# Dynamic Watermark Display

#### **What is Dynamic Watermark Display?**

Dynamic Watermark Display is a Data Loss Prevention (DLP) capability in FenixPyre that overlays traceable user information on the screen when a FenixPyre encrypted file is open. The watermark is transparent and moves with the application window.

Dynamic Watermark Display is part of FenixPyre's DLP suite, alongside Clipboard Protection, Print Protection, and Screenshot Protection.

***

#### **What Problem Does Dynamic Watermark Display Solve?**

Not every leak happens through software. A user can photograph their screen with a phone or camera, capturing sensitive content in a way that on-device controls cannot block. Dynamic Watermark Display helps prevent and deter these physical, photo-based data leaks by overlaying identifying information directly on the content, so any captured image can be traced back to the user and device that displayed it.

***

#### **How Does It Work?**

When enabled, Dynamic Watermark Display:

* Displays the user ID, email address, IP address, or custom text configured from the admin dashboard.
* Shows transparent watermark text that moves with the application window on the screen.
* Allows administrators to configure watermark opacity, font size, and density.

Administrators control the watermark content, style (font style and font size), and opacity from the user policy, and can preview the watermark text before applying it.

***

#### **Use Cases**

* **Deterring photo-based leaks:** Visible, attributable watermarks discourage users from photographing sensitive content on screen.
* **Traceability and accountability:** If a screen photo does surface, the embedded user, email, IP, or device information helps identify its source.
* **Regulated and high-sensitivity environments:** Adds an additional layer of protection where sensitive data is routinely viewed on screen.

***

#### **Configurations**

Dynamic Watermark Display uses the following Windows registry value.

Registry path: `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\FenixPyre\Parameters`

The setting uses the `REG_MULTI_SZ` type.

| Setting                   | Description                                | Example values                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
| ------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `FPDlpMonitoredProcesses` | Enforces the watermark on these processes. | `WINWORD.EXE`, `EXCEL.EXE`, `POWERPNT.EXE`, `ACRORD32.EXE`, `ACROBAT.EXE`, `ACAD.EXE`, `REVIT.EXE`, `CODE.EXE`, `NOTEPAD.EXE`, `NOTEPAD++.EXE`, `WORDPAD.EXE`, `REVU.EXE`, `REVU32.EXE`, `DWGVIEWR.EXE`, `INVENTOR.EXE` |

{% hint style="warning" %}
After changing this registry value, restart the FenixPyre services.

The change takes effect only after the restart.
{% endhint %}

***

#### **Limitations**

**Dynamic watermark displacement in Bluebeam Revu:** The dynamic watermark overlay can behave incorrectly when hovering over tabs in Bluebeam Revu. If multiple files (encrypted or unencrypted) are open in separate tabs, hovering the mouse cursor over an *inactive* tab can erroneously apply that inactive file's watermark profile to the currently *active* viewing window. **Workaround:** Click to switch to the inactive tab, then switch back to your original active tab to correct the overlay.

***

{% hint style="success" %}
Learn how to configure this from the [Dynamic Watermark Display policy](https://docs.fenixpyre.com/fenixpyre-for-admins/admin-dashboard/user-policies/policy-rules-guide#dynamic-watermark-display) settings from admin dashboard.
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.fenixpyre.com/fenixpyre-features/dynamic-watermark-display.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
