EasyLicenser 2.0 Released: Tougher Security, Faster Integration, Support For Orion Network License Server

Fremont, California, November 20th 2003. Agilis Software today released the 2.0 version of their popular EasyLicense Software License Manager. EasyLicenser 2.0 increases security, speeds integration, broadens tools for ecommerce, and introduces support for Agilis's Orion Internet License Server.

EasyLicenser's new public key-encrypted digital signature and password mechanism protects against spoofing of the runtime libraries. If a programming-savvy hacker attempts to replace the libraries, or to modify them in any way, the license test will fail. Public key cryptography is also combined with access-controlled passwords to protect against hackers who try to clone keys, or to use them across products. Users who try to extend a time-limited licenses by changing their system clock will be defeated by tougher protection in the Basic APIs.

Metered licensing, where an ISV sells a fixed number of operations to a user, is increasingly popular, especially for new software-as-a-service delivery mechanisms such as web services. EasyLicenser 2.0 broadens support for this licensing model by automatically and securely tracking metered usage units or usage count, so accelerating the development process for ISVs using metering.

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