The process of encryption scrambles data in such a way that the original information can only be recovered using a corresponding decryption process and the correct key. Encryption and decryption are common techniques in cryptography and the scientific discipline behind secure communications.
Web page encryption
ArtistScope Web Encrypt doesn’t rely on JavaScript which provides easy access to the encryption algorithm used and its unlock key. Instead Web Encrypt uses server side code behind the web page that is not accessible to the public, thus providing the security that your sensitive data and information demands.
The advantages of using encrypted web pages
The main advantage of using web page encryption is that if the web page also checks that a visitor is actually using a web browser and properly visiting otherwise page will be inaccessible. By "inaccessible" meaning that it cannot be read by the numerous softwares available today designed specifically to download your web pages and even copy your entire web site.
The main advantage of using ArtistScope Web Encrypt is that usually one has to encrypt their web pages offline because their encryption software only runs on their local computer. Then you have to upload the encrypted web pages which becomes an even bigger chore when you want to make even the smallest modification. But with ArtistScope Web Encrypt your editing is performed online, from your web site, and the page is saved directly to your database online. So when you want to make even the smallest change to a page, you simply open it online in the page editor, make your changes online and then save it back to your database, enabling you to make quick changes within seconds instead of taking several minutes.
Because the HTML will not display then any links pointing to images and other media files are also protected and cannot be downloaded... that is until you allow the page to download and decrypt to display is original form. ArtistScope Web Encrypt uses a special 64-bit private-key algorithm similar to DES, which is impossible to hack without at least having the algorithm used or the key for decryption.

Page tracking
Your tracking page will show you the current visitors to your pages in the last 2 hours. It refreshes to update and show which users are currently visiting which page and how long they spent on the last page.
Expiry dates
When setting expiration for a web page, the expiry date is stored on record and can be changed at any time. Expiry dates will expire at midnight of that day according to GMT. If no expiry is to be set, leave this field blank.
Online web page creation

Using the inbuilt page maker you can create new web pages with full control over the html format. You can upload images, embed Flash and video, set expiration dates and more. When your page is saved it is encrypted and added to your database. Click for more information about the inbuilt WSIWYG page editor.
Creating header and footer templates
Creating header and footer templates is simple. First thing to do is find an existing web page that has the content and layout that you want use. Then open your selected page in a web browser and save the page as "html only". Do not save as "whole page" because it will save all images and change the image links to point to a new folder. You don't want that so simply save as html only and then you will only have the html with the links as they should be.
For more detailed instruction is creating header and footer templates see the installation notes.
Sterilizing text input to remove unwanted formatting
Whenever writing content to add to web pages, a good practice to get into is finally dipping your text into Notepad to remove all the unwanted formatting specifications that programs like Word will add to text. Copy'n'pasting directly from Word into most html editors in preview mode (and the same applies when pasting into our page editor) you will end up with a lot of hidden code that if anything will ruin whatever text format you have in mind. So first copying to Notepad and then copying from Notepad will remove all of the unwanted rubbish.
Other web page encryption solutions
