Economic downturn may lead to more software piracy

Economic downturn may lead to more software piracy

It seemed that the recession caused by this economic downturn is not beyond our expectation at all, on the contrary, we have an uprising of applications of evaluation kit from the beginning of year 2009.

The customers felt the recession would ultimately result in greater instances of software piracy. Some of them said they felt software piracy would definitely increase.

The economic downturn may lead to the increased use of illegal software, says the Federation Against Software Theft (Fast), who found that 79% felt businesses would be more likely to try and save costs by not being appropriately licensed, although it's not clear whether they were admitting their own temptation.

The most effective, and legal, way of reducing software costs is to introduce a software right management system. .The only way to stop software piracy before it happens is to implement a strong software system solution to protect your software from unauthorized use. Effective software protection and licensing solutions not only protect software from piracy, but decrease operational costs and allow for an increase in revenue through effective protection method and flexible licensing models.

UniKey Hardware Keys are a software rights management solution that protects software vendors from unauthorized use or distribution of their products


UniKey Hardware Keys are a software rights management solution that protects software vendors from unauthorized use or distribution of their products. UniKey hardware Keys help Software vendors combat the continually evolving threat of software piracy, which is more widespread and more sophisticated than ever before.

Secure Communications
UniKey Hardware Keys are the most secure HID hardware key available in the world. A unique encryption key is used for every communication session between the application and the hardware hardware key, making brute force attacks virtually impossible. UniKey hardware keys include internal authentication, which effectively prevents cloning of the keys.

Quickly Add Protection - UniKey Shell
With the UniKey Shell, you can enhance overall security by adding multiple layers to thwart hacking attempts, preventing memory dumping and protecting against debuggers. The UniKey Shell enables you to embed licensing and protect your application in minutes, even if don't have access to source code. The UniKey Shell offers a way to quickly add protection and obfuscation to your application without requiring any alteration to the source code.

Speed Implementation - UniKey APIs
The best implementation of any protection scheme should include complete integration into your application through APIs. By using UniKey APIs, you can obtain the highest level of security and control over sophisticated license designs without spending time on lower level programming. UniKey APIs are pre-configured, higher level APIs for popular license models such as subscription, evaluation and pay-per-use. The UniKey API lets you customize your protection and insert calls to your protection keys throughout your application source code.

Real Time Clock (RTC) Hardware Key – UniKey Time
The on-board clock allows you to reliably and securely offer time-based license models such as trial, demo or subscription. A clock is stored inside the hardware key, offering a non-repudiated time source and the highest level of protection against time tampering.

With UniKey Time Keys , you can meet your customers' needs for flexible time-based licensing while protecting your revenue streams. UniKey Time hardware Key also allows end users to place timestamps (hours, minutes, seconds) and date (day, month, year) on the output of an application for definitive time recording purposes.

License Across Networks
The network version of UniKey Hardware Keys protects client-server applications and provides server monitoring to track and manage license usage on the network.

Protect Multiple Applications
UniKey Hardware Keys allow you to protect multiple applications with a single hardware key. You can also add protection for additional applications at a later date without altering the existing security structure.

NSW government wants Linux IP, patent protection

Original news could be found at the following site:

http://www.zdnet.com.au/news/software/soa/NSW-government-wants-Linux-IP-patent-protection/0,130061733,139161055,00.htm



The NSW government is asking Linux companies seeking appointment to a panel of suppliers to its agencies to address their ability to protect customers from "anti-Linux" litigation.

Included in a NSW government list of selection criteria tenderers should address if they want to be appointed to the panel is a tenderer's "capacity to protect a customer from anti-Linux litigation, particularly any alleged claims of patent or intellectual property infringement".

Inclusion of the criteria comes as SCO's legal assault on Linux grinds on and concern within the open source movement grows over the possibility of an assault by proprietary software rivals using the patent system.

The government said in a request for tender issued this morning it plans to form a panel for a minimum of two years from December of about 10 suppliers to provide Linux software and services to its agencies.

The state Department of Commerce said in the long-awaited request for tender -- which closes on 28 October -- the panel would operate from 15 December this year to 14 December 2006. There will be an option to extend for another two one-year terms.

The release of the tender comes as the state government drafts an open source policy designed "to facilitate the widening of software alternatives available to government".

The panel is designed to give agencies a better opportunity to access Linux software and associated services at server and desktop environments, "in accordance with the NSW government's ongoing open source initiative". While the panel is available to eligible buyers, there is no guarantee of work. However, previous statements have indicated there may be more than AU$40 million worth of contracts on the table over the life of the panel.

There is no restriction on the distribution of Linux employed when offering to undertake work. Officials said the department did "not intend to restrict the number of different distributions that may be available from the panel".

The state government said the tender would encompass Linux distributions, Linux infrastructure software, Linux systems support services, Linux systems integration services and product-specific training services. It would not include Linux-compliant hardware, Linux custom applications, Linux custom application support services, Linux custom application development and managed services for Linux installations.

While tenderers would be required to offer both Linux systems support services and product-specific training services, preference would be given to tenderers who could offer all or most of the deliverables, have strategic relationships with existing suppliers on other panels -- particularly major hardware vendors -- and "can act as expert prime contractors in facilitating the delivery of cost-effective Linux solutions".
The state government said a tender briefing would be held on Wednesday 13 October at the McKell Building, 2-24 Rawson Place, Sydney 2000.
The government said in the tender it has considered a number of factors in selecting the Linux panel contract model, including:

the NSW government is encouraging agencies to consider open source alternatives when purchasing software to maximise efficiencies;

Linux is the most prevalent open source operating system worldwide and has increasing support from software, services and hardware suppliers;

most independent tests by respected authorities tend to demonstrate that Linux is not inferior to proprietary alternatives and;

a focus on Linux offers the best potential for measuring agency take-up rates, monitoring savings and identifying aggregation opportunities.
Selection criteria for the request for tender that do not relate to price will account for 60 percent of the total evaluation score, the government said. Those that do relate to price will account for the remaining 40 percent.

Aside from the intellectual property and patent criteria, tenders will be evaluated on: fitness for purpose at an enterprise level, including; application of industry-recognised methodologies for the certification of Linux software and hardware, capacity to protect a customer from anti-Linux litigation, "particularly any alleged claims of patent or intellectual property infringement" and possession of appropriate quality assurance certifications".

The state government will also examine tenderers' strategy for ensuring the best contract price at all times.

Tenderers should also demonstrate capacity to perform this standing offer agreement, including: business experience in the delivery of Linux software and services; human resource capability; help desk access and Internet support facilities; financial viability and suitability of proposed insurances; ability to market this standing offer agreement, current commitments, range of deliverables offered.

Tenderers should also look to secure general compliance with NSW government procurement policy and other applicable NSW government policies.

UniKey API protection scheme ensures the highest security for software vendors.


UniKey API protection scheme ensures the highest security for software vendors.

A question that regularly was come up is whether software could be one hundred percent secured by a dongle, or thought some dongles have been seriously cracked, why most expensive software still use dongle as their software protection solution? The truth is, most developers used the easiest way-enveloper to encrypt the application, which is the least method to use a dongle to protect software. Actually UniKey API protection scheme is the right way to ensure the highest security for software vendors.

UniKey dongles are available in standalone, network and real time. Using a software developer’s kit, software developers can protect applications with the right hardware key by calling for the dongle’s presentation.

UniKey provides two methods of protection schemes, envelope and API. UniKey Enveloper is automatically wrap up a program with only a click by a mouse, it is the fast way to protect executable files without needing for the source and additional coding work,

To ensure the highest security, the API implementation is strongly recommended by SecuTech’s experience technology expert, Raymond Chaw, ‘we have been helping customers to integrate UniKey and their software successfully with API application, I hope that our work can help software vendors gain more on revenue and reputation’, said Raymond.

An API, or Application Programming Interface, is a set of routines that an application uses to work with the operating system, allows data and messages to be encoded or encrypted so they can be stored and transmitted securely. With the help of UniKey API, software developers can easily achieve strong software protection and produce complicated software protection schemes via various combinations of the UniKey APIs.

We provide abundant APIs to operate the UniKey dongle. All the APIs are implemented in a DLL/LIB file. In the SDK, software developers can find samples in various programming languages.

UniKey API is easy, secure and portable. If a DLL is required for development language, the appropriate DLL(s) can be copied to the same directory as the sample source code.

-- Business Development Director, Lithuania


Wir benutzen den Unikey Dongle seit einigen Jahren für unser professionelles Audio-Meßsystem "WinAudioMLS".
Es handelt sich hierbei um ein größeres C/C++ Projekt zur Echtzeit Signalanalyse unter Windows. Die Integration des Dongles stellte kein Problem dar. Die Unterstützung durch das Unikey Team war hervorragend. Durch den attraktiven Preis können wir das System auch in preissensitiven Bereichen einsetzten.


-- Dr. Frank, Germany


I used a parallel port dongles for last few years. But was having various issues with it. On top of that, nowadays hardware comes without serial and/or parallel ports. It forced me to look for an USB dongle and I came across SecuTech. I requested demo kit from SecuTech. Since then till date, I am extremenly happy with their product and support. UniKey USB dongle has very high memory capacity. It's driverless. I earlier used to keep end user, license and service contract specific information in encrypted binary file. Now all such information is moved to dongle. API to access dongle is very intutive and easy to use. So far, I have not noticed any issue with the API as well as the dongle. Another advantage of this dongle is, one dongle can be used to copy protect multiple softwares modules.

Secutech kilidi çok kullanışlı ve çok uygun fiyata. Ayrica destek çok hızlı ve tam. Teşekkürler.

Dongle Driver Problems


Dongle Driver Problems


Developers are sick of reading and answering the same questions every day in emails or on forums. Normally they was getting over 10 emails a day asking the same questions that were covered in the forums.

Almost all software vendors that are using dongles have to create a page on website about troubling shooting of dongle problems, actually 90% or the dongle problems are caused by dongle driver.

Customers are just tired of seeing the same thing over and over...

Returned Dongle errors

 Dongle not found
 Can't Find the Dongle
 Dongle driver is not installed
 Dongle driver error
 Cannot open dongle driver
 USB device driver not installed
 LICENSE KEY ERROR

The problems caused by dongle
 When you attach the USB dongle, if the light inside the dongle goes on and then turnes off immediately In that case, you have to download the latest dongle drivers from the related website. As the dongle driver is old and not compatible with the current window version. Installing the latest dongle driver has already resolved USB dongle problems on both Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
 If the dongle driver did not install correctly during the system installation, you need to update or re-install the dongle driver Version:
The below message is given whenever the applications simply cannot find a dongle - whether it be a standalone or network device. Generally when this message occurs, users need to check a number of things:

• Check if the users have installed the drivers correctly.
• Try installing the drivers manually
 The inconsistence of the dongle driver version and the software version may cause problem as well.
 The conflict between the dongle and certain recent versions of the McAfee and AVG virus scanners also occurs dongle driver problem.
 Occasionally, USB dongles are not being recognized in Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
 In rare cases, software fails to install the driver and new users need to run the dongle driver again.
 USB dongle devices are detected when they are first plugged in, but sometimes Windows will mark a device as bad if it cannot find the right drivers for it.
 Installation seems to hang while installing dongle drivers under certain circumstances - though it hasn't actually hung - it just takes several minutes to complete. Tt's unfortunately the drivers cause the delay and but not the software.
 Software vendors normally recommend to install the driver before connecting USB keys. If, however, uses have connected the USB key first, they may encounter problems with the dongle driver installation.
 An incorrectly installed dongle driver can produce license error messages. The dongle driver is a piece of software that communicates between IDL/ENVI and the hardware key attached to USB port. If an IDL-based product produces a dongle licensing error message, the dongle driver may need to be re-installed or updated."


How to solve the dongle driver caused problems – Driverless dongle

Driverless means you do not have to install a driver. The operation system will install the driver automatically. And there is not any driver installation problem at all. Software users really enjoy the convenience brought by the driverless technology.

Benefits for software suppliers,
 Save 90% of technical support team’s energy and time.
 Reduce lots of work for support team
 Do not have to upload the new driver to website for update
 Reduce the technical dependency of dongle providers.

Benefits for end users
 Do not have to download the new driver to update
 Avoid the problems of DONGLE NOT FOUND
 Easy to use, just plug in with driverless dongle, it works perfectly.

The basic idea is that only the workstation with the correct key can access the server’s content, on the other side, the workstation without a key or with a wrong key cannot retrieve the information from the server.

Compared with traditional username/password authentication, this two-factor authentication brings more security to the system, and provides more flexible web management.

The first step in the authentication process is the client to send a logon request to the server. Then the server sends a challenge to the client. The challenge in general is a random string. Client receives the challenge, and it should compose a response.

Now, the server gets the response and it can retrieve the corresponding info from the user database. Then the server does the same computation again, and compares the result from the client. If the result is the same, we can say the client is authorized, and vice versa.

Finally, the server sends the result to the client. If the client is authorized it can logon the server.
