Meeting in the digital

Connectivity is key and even more
relevant and urgent than ever, as
the temporary lockdown enforced by several
countries has shown. Our live and interactive
masterclasses offer unique content that will help
migrate your business from a static paradigm to

CodeMeter
Embedded 2.40
Beginning with release 2.40,
CodeMeter Embedded offers two
alternative options for transferring licenses offline:
You can either make use of an update file and
assign licenses via CodeMeter License Central to
the embedded devices already recorded during
production, or place the licenses in a CmDongle
and transfer them to the embedded device of
your choice via a local connection to the laptop
the USB device is plugged into.

License Central 3.3x
Last December’s release of
CodeMeter License Central 3.31
supports the new TMR server (Triple Mode
Redundancy), our concept for installing a
high-availability server at your user‘s site
that complies with the two-out-of-three
principle. You need ver. 3.31 only if you use
the TMR server. A ver. 3.30 update is planned
for April. This is the release for general use
without a TMR server.

CmStick – A dongle
for every need
The complete range of
CmDongles now consists of no
fewer than 18 form factors. Choices include
different sizes of the device, casing materials,
connecting interface types (USB, SD, microSD,
CFast, SPI), USB connector mounting types
(SiP or standard), USB protocols (2.0 or 3.1),
nand flash memory classes (MLC or pSLC),
and temperature ranges in the operating
environment, as well as the choice to make
the units removable or permanently fixed. All
CmSticks with flash memory also come with
disk encryption, a private partition, and key
storage in the CC EAL5+ certified security
controller, which also allows the secure dele-
tion of flash disk contents.
DigiFab4KMU – Paving
the way for smart
factories

a meaningful integration of all construction
phases and the underlying data in a single
system by developing an innovative Integrated
Virtualization System that will consolidate
and make available all relevant data and
information for the entire project’s lifecycle, for
all functions and trades, and for all relevant
systems already in place.

Silver Linings:
Licensing in the Cloud
Cloud computing” has become
ubiquitous, but what are the
issues when it is applied to cloud-based
licensing? Security is always a question mark
when it comes to cloud services. This white
paper describes secure cloud-based license
management with CodeMeter Cloud and
License Central and the use of certificate
chains to establish trust in the cloud licensing
and storage environment and to protect the
integrity of the service.
Even though the situation trig-
gered by the Corona virus pan-
demic is evolving rapidly and making it diffi-
cult to plan for the long term, Wibu-Systems
is taking the necessary measures to protect
its staff, customers, partners, and suppliers,
while continuing to deliver CodeMeter and
WibuKey dongles as scheduled, operate its
cloud and hosting services, provide profes-
sional consulting, sales, and marketing services,
and focus on the next generation of techno-
logical innovations.
Secure and easy home
office setups
Coming to the aid of software
publishers during the Corona-
virus crisis, Wibu-Systems is making available
its brand-new cloud-based license containers
for free throughout Q2/2020, so you can offer
software licenses to home office workers from
the comfort of a secure cloud environment.
This new technology combines the typical
robustness of hardware-based protection with
greater ease of use and scalability.
