USB LicenseKey Manager is the tool for
licensing the protected application that is implemented as USB License. The tool allows you to define licensing properties
(such as usage-based, time-based, and feature-based) and make the USB License Key (dongle) from normal USB flash drives
to license the protected application. In addition, USB LicenseKey
Manager also provides other functionalities, which include managing package
profiles for making the USB License Key, creating the Init Key utility for the
node-locked dongle , creating the Install Key utility for the connect-less
dongle, and creating the USB LicenseKey Maker tool for distributor.
NOTE: The USB flash drive must meet the technical standards required to make
the dongle, which can be found in products by well-branded, trusted companies
such as SanDisk, Kingston, Lexar, Transcend, etc. |
NOTE: It is recommended that you test the
dongle made from your specific USB flash drive brand/model prior to actual
deployment or making a large volume of dongles. To ensure that the dongle is
fully functional, the protected application must be able to detect the dongle
on another machine which is not used to make the dongle. |
NOTE: The USB License Key (dongle) supports
the protected application running on both Windows and macOS platforms. If
you want to offer your application in two different licensed versions for Windows
and macOS, you should assign each version a different Program
ID. |
NOTE: It is
recommended that you use the USB License Key (dongle) to license your macOS application in the No Limit mode only. Due to limitations in the macOS
system, the security of the Limit mode (which you can specify the limits such
execution, expiration period) may be compromised. |
