Manage data watermarks

Data watermarks display user-identifying information on NineData console pages in the current organization. They help discourage unauthorized screenshots or printed copies and make leaked screenshots easier to trace.

Overview​

When data watermarks are enabled, NineData embeds watermark text that contains information about the signed-in user on console pages. The watermark remains visible in screenshots or printouts, which helps organizations trace leaked page images back to the account that accessed the page.

Behavior​

  • Automatic watermark embedding: When users access the NineData console, NineData displays a watermark that contains information about the current user.
  • Screenshot and print traceability: When users take screenshots or print console pages, the watermark is included in the captured or printed content.
