The Paris-based company develops and markets software systems for tracking manufacturing processes. PSM (Production System Management) provides an exact view of machine and factory activity and directly collects information to assist managers in increasing factory production. Previously, Jetcam France used a combination of software protection tokens from Aladdin and SafeNet. For the latest release of their applications, they evaluated new solutions and chose SafeNet as their sole provider. "The Sentinel Hardware Keys have a quick approach to implementation and the flexible interface makes them particularly easy to use," said Phillipe Dehelly, Owner of Jetcam France. "I was particularly pleased with the encrypted communications between the token and the application. The use of both public key cryptography An encryption method that uses a two-part key: a public key and a private key. To send an encrypted message to someone, you use the recipient's public key, which can be sent to you via regular e-mail or made available on any public Web site or venue. and 128-bit AES encryption creates a high level of security. Throughout our six-year history working with SafeNet, they have consistently provided superior customer and technical support." Jetcam France implemented the latest SafeNet software protection technology for their machinery management software because of its security and support as well as superior features. Two features that distinguished the Sentinel Hardware Keys were: the Real Time Clock (RTC See real time clock. ), which provides the highest level of protection against time tampering; and Sentinel Business Layer APIs, which typically reduce the programming time required to secure new applications by up to 60% or more. "With Sentinel Hardware Keys, providers of advanced software, such as Jetcam France, can protect their applications from unauthorized use, preventing revenue loss," said Ken Chow, general manager, SafeNet's Software Protection Business Unit.

sarah_shi (Member): Real Time dongle vs Time dongle ( The basic guide to choose a real time hardware key for software copy protection) 9/13/2009 11:19 PM
Software Protection Dongle<br>A hardware device that serves as copy protection for certain software by rendering the software inoperable when the device is not plugged into a proper port.<br>Vendors of software-protection dongles (and dongle-controlled software) often use terms such as hardware key, hardware token, or security device instead of dongle, but the term "dongle" is much more common in day-to-day use.<br><br>Real Time Dongle - A definition from Wikipedia:<br>The Real time dongle contains an internal real time clock, independent from the Operating system clock, and designed for software vendors who need to control and manage rental and sale usage and/or maintenance. This allows pay per use by charging the end users timely and periodically for actual periods of use. This function is based on a real time clock in the dongle which records the specific time (hour, minute, second) and date (day, month, year). <br>If there isn't battery inside dongle, the dongle is not real time dongle. There are only 2 real time dongles, the one is HASP Time, and the other is UniKey Time.<br><br>Why should we choose the real-time clock version hardware key?<br>The Time model is a real time hardware key that contains a real-time clock. With the real Time key, your application is not only secured with a hardware key but its activation is also limited to a specific time and date. This is an ideal solution for renting software or selling it in a subscription or maintenance-based model.<br><br>What happens when the battery dies in a Real Time hardware dongle?<br>When not connected to a computer, the hardware key Time battery has a lifetime of few years. However, battery life can be increased to at least ten years if the key remains connected to an operating computer. <br>When the battery eventually dies, the Time hardware key can be used as a standard hardware key, i.e. it no longer supports time-limited licenses, but continues to provide activation-limited licenses.<br><br>Software Protection with a Real-Time Clock<br>The Real Time version hardware key permits the leasing and renting of software, which expires after a specific date. It lets you charge the clients periodically for software use and maintenance. This functionality is based on an internal real-time clock, indicating the exact time (hours, minutes and seconds) and date (day, month, year). Each Time hardware key internal clock battery is guaranteed to last three or four years in the field, eliminating costly or frequent hardware replacements for your customers.<br><br>Real Time hardware key USB dongle benefits:<br>An ideal solution for strong copy protection, IP protection, and feature-based time-based subscription or rental licensing.<br>- Unmatched Protection Against Software Piracy<br>- Strong copy protection guarantees publishers get paid for every software copy: On-chip 128-bit AES encryption ensures a robust link between the application and the hardware key.<br>- Powerful protection against hacker attacks: A secure communication channel between the key and the application offers powerful resistance to middle layer attacks.<br>- Real-time on-key clock prevents tampering with time settings. <br>- Time-Based: Use the real time hardware key to enable subscription or rental of software for a specific time period.<br>- A secure, non PC-dependent external storage device: Store licenses, passwords, strings, and application dependent data in either protected read/write memory or ROM.<br>- Easily identify authorized application users: Real Time hardware key features a unique ID number for every key.<br><br>Fake time version dongle<br>Fake products are found worldwide and they are usually poor quality sold at a fraction of the original price. Some of dongle suppliers to name their products similarly after popular brand names to trick consumers into buying them. <br>No battery in side, no real time function!<br><br>Know more about Real Time dongles<br>www.aladdin.com<br>www.eSecuTech.com<br><br><br> |
