Integrating Anti-Piracy in Your Software

Good software protection needs to be easy to integrate with your application. Even the best encryption algorithm can’t provide protection if the dongle is simply a challenge/response device. Fortunately AxProtector from Wibu-Systems can offer you maximum protection with virtually no work on your part.

AxProtector - Integration Without Programming Skills

AxProtector is a sophisticated integration tool that can automatically protect your application without the need to modify or recompile source code.

Just three simple steps will have your application protected simply and easily:

  1. Build the executable you want to protect and select it with AxProtector
  2. Specify your license code, consisting of the Firm Code (assigned by Wibu-Systems) and the Product Code (assigned by you).
  3. Click OK. Your executable is now protected through strong AES 128-bit encryption that only a CodeMeter dongle or CodeMeterAct can decrypt.

No need for complex and time-consuming API calls and recompilation. With just a few mouse clicks in AxProtector, you can create versions using different business models like pay-per-use, network license control and expiration dates.

AxProtector provides you with maximum strength protection, without the need to change your executable. And your application will never be completely decrypted at any one time, preventing simple memory sniffers from creating a crack. You can even turn on debugger detection and lock the application if a debugger is detected.

Maximum Flexibility

Build it once: sell it multiple ways. With AxProtector, you can enable trial versions, network versions, pay per use, pay per feature, subscription periods, and more. A different version of your product for a different market need is no further away than selecting a different option when you run AxProtector. With a single executable, you have almost unlimited access to different versions and different payment models.

AxProtector can be used for:

  • Windows 32 bit executables and DLL files
  • Windows 64 bit executables and DLL files
  • Mac Os X executables
  • Java executables
  • .NET 1.1 and 2.0 executables and DLL files

Configurable Error Messages

You can quickly and easily customize any error messages that are displayed when a license variance is encountered. For example, how about a “Buy Now” message when no license is found?

You can specify what should happen if an error occurs (“No Licenses Remaining”) or if a warning is to be displayed (“You have 3 days left”).

Unified Interface for CodeMeter and WibuKey

AxProtector not only provides on-demand encryption for executable code, it is also a unified, easy to use interface for both our technologies, WibuKey and CodeMeter.

You define a license, for either WibuKey or CodeMeter and all the rest is done by AxProtector. You can then decide whether you will deliver a WibuBox or a CodeMeter Stick to your customer.

Customers who have chosen WibuKey years ago, now can use CodeMeter without replacing existing WibuBoxes.
