Product features

01 Easily build license management into apps

Encrypts apps and prevents decryption without a USB dongle, so you can effortlessly manage licenses without changing the source code.

The built-in real-time clock in the USB dongle enables you to set an expiry date, making it easy to create evaluation versions of apps and versions with an expiry date.

02 Protects apps

Minimizes the risk of static analysis attacks such as by disassemblers, by encrypting apps.

03 Protects files

Protects important data by encrypting files used for apps.
The encrypted files can be accessed via API.
