It is a major achievement to finish an eBook. How do you then make your work secure and prevent your intellectual property from being stolen Many people regularly share eBooks with their affiliates unaware that they are violating copyright law whilst others make them freely available for download from torrent sites.

A secure eBook is a digital book that has had some form of security applied to it, whether it be a password, encryption, copy protection, or DRM. In terms of protection, it need not be seen any differently than a secure document.
