[ Protect ]
We protect an image file by using Azure RMS with only view permission. Besides that, we set
- document to expire on next day
- Notify us when other open the document
- Set to allow revoke access
Document was sent to 1 person (example: Hock Seng) and also to other people ( cannot open the document due to no permission)
