An electronic document transformation and sharing system and apparatus that allows a document originator control over an electronic document shared with at least one recipient. An input device receives an original electronic document and associated document-specific controls instructions. By transformation, a new encrypted transformation document with embedded transaction ID and controls instructions is created from an original electronic document. A recipient, if authorized, may view the encrypted transformation document after decryption within the limits set by the controls instructions. For each authenticated authorized viewer, their unique identity authentication information is made visible to them in the form of covert and/or overt markings to deter the authorized viewer from leaking the information. In the event of a leak, the system enables identification of the authorized viewer responsible for the leak, even if the leak is propagated using a photo of a viewing screen where the protected and controlled document is displayed.
