I have created a pdf using itextsharp. The requirement is that while sending the PDF as attachment in an email and it should be password protected.

Is there any way to make an existing pdf password protected?

    Use PdfReader in combination with PdfStamper and the setEncryption() method.

    In Java, see encryptPdf() in this example: http://itextpdf.com/examples/iia.php?id=219

    In C#, see EncryptPdf() in this example: http://kuujinbo.info/iTextInAction2Ed/index.aspx?ch=Chapter12&ex=EncryptionPdf
