One of my clients dealing with politically sensitive information using MS Office 2000, 2002 primarily with a couple users running 2003. Desktop operating systems are Win2k and XP Pro.
One of the features staff like to use is the "insert comment" function as they work on revisions of documents. This got me thinking about document meta data/document sercurity and information leakage as per this article http://www.fcw.com/article93983-04-10-06-Print Just wondering how y'all allow the colloborative features internally, but stop the meta data from leaving the office? I want to make it easy for the users, AND allow them to safely converse with the outside world. We've recently started using PDFCreator on all the workstations for outputting documents, I was thinking pdf's were a more secure way of distributing the information, but then I remembered that big court case with Adobe against the Russian fellow who designed software that got around the encryption and security in pdf documents...
