SageKey Application Security is based on the concept of a Fingerprint, a unique number created for each PC. This fingerprint is created from the primary hard drive serial number, which is burned into the ROM (read only memory) of each hard drive by the manufacturer. No two hard drives have the same serial number.

An unlock code is then generated that is based upon the fingerprint. Consequently, each unlock code only works on the PC that it was generated for. The unlock code also contains a component to differentiate it from unlock codes for other applications, so that one unlock code does not unlock another application on the same PC. There are also nine digits of information contained within the unlock code that you, the vendor can control, allowing information to be passed to the application such as an expiry date or which features within the application to turn on.

The Web Component automatically issues Unlock codes when applications are validated. When a customer purchases your product, you register the customer with the Web Component, assigning a registration code to the customer, and define the number of PC's the user is allowed to run your application on. When the application is installed and first run, the user types in the registration code and in the background the web component is contacted and a request for an unlock code is made for the fingerprint of the PC. If the user has any keys left, an unlock code is issued and the PC is unlocked.

• Easy to use components - Our royalty free Security Package consists of an Application component, which is incorporated into your application as an OCX control and an Internet component which can be added to your IIS based web site. The Application component is placed in an initial form of your Access or VB application and verifies that the PC has been authorized to run the application. The application can be manually unlocked with the correct unlock code generated by you with the supplied key generator or automatically unlocked via the Internet. Full documentation, sample scripts and sample programs are provided with the Security Package.
• Powerful Internet Component. - Issue Unlock codes without added administration. Using the Internet Component, Unlock Keys can be issued to your user automatically with the click of a button. Add your customer to the Internet Component via a secure web page and assign the number of copies they have purchased. When the user needs to unlock a copy of your software, they click a button in your application and type in their internet unlock code to get authorization. Once the they have unlocked the number of copies they purchased, they are asked to contact you to buy more. Using the tool to batch generate internet unlock codes, the Internet Component can be used to unlock shrink wrapped software using one time unlock codes. The unlock codes can be put on the back of the CD case and will each unlock one copy of your software.
• Allow users to try before buying - Demo periods can be set with our Package. The Security control can be set to run for a number of days after first opened. The Security Component monitors the demo period and when it has expired, stops the application from launching and displays a dialog that allows the user to enter the Unlock Key. You may also extend the demo period by giving the user a Demo Period Extension Key. Unlock Keys and Demo Period Extension Keys can be generated by key generators shipped with the Security Package.
• Revoke active keys - Using the Web Component, it is possible to revoke a key that has been issued.  If a key has been revoked, when your secured application launches, the Web Component is queried by the ocx and if the key has been revoked the ocx will invalidate the security on that computer.  The user will be prompted to unlock if it is run on that computer ever again.  The revoked key will not allow the application to be unlocked.
• Selectively enable your software's features with Unlock Keys. - Different features of your application can be turned on using encrypted values in the unlock code. There are 9 digits of information that you can control and pass within the unlock code allowing you to either turn on different features of your product, load different files in the installation or allow a certain number of records to be added in your application. For example, if your product has some extended feature like an export feature that your customers pay a premium for, you can issue one Unlock Key to customers who have not paid for this feature and another for those who have.
• Time sensitive unlocking allows users to rent your software - With the Internet component, Unlock Keys can be time limited. This allows your software to be leased with weekly, monthly or yearly renewals
• Generate "One Time" Validation Codes for your CD's - Using the Web Component, a batch of randomly generated validation codes can be created which can be printed on labels and affixed to the back of shrink wrapped CD's. Each validation code can be set up to unlock one PC
