How does CrypKey protect a product on a network?
CrypKey uses the same protection methods on a network as on a stand-alone system, and also implements intelligent network license management that limits the number of users based on the license restrictions and releases locked licenses that may occur due to a client system crash. Back to Top 4. How do CrypKey copy protection tools identify the hard drive? CrypKey identifies the hard drive by accessing the unique serial number built into the firmware of the hard drive. The hard drive serial number (HDSN) is then incorporated into the license in order to “lock” the license to a specific hard drive. The hard drive serial number cannot be tampered with or modified by hackers, and provides a secure and reliable method of license locking. In cases where there is no HDSN CrypKey locks to the PC Serial Number from the Bios. This dual-layered locking mechanism ensures that your software is protected.
