USB-Privacy: Security To Software Using USB
Keywords:
USB (Universal Serial Bus), Machine Specific, Dongle, Piracy, VendorAbstract
The general way of providing a security to any software or application, is, a key verification. If we share this key and try to use the software on different machines. . We can create the copies of the software. This is basically known as a `piracy`. To prevent such a illegal activities, there are many security applications present in the market nowadays. But piracy prevention can be achieved by simply making it machine specific. The software is provided with USB-drive which is when connected check for the valid machine and allow using the software only on the valid machine. This paper will explain the concept in detail.
