Introduction

A software protection dongle is a small piece of hardware that connects to a laptop, desktop or server computer. The term “dongle” was originally used to refer only to software-protection dongles; however, currently “dongle” is often used to refer to any small piece of hardware that plugs into a computer. This article is limited in scope to dongles used for the purpose of copy protection or authentication of software to be used on that system

How dongle protects an application?

Dongles have a total memory of 512 KB divided in many memory blocks given below in specification. Software application developers can record specific iformation and verify these information at run time from their application using procedure calls.

You can protect any application developed in VB, Visual studio, Clipper, Java or any other programming environment where you can call a external procedure. Our software developmet kit or starter kit has source code samples. Visit here for Free Software development Kit for Dongle

How a dongle given to me is different from a dongle given to your other customers

Dongles sold by us are all same. Software application developers first customises the dongle for their specific company / product with a unique non-readable non-changeable key. This key separates dongles provided by us to all our customers. You just need to remember a public key given by our system [available in Software Devepment Kit].

No, images, movies and pdf cannot be prevented from being copied. Copying is an operating system feature and cannot be blocked.
If you can add a password to your file and develop a viewer application which will automatically supply passowrd to run, than your files will run only with your application. You can protect the application with our dongle.
