Frequently asked questions

How do I put a password on a PDF?

Upload your PDF, set an open password, and NamahaPDF encrypts the file with AES-256 so it can only be opened by someone who enters the correct password.

How strong is the encryption?

The PDF is locked with AES-256, the same encryption standard used for sensitive data in banking and government systems.

Is my password or file sent to a server?

No. Encryption happens entirely in your browser, so neither your password nor your document ever leaves your device.
