SharePoint: OneDrive and SharePoint – Protect PDF with password Beta
Data as of 2 hours ago (9 September 2026)
Description
SharePoint and OneDrive users can now secure their PDF files by adding protection that restricts unauthorized access through OneDrive Web. This feature allows you to set an open password, which is required to access the PDF, or an owner password, which sets permissions for actions such as printing or editing the document. This ensures your files remain secure and only accessible to authorized individuals
