Create an in-house app and host it behind a firewall. See Creating an enterprise signed iPad viewer
app.
About entitlement and fulfillment
Entitlement is the permission to download an item. Fulfillment is the process of making entitled content available to customers for downloading.
The store (such as the Apple App Store or Google Play Store) is where viewer apps are available for downloading. You use the DPS App Builder
to create custom apps for the store. The Distribution Service is where folios are available for downloading. You use the Folio Producer to publish
folios to the Distribution Service.
Single-folio apps are downloaded entirely from the App Store. When customers download a multi-folio app and open the library, the viewer checks
the Adobe Distribution Service for folios that are available for downloading.
