EasyLicenser License Manager 1.1 Released: Robust Copy Protection and Fast Integration for Java, C/C++ and VB ISVs

Agilis Software today announced the release of EasyLicenser version 1.1 (www.easylicenser.com), the native Java license manager that also protects C/C++ and VB6 products. EasyLicenser 1.1 provides tougher anti-piracy options, heightened security for the license management installation and faster integration with ISVs programs. EasyLicenser 1.1 is a free upgrade for all current users, and requires no modifications to existing installations.

EasyLicensers new security features include an 'anti-spoofing API, which employs a sophisticated combination of exception-based flow of control and a dynamic-handshake protocol to foil would-be hackers analyzing the call flow and parameter values in the binary code. The free evaluation download from Agilis Software includes sample code showing how dynamic API invocation can further increase protection for ISVs programs. EasyLicenser 1.1 also automatically protects against users attempts to defeat time-limited licenses by turning back the system clock. For the ISVs license management system itself, EasyLicenser 1.1 includes audit access control and additional user name security.

A popular defense against software piracy is to 'hard-lock the ISVs product to a specific machine. Popular techniques for hard-locking are now available as push-button options in EasyLicenser 1.1, while the extensibility mechanisms give sophisticated users a way to develop any protection scheme they wish. Additional data export formats and detailed application examples have been included based on feedback from existing users.

The EasyLicenser software carries no maintenance, upgrade or platform support costs, so EasyLicenser 1.1 is available free of charge via simple download for all existing users. No changes are required to their code unless they wish to employ the new security features, whose addition will take only a few minutes. Agilis Software continues to offer the popular EasyLicenser price structure, which means ISVs can protect their applications for as little as $2 per end-user copy, with no minimum order quantity.

Further details and a free trial version can be obtained from the EasyLicenser website: www.easylicenser.com, or by emailing Agilis at info@easylicenser.com.
