A method of managing distribution of a document and access to its contents with security in a network having nodes is described. The nodes may have digital processors for remote communication over a wide area network and local data stores. The exemplary method includes a node sending a document in encrypted format and including a payload, and control data including destination data, access control data, and signature data, and a document destination list. The sending node may only send the document to nodes on the destination list. A node may receive the document, decrypt at least some of the document, and process the document according to the control data by extracting the control data and managing document payload access and document storage and user access according to the control data.
