Since popular web browsers dropped support for NPAPI (real) browser plugins, the only web copy protection software that can be used today that is effective against PrintScreen and screen capture is the ArtistScope Site Protection System (ASPS).ArtistScope had been developing their web browser, known as the ArtisBrowser, since 2011 to decrypt and display ASPS content delivered from web servers that use the ASPS filter. So when the popular web browsers dropped support for real browser plugins in favor of simple apps suitable for mobile phones, the ArtisBrowser was revised to make it more user friendly for normal web sites. Now the ArtisBrowser looks and feels just like the other web browsers, except for when it encounters copy protected web pages.


While the lack of browser support among the commonly used browsers may seem like a disappointment, it is actually a blessing, because now site owners cannot make the mistake of being over friendly and allowing access to their protected content to web browsers that were always designed to exploit web media. Now there can be no excuse for that mistake because today, only the ArtisBrowser can copy protect web content at system level which is where such copy protection needs to be actioned.ASPS is undoubtedly the most secure web copy protection software, because even though there are no comparative alternatives, it does provide the most complete copy protection from all avenues of exploit for all media and data including text, images and video, even from packet sniffing software. All media, that is, except normal PDF documents which will always be exposed thanks to Adobe Reader's toolbar which provides save, copy and print options that can no longer be disabled.


However to copy protect PDF displayed on web pages, PDF protection software can be used to ensure that the PDF is properly encrypted and domain locked and that only a proprietary browser reader can open and display the PDF document's contents. The best choice for PDF protection and the only PDF protection software that is truly effective that can be displayed in a web browser is the CopySafe PDF Protection software. Adding copy protection to web sites and adding protected PDF to web pages has never been easier or more secure by allowing access only for the ArtisBrowser, the only web browser that should ever be allowed near protected web content. 
For site owners using one of the popular CMS like WordPress, Drupal, Joomla or Moodle, free plugins are available for those CMS to upload and place protected media onto web pages and posts from their inline page editors.
