KeyCheck API and .NET Component

The KeyCheck API includes 32/64-bit DLLs, .NET Component, and Class Library that provide higher security, better seamless integration, and greater flexibily to support more app types (e.g. .NET WPF, MS Access/ Excel/Word Macro, Visual FoxPro).

Web App Protection

KeyCheck ActiveX

The provided ActiveX Automation Server allows you to protect web apps developed by ASP.NET or JavaScript. It supports both client- and server-side web apps for node-locked, USB dongle, and floating licenses. For server-side or cloud-based web apps, the solution also allows you to control the concurrent ASP.NET users/sessions.

Mobile App Protection

KeyCheck Mobile & .NET CF Component

The KeyCheck Mobile provides the solution for protecting and licensing Windows CE / Windows Mobile apps running on smart devices such as Pocket PCs, smartphones. It includes both DLL for native mobile apps using Visual C++ and .NET CF Component for managed apps.

Copy Protection for macOS

ElecKey MAX provides the KeyCheck SDK for Mac, which includes a set of libraries (e.g. C++, Objective-C, Java, Qt, Delphi) and tools that allow you to protect and license applications running on macOS platforms.

Node-Locked License

Node-locked license offers software-based copy protection that ties the application to a specific machine via hardware fingerprints (e.g. CPU, BIOS, HDD, Ethernet). So you can distribute your software securely online over the Internet.

Serial Key Licensing

The solution includes a license registration system that you can generate License Keys to license your software into different distributions such as shareware, evaluation, feature-based, subscription.

USB Dongle License

USB dongle license offers dongle-based copy protection that ties the application to a physical USB device. It also provides a more flexible node-locked license solution that allows the user to transfer the dongle license between machines easily.

Make Unlimited USB License Dongles

Make USB dongles for licensing your software as many as you want from normal flash drives. It's royalty free!

Make USB License Dongles Remotely Online

The solution allows the user to make (or update) the USB dongle remotely, while you still have full control over the license via License Key. With the Activation Server, this solution can be fully automated.

USB LicenseKey Maker for Third Party

The provided USB LicenseKey Maker allows you to authorize a third party (e.g. distributor, manufacturer) to make USB license dongles without compromising security. You can limit the number of dongles allowed to be made, as well as monitor the history log (from Activation Server) of all dongles that were made.

Floating Network License

Floating license offers network-based copy protection that ties the application to a specific license server accessible via the network. The solution includes NetKey License Server (NKLS), which functions to manage and allocate a pool of licenses to the application.

Floating Concurrent Licenses

Customizable License Server

The provided NetKey Manager .NET Component allows you to personalize your own license server that will be deployed to your client sites.

Roaming Network License

The NKLS with roaming support allows the user to check out a network license from the pool, disconnect from the network, and temporarily use the application off-site.

Advanced License Management

The included Activation Server provides an advanced, fully automated solution that allows you to manage licenses and gain full control in every stage of software distribution from activation, upgrade, transfer, to deactivation, as well as ecommerce integration.

Online License Activation

The Activation Server allows you to deploy an automated licensing service for your software. It also offers a simpler and easier way for the user to activate/transfer/upgrade the license instantly online through the Internet.

Web-Based and Offline Activation

In addition, the Activation Server provides alternatives for activation through the web, by phone, or email. The solution includes a customizable 'my account' web interface that allows the user to activate the license and check status easily online.

Automatic License Update / Validation

The feature enhances the software update functionality, allowing the application to update the license automatically online. For example, renewing subscription licenses. License validation allows you to destroy blacklisted licenses remotely.

Ecommerce integration

The Activation Server provides a variety of ways to integrate with ecommerce providers such as PayPal, Digital River. So you can fully automate the entire process of software sales and license management.

Advanced Software Update

Software Update Subscription

With the Update Server, it is simple and easy to provide software update subscription to your customers. The Update Server verifies the subscription automtically before allowing the application to access to the updates.

Online Installer

You can build and distribute your software as an Online Installer that has the ability to download the latest version setup package and install it automatically. So you don't need to distribute a new setup installer for every new version.

Update History Log

The Update Server keeps track of all software updates performed by the user. It allows you to monitor the status and activities of the updates provided to users, which can be helpful in scenarios (e.g. when providing technical support).

Local Update Server

The Update Server can be deployed as a local update server that allows the enterprise to download, cache, and manage the updates to the users locally. It also provides an enterprise solution for network licensed software.
