Piracy concerns (Are Storyline stories encrypted?)

Hi Armand,

The Storyline output is not encrypted, but I hope that the community will share suggestions on what they've done to protect their content here with you. 

Thank you Ashley,

Hopefully someone has found a way to protect the content.

Hello, 
I am waiting as well for such suggestion and this is the only reason I cant use articulate product for my projects.

Hope a solution soon.  

Thanks for your feedback Sarfaraz! Most users who need secure content are utilizing an LMS or Articulate Online so that the content is protected.

You can download a free trial of Articulate Online here.

Thanks for your reply Leslie!

But I want my customers to use my learning content offline. That means, My customer will download the elearning content and they will applying a code (or anything else to lock the content to the very computer so that my customer cant use them in other computer). I am worried whether I can do all these with Articulate or Articulate can provide any better offline security so that all my customers who cant access internet all the time can use my learning content.

Waiting for soonest response!

You can only download to the iPad and then it cannot be installed on another iPad without using the link provided.

Hello Sarfaraz we are using HTML Executable to protect out content and it has been very good you can check this link out

Sarfaraz, am happy I was able to help. 

Hi Phil Mayor,

I see this thread is a bit old, but can you tell me more about what you said on downloading the content on the costumers ipad.

How can I be sure costumers wont download it on other devices. 

Hi Fabio,

This thread is much older, so I'm not certain Phil is subscribed (although he's still a regular here in the forums). If you've loaded the course up in an LMS, likely the user needs to sign in to access the course, so if they're able to sign in on another device, they could download it there as well to the mobile player. If you're publishing for HTML5, the users will need to load up in HTML5 each time so that may likely be the way to ensure they don't download it. 

Hi, Ashley. If I load a course I created with Storyline Rise up in an LMS can people download it? Thanks.

Hi Diego, 

I'd pose that question to your LMS to see what they have in terms of encryption or functions to stop users from downloading files. There isn't anything built into Storyline or Rise's published output to prevent (or allow) a user to download the SCORM or source files (source files also aren't included in published output).
