Native PDF files are not truly redacted and can be easily edited.

  • Sorry but simply not true. I am currently working with redaction, using Adobe 10 Pro, and what is shown here is NOT was happens. Looks like redactions have not been applied to this doc, thats all. No security breach or issue, just a missing step in editing redaction. Truly, can be an anuware user too.

  • facepalm

  • lolololol epic fail

  • hahaha owned!

  • I think the gist of this is that the original docs weren't truly redacted correctly...if they had used Adbobe Acrobat Pro and the tool "Redact" and applied...it actually removes the data from the pdf...only black would be visible and one can't drag it away or even copy/past into another editor.

    I just wanted to point that out due to the More Info stating, "Native pdf files are not truly redacted..." because they can be if done properly.

  • okey =)

  • Fslabs, any comment on the new Koobface virus (I registered on facebook on monday LOL, its so strange how the policies have changed so sudden and about this new virus)
