables like recipient email and access date, or add custom confidentiality notices. When recipients know their identity is visibly branded across the screen, casual leaking, external forwarding, and unauthorized re-sharing drop significantly.
2. Multi-Surface Anti-Leak Burn-In
A watermark that only sits on the bottom corner of a browser window is easily cropped out. Coneshare renders watermarks using a repeating diagonal matrix across the entire document canvas. The text opacity, angle, and density are balanced to maintain complete readability while making it impossible to crop or photograph a meaningful section without capturing recipient identity.
Protection remains consistent regardless of how the file is accessed. The dynamic stamp is burned directly into vector in-browser previews as well as generated PDF downloads. Even if a viewer captures an offline snapshot, every page retains verifiable provenance that traces back to their individual viewing session.
3. Granular Link Controls and Download Locks
Security requirements differ between internal advisors and external counterparties. You can toggle watermarking independently for individual links or across entire dataroom folders. Set watermarks on external pitch links while leaving clean copies for signed partners, all without duplicating underlying files.
Combine watermarking with download restrictions to create a secure preview-only environment. Recipients review high-fidelity documents directly in their browser with their identity stamped across every sheet, while raw source files remain safeguarded against offline extraction.
