Abstract: A document security tool includes a memory and a processor. The processor receives a first command from a first user to save a document and in response: encrypts a username, email address, and job code of the first user to produce an encrypted file, merges the encrypted file with the document, and saves the document. The processor also receives a second command to access the document and in response: determines a second user who issued the command, determines a username, email address, and job code of the second user, extracts the username, email address, and job code of the first user from the document, and grants the second user access to the document if one or more of the username, email address, and job code of the second user matches one or more of the username, email address, and job code of the first user.
