Create a user security policy
You can create three types of security policies: password security (to password-protect documents), certificate
security (to encrypt documents for a list of recipients), and Adobe LiveCycle Policy Server policies. Creating policies
for password and certificate security lets you reuse the same security settings for a set of PDFs without having to
change security settings for each. The policies for password and certificate security are stored on the local computer.
When you create a user security policy using Adobe LiveCycle Policy Server, the policy is stored on a server, letting
you audit actions and change security settings dynamically. You can use Adobe LiveCycle Policy Server if your
company has licensed the software and made it available to you.
