Screen capturing is an indispensable tool for organizations, as it enables remote workers to communicate effectively with their colleagues. However, screen capturing comes with a unique challenge: When streaming or screen sharing, employees might accidentally reveal confidential corporate information to unauthorized colleagues or clients who could then screenshot that information and leverage it for malicious purposes.

MetaDefender Endpoint Security SDK enables developers to create a solution to this challenge thanks to its powerful Anti-Screen Capture (ASC) capabilities.

MetaDefender Endpoint Security SDK is a powerful endpoint security software development platform that enables software developers to add advanced endpoint security capabilities into their solution. The anti-screen capture capability is a native feature that developers can seamlessly integrate into their solution, preventing screen captures on certain websites. Copying and pasting are also disabled to protect sensitive data.

The anti-screen capture capabilities for MetaDefender Endpoint Security SDK prevents users from taking screenshots while accessing any website and applications, including Slack and Zoom.

In the video below, we demonstrate how you can integrate the Anti-Screen Capture capability into a browser extension. By doing so, it gives you the ability to enable or disable this technology based upon which website is being viewed in the browser. This can easily be used to make sure that sensitive data such as HR data and financial statements is not accidentally or maliciously leaked outside the organization.

Watch the video below to see how.
