ArtisBrowser

ArtisBrowser is a specially designed web browser for viewing copy protected pages delivered by the ArtistScope Site Protection System (ASPS).

While ASPS web pages are on display in ArtisBrowser, nothing can be saved, copied or otherwise exploited in any way, making it ideal for viewing online courses and intellectual property within closed groups or networks.

Copy Protection

ArtisBrowser is specially designed to copy protect data and web media when used with websites and services utilising the ArtistScope Site Protection System (ASPS), where a secure tunnel is created between the website and the user's device in which nothing can be copied or extracted in any way, not even from page source, browser cache or memory.

Platform Support

ASPS can be used for all types of websites on Windows servers running IIS and Linux servers running Apache or Nginx. ArtisBrowser versions are currently available for Windows, Mac OSX, iOS (iPhone and iPad) and Android mobile phones. Website plugins are available for popular CMS such as WordPress, Moodle, Drupal, Joomla and DNN.

Downloads

The version for your operating system (OS)can be download from artisbrowser.com

Personalisation

Language and other personal settings can be changed at any time via Preferences. 25+ languages are available for toolbar, menu and browser messages including Afrikaan, Arabic, Chinese, Croatian, Czech, Dutch, English, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Malay, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Thai, Turkish and Vietnamese.

Redistribution

ArtisBrowser is a free download to the public. Everyone is entitled to provide ArtisBrowser as a download or on disk for their web projects providing that the ArtisBrowser installer remains intact and as provided by ArtistScope. Any downloads provided by non-ArtistScope services are unlikely to be the latest version and infected by malware. Always check that the installer is code signed by ArtistScope.

History

When ASPS was first released in 2011 its web browser was known as ArtisReader to set it apart from the run of the mill browsers. While ArtisReader could view and display any web page, maay features were disabled by default for the sake of copy protection, making it unfriendly for normal surfing.

In August 2013 ArtisReader was renamed to ArtisBrowser and it wasn't only the name that changed. ArtisReader was originally forked from the Chromium browser resource and designed with many limitations. The new ArtisBrowser was forked from the Firefox browser resource and designed to function like any normal web browser, but switching to protect mode when diplaying ASPS web pages.

In April 2021 ArtisBrowser versions were released for all operating systems (OS) including Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android phones.
