Arxan CEO to Discuss Software Piracy And Protection During Keynote At SoftSummit 2007 Conference
Arxan CEO Mike Dager to provide software protection strategies and solutions to prevent hackers from stealing IP, and undercutting sales and revenue.
Bethesda, Md. (PRWEB) November 6, 2007 -- Arxan Technologies, a leading provider of application hardening solutions designed to protect software IP from piracy and tampering, today announces that Mike Dager, Chief Executive Officer of Arxan, will deliver a keynote presentation at the SoftSummit 2007 Conference, taking place in Santa Clara, Calif., November 12-14, 2007. SoftSummit brings industry experts, vendors and corporations together to discuss the latest trends in software purchasing, pricing, licensing and enterprise application management.
Corporate revenues are at risk as evidenced by the fact that roughly $40 billion of software was globally pirated in 2006. In today's sophisticated attack landscape, software piracy is a growing problem - according to IDC, businesses will lose $200 billion to software piracy over the next four years. Today's hackers are employing insidious attack techniques from the binary level up. One look at rampant piracy Web sites with their thousands of cracked software products clearly suggests that combating software hackers requires broader and deeper fortification of software applications than is typically done today.
In his keynote presentation, "Software Piracy: How to Protect Your Software Assets," Dager will address software IP protection and security, and provide attendees with:
| | - An overview of popular hacking tools and techniques that threaten IP piracy;
- Insight into the required protections and new lines of defense available to harden applications against threats; and,
- The seven key strategies for implementing secure and seamless anti-piracy solutions to thwart hackers' relentless attacks on IP, and ultimately secure revenue streams.

"The software industry has been living with piracy and reverse engineering for years, as it's been long perceived that hackers will always remain one step ahead," said Dager. "But now there is no excuse to continue letting counterfeit software sales damage potential revenues or worse, damage brands. As such, Arxan is dedicated to educating the software market about fortifying their valuable applications with IP protection, because hackers and software piracy can be stopped."
Arxan's GuardIT technology enables companies to protect software-rich IP against piracy and tampering to preserve revenue and brand erosion with a durable and customized application hardening solution. It can be deployed in a short period of time via a binary-based solution that is not intrusive and supports existing release schedules within an organization's Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Now armed with GuardIT's increased code protection, software providers can exercise even more granular control over specific and critical areas of the software, while remaining compatible with license management systems.
