P R O D U C TCodeMeter at theTerminal Server?Are your customers using yoursoftware at a Microsoft TerminalServer? Are you concerned that sucha use can duplicate your licensesillegally?To avoid this situation you have two choices:(1) you can check in your software if a TerminalServer is running and if so, stop your softwareor (2) you can use the automatic handlingof CodeMeter. The same mechanism is alsoimplemented in WibuKey version 5.20 or later.Automatic Session HandlingIf your software runs on a Terminal Server, CodeMeterassumes each single session is runningon its own computer. If you use UserLimit orNoUserLimit as the access method, the behavioris as expected – the number of concurrent runsis limited to the number of “network” users or,with NoUserLimit, all copies are running.When using the StationShare access mode on aTerminal Server, one license is used per session,independent from the situation where applicationsare running on the same computer. Withthe Exclusive Mode, the customer can start thesoftware exactly once per session.All these features are easy to use: You just selectthe desired access mode in the AxProtector orIxProtector and set the minimal driver versionto 3.20.The behavior of WibuKey version 5.20 or higheris nearly identical, with the exception that onlyWkLAN supports the Terminal Server. The localaccess always permits unrestricted use bycompatibility. Please note this if you use theWibuKey API directly. Using AxProtector 6.10 orlater, the local access of WibuKey is no longerpermitted on a Terminal Server.Future DevelopmentBeyond the case “software on a Terminal Serverwith a limited number of users… like in anetwork” is also the case of “software on theTerminal Server but the CodeMeter Stick is onthe user’s local PC”. This is a very relevant orcommon practice. We will provide a programminginterface to realize this with the usualTerminal Servers (Microsoft, Citrix) later in 2007.If you are interested in a pre-release, please sendan email to our support (support@wibu.com).12
B I L L B O A R DBriefly PresentedAxProtector for .NETThe next AxProtector for .NET totally disassemblesyour software, protects it with CodeMeterand rebuilds it again. The former release hadprotected the file as a black box totally. Beyondthe increase of protection against cracking thenew method is also more universal in use.“Remoting” or “Reflection” can be used togetherwith the new AxProtector.The AxProtector for .NET can be used for Executablesas well as for DLLs. We support .NETversion 1.1 and 2.0. A .NET 1.1 version is automaticallyconverted into a 2.0 version.The AxProtector for .NET supports CodeMeter ona local PC and also on the network. All knownnetwork management implementations of CodeMeterare available. These are StationShare,UserLimit, Exclusive, NoUserLimit, server searchlist and access limits of the CodeMeter networkserver itself.AxProtector for .NET also supports the configurablerun-time check, which permits thedetection of the removal of a CodeMeter Stickduring the software use.Protected assemblies can be strongly named byAxProtector for .NET, so they can be used in theGlobal Assembly Cache of .NET.Security AnalysisWith the 4th Hacker’s Contest, we want to publiclyshow that cracking a live program with a“dongle” will be very difficult. You already havea protected software application? Our securityanalysis can show you how secure your currentimplementation is. Just contact us; we will alsohelp you enhance your current protection andlicensing strategy.CodeMeter under the SunCodeMeter in thenewest version 3.20is also available forSun Solaris 10 onSPARC processors.We support almost the complete functionalityof CodeMeter on this platform.The only limitations are the end user tools likeCodeMeter Password Manager. But who is usinga Sun Workstation in a private home?CodeMeter architecture showed its high flexibilityduring migration to Sun Solaris. The Web-Admin, which is already available on Windows,Mac OS, and Linux, is also fully available onSun Solaris.You can alternatively use a Linux PC with a SunWorkstation as a centralized license server. Youcan also protect your local software products forSun Solaris against software piracy. We supply ashared object which can be used to integrate theCodeMeter API into your source code.The runtime library for applications, which areprotected by AxProtector for Java, is availablefor Sun Solaris 10. Encrypted Java applicationsrun immediately on Sun Workstations – as longa suitable CodeMeter Stick is available.Mittelstandsprogramm 2007(Small Business in Germany)Also, this year WIBU-SYSTEMS will be providing,as a premium sponsor, more valuable awards.They permit SMEs to have secure protection andadditional sales channelsfor digital productswith a risk-free deploymentof the CodeMeterDRM technology.VitaBIT: Consortium awarded byBundeswirtschaftsministeriumOn November 22, 2006, Dr. Walter Otremba,the state secretary of BMWi, presented an awardto Oliver Winzenried, CEO of WIBU-SYSTEMSAG, for the project “VitaBIT“. Together withthe consortium partner CAS Software AG,Forschungszentrum Informatik (FZI), PTV AG andthe Sozial and Diakoniestation Weinstadt. Weearned the award during the “SimoBIT” technologycompetition. The focus on this competition isabout secure application of mobile informationtechnology in business and government.CodeMeter Password ManagerThe CodeMeter Password Manager is enhancedwith some unique features. Automatic learningand filling of passwords is available for FireFoxon Windows, Mac OS X and Linux, on InternetExplorer for Windows and on Safari for Mac OS.A new look and feel with different “themes” andan enhanced intuitive usage complete the newrelease. The CodeMeter Password Manager canbe used in a mobile and secure way directly fromthe CodeMeter Stick without software installationon the “borrowed” PC (like at a friend’shouse or wireless hotspot). For evaluationpurposes without CodeMeter Stick there is afile-based demo version for Windows available(but having less security than the CodeMeterStick version).13
