Drop PDF to password-protect
PDF • Max 200MB
How It Works
Add password protection to any PDF using AES-256 encryption — the same security standard used by banks, governments, and military organizations worldwide. The encryption process runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly, so your PDF and password never leave your device.
Choose a strong password, confirm it, and download the encrypted PDF. Recipients will need the exact password to open and view the file. The original formatting, fonts, images, and all content are preserved exactly — only access is restricted.
This is a zero-knowledge encryption tool: your password exists only in your browser's memory during the encryption process and is never stored, transmitted, or logged anywhere. Even we have no ability to recover or see your password.

Under the Hood
The encryption uses the PDF 2.0 specification's AES-256 encryption handler. The user's password is used to derive an encryption key via a key derivation function, which then encrypts all stream and string objects in the PDF's object tree. The cross-reference table and metadata remain unencrypted (per spec), but all content — page streams, font data, images, and annotations — is encrypted.
