Celebrating an anniversary hat trick for Wibu-Systems 12
When we embarked on the Wibu-Systems journey in 1989 , we could sense the burgeoning wave of software innovation on the horizon , yet the full scope of the digital transformation that would permeate every facet of our lives was beyond our imagination . With the dawn of Industry 4.0 , we seized the opportunity to broaden our portfolio , and today , we are zealously developing security solutions for emerging technologies poised to reshape our world even more profoundly and swiftly than the impacts witnessed during the Fourth Industrial Revolution .
It ’ s with a deep sense of pride that I reflect on Wibu-Systems ’ 35th anniversary . Above all , I cherish our enduring , partnership-driven customer relationships and our ability to deliver significant economic and practical benefits through our innovations . Our operations are driven by a commitment to sustainability , fairness , and the highest ethical standards in business practices . During our INNO DAYS on June 26th – an event you ’ re warmly invited to – we ’ ll recount the past 35 years through customer stories , motivational keynotes , and a thoughtprovoking roundtable .
WibuKey , our original product from 1989 , remains in use today , and CodeMeter , our premier technology , celebrated its 20th anniversary last year . Our commitment to incremental improvements and groundbreaking technological advancements is unwavering . These advancements , including preparations for post-quantum cryptography , cloud deployment , and artificial intelligence methodologies , are designed to simplify your engagement with our solutions . Prepare to be amazed by CmCloud , offering georedundancy with Amazon AWS , high availability of our CodeMeter License Central hosting solutions running in parallel in separate data centers , the protection of NVIDIA GPU code , and our ambitious plans for the next five years .
This edition of our KEYnote magazine offers a treasure trove of insights into our enhanced hosting services for CodeMeter License Central , strategies for managing licensing emergencies , integrating License Central into your ERP system , and our collaboration with Hilscher on the Flagship Store for the OI4 Community , among other topics . I hope these pages spark a wealth of ideas for you .
Looking forward , we aspire to remain your trusted partner in software protection , licensing , and security over the next 35 years . Let ’ s initiate a dialogue . Wishing you all the best for 2024 , I eagerly anticipate our personal interactions at upcoming trade fairs and events , or within your or our offices .
Yours , Oliver Winzenried CEO and Founder
