CmActLicenses are the alternative for protecting and licensing software without any hardware component. The CmActLicense technology is based on a signed and encrypted license file. ISVs can decide whether and how these licenses are bound to the devices of their users. The unique encryption of the license file itself also allows symmetric and asymmetric keys to be stored safely and confidentially on the users’ devices.
CmActLicenses enable ISVs to encrypt and decrypt data symmetrically or asymmetrically, to sign data, and to verify signatures. AES 128-Bit, ECC 224-Bit, RSA 1024-Bit, and RSA 2048-Bit are available as the standard procedures for symmetric and asymmetric encryption.
