Diamond Lock is a revolutionary software
product which allows developers to protect their code from hackers, software
piracy, and knock offs. All too often, we hear of software which has been placed
on the Internet and illegally distributed to thousands of users or TradeStation
systems which have been modified slightly from the original and then resold
as a new knock off system. This type of illegal activity cost developers an
estimated $13.2 billion dollars of lost revenue. Nearly 1 out of every 2 copies
of software is illegally installed. With Diamond Lock, you
no longer have to be one of these developers loosing countless $$$ to software
theft every day.
Many programs offer built-in protection against hackers by Protecting code.
TradeStation, for example, allows the developer of Easy Language (EL) code to Protect
their EL code from prying eyes by using a basic password protection scheme. Unfortunately,
software is readily available to illegally un-protect and unlock this built-in Protection.
Thus, even though the developer Protects their EL code, a hacker can easily
un-protect the EL code. Once the EL code is un-protected, the hacker can rip you off and
easily undo any block number checks and expiration checks you may have built into the
code. The fact is the hacker can now easily modify your code ever so slightly and resell
it as their own.
Diamond Lock offers superior protection by using leading edge encryption
and computer finger printing techniques. First, Diamond Lock will finger
print the users computer and assign a unique identification code which identifies
this users particular computer. This identification code can not be altered by the user
any more than your own finger print can be altered. Second, the developer issues the user
a password unique to the users id code. This password has an expiration date encoded and
will enable the developers software for a specified period of time. Upon expiration,
the developers code will be rendered useless on the users computer.
For developers only. Demo
