What Is Password Protected PDFs & Access Code Verification?
Protect sensitive documents with password-protected PDFs and access code verification. Set a custom access code that the recipient must enter before they can view or sign the document. Share the access code through a separate channel (phone call, text, in-person) for two-factor authentication. Ideal for confidential agreements, healthcare documents, financial records, and any document where signer identity verification is critical.
How Does Password Protected PDFs & Access Code Verification Work?
When sending a document, toggle 'Access Code Protection' -> enter a custom access code (e.g., a 4-6 digit PIN or custom passphrase) -> send the document. The recipient receives the signing link but must enter the access code before the document opens. Share the access code with the recipient through a separate channel for additional security. The access code verification is recorded in the audit trail.
