Send a 20 slide deck to a wider audience with only the ten slides meant for them.
In short
A deck shared whole gives every reader every slide. With Selective Share you pick the slides to send. The recipient gets a real deck with only those, verified before it goes out, and the rest are not in the file. Access is limited to named people.
A CEO builds one deck for two audiences. The first ten slides cover the strategy and the results, and can go to employees, partners or the public. The last ten hold the plan for the board: hiring, budget, risks and decisions that are not made yet.
Keeping two decks in step takes time, so the CEO sends the one deck and asks readers in the email to ignore the second half.
The recipient has all 20 slides. The email note is a request, and nothing in the file marks the board slides as off limits. A slide hidden in PowerPoint is still in the file, and anyone who opens it can show it again.
The deck is then forwarded to a colleague, a supplier or a partner, and from there to others.
A budget, a hiring plan or an open risk reaches staff, a supplier or a competitor before the board has met. You cannot tell who has the deck. Even when nothing leaks, you now keep two versions in step every quarter.
A second deck made by deleting slides works until someone changes the first deck and forgets the second. A PDF of the shared slides still goes out as a file anyone can forward. A password covers who can open the file, not what a reader can do with it once it is open.
You choose the ten slides and send them. The recipient gets a real presentation with only those ten slides, and the other ten are not in the file. NakodaX checks the result before it goes out and refuses the share if the check fails.
You choose who can open it and until when. A download is still a protected copy that opens only for the people you named. The board gets the full deck from the same original, and you can save the selection and reuse it when the deck changes. One send can reach up to 10 people.
You see who opened the deck and when. If you end access, every protected copy stops opening, including copies that were downloaded or forwarded.
It cannot stop someone photographing a slide on their screen. A watermark with the reader’s name and the time shows whose copy it was. It does not decide which slides are sensitive: you choose them.
