Search engine spiders and web grab applications such Xenu, Teleport Pro and others can locate any file linked to your web pages. Some applications like Adobe Acrobat can download your entire web site and publish it as a book. However ArtistScope encrypted images while they may be downloadable, cannot be viewed unless displayed from your web site.
No right click
No right click? Mouse clicking offers several options for saving or copying the page or image. Secure Image prevents right mouse click operations in several ways, depending on which applet style is used. If the standard display is used then visitor trying to right click on your image will be transported to the hyperlink that you nominate. If swap image or show text display options are used then all the visitor can do with their mouse is display the alternate message/image. They will not be able to mouse save any of the images. If no link is on the image they will find that a mouse cannot activate a menu from an ArtistScope security applet.
Domain Lock
For Domain Lock each registered site uses a unique key based on an algorithm of the domain name for the password to decrypt the image. The ArtistScope security applet checks the host that is displaying the web page to see if it matches your key before displaying the image. Domain Lock codes are not stored on the web site and therefore not retrievable by any process except by using an ArtistScope security applet. Instead Domain Lock keys are embedded into the encrypted images.
Image Encryption
The most important reason for using encrypted images is because they are protected after download by being irretrievable from the web browser's cache. Secure Image Pro encrypted images are most secure on the server and protected from distribution by your employees, webmaster and staff employed by your web host.
Watermarking images
An optional image watermark can be applied to images selectively. For example you can select which images to watermark and who the watermark will apply to, for example all Windows, Mac or Linux users.
Cache retrieval
Encrypted image retrieved for the web browser cache can only be displayed from your web site. Away from your web site the encrypted image is useless and unreadable.
Browser support
Secure Image supports all commonly used browsers on Windows, Linux and Mac computers. The software to encrypt images is also available for use on all platforms.
