PROTECTION PRINCIPLE
Software protection in four easy steps
CodeMeter is quick and simple to implement, and provides
secure and long-term protection with appropriate license
models. In just a few steps, unprotected software is
converted into an encrypted application with a flexible
license model based on your needs.
The overall process of software encryption comprises four
simple steps. Wibu-Systems has the efficient tools for each
step ranging from graphical user interfaces for interactive
integration of the protection, through command line
automation tools, to programming interfaces.
This means you can fully adapt the software protection
and licensing process to your specific needs.
1. Define your product features: Which software
modules do you want to individually market?
2. Protect your software: Use AxProtector and fully
encrypt your software without changing the source
code. IxProtector protects individual modules and
hence adds an extra layer of protection.
3. Generate your licenses: Define and create your
license models in a straightforward and flexible manner
using CodeMeter License Central. What do you want
to sell? Single-user or network licenses, subscription
or perpetual license models, leasing or pay-per-use? Or
do you just want to distribute demo versions?
4. Ship your products: With CodeMeter you have a
wide range of delivery options. You can choose between
a hardware-based (CmDongle) and a computer-specific
(CmActLicense) license container, which is either pre-
programmed or delivered as activation code.
