Details Ease of Use
The Sentinel SuperPro Toolkit provides a unified and intuitive
interface for designing your protection strategies and
programming the hardware keys. With a single programming
environment, you have the power to implement multiple
proprietary algorithms in conjunction with the read/write
memory in the Sentinel SuperPro hardware key which gives
you the ability to securely and flexibly protect and license
your applications. Additionally you can visually manage
the on-key memory for your license management designs.
Highly Customizable
Because of its unique model of security and memory
usage, Sentinel SuperPro is the product of choice among
software developers who want the highest level of security
and flexibility. Sentinel SuperPro hardware keys are the
only hardware tokens to offer such a granular level of
control. Integrating Sentinel SuperPro
with your Application
You can integrate Sentinel SuperPro hardware
keys with your application in two ways:
| + |
Sentinel SuperPro provides a
Shell program to protect your executables automatically.
This method is the fastest way to protect your application
and ideal if source code is no longer available.
|
| + |
For more customized software
protection and license management implementations
use the Sentinel SuperPro API's within your source
code. Sentinel SuperPro API's allow you to tailor
when and how your application communicates with
the key. In addition, you have the flexibility to
use the read/write memory for your customized license
models. For instance, you may decide to license
your application based on the feature or functionality
that your clients paid for. Using the Sentinel SuperPro
hardware key to secure your application, you could
embed pre-defined codes for usage models within
the key. Alternatively, you may decide to offer
a version of your application in a leased or rental
model. Using Sentinel SuperPro's algorithms and
API's you can set time limits, allow a set amount
of executions, or enable additional activations
remotely upon payment from the customer. |
| + |
To obtain the highest level
of security for your application, we highly suggest
that software protection and licensing be an integral
part of your software development life cycle process.

Remotely Updating Users
Sentinel SuperPro's Field Activation capability
ensures that you can easily update the hardware key
remotely. For instance, you can remotely enable access
to new versions, additional licenses, and additional
features without removing the Sentinel SuperPro hardware
key from your end-users' system.
Support for Networked Applications
Sentinel SuperProNet provides software protection
for client-server applications and provides server monitoring
to track license usage on the network. Sentinel SuperProNet
for Windows supports TCP/IP, IPX, and NetBEUI. Sentinel
SuperProNet for Linux supports TCP/IP.
