dongle

What I'd like to ask is if anybody knows about an hardware USB-dongle for software protection which offers a very complete out-of-the-box API support for cross-platform Java deployments. Its SDK should provide a jar (only one, not one different library per OS & bitness) ready to be added to one's project as a library. The jar should contain all the native stuff for the various OSes and bitnesses From the application's point of view, one should continue to write (api calls) once and run everywhere, without having to care where the end-user will run the software The provided jar should itself

I have developed a software piece (with C and Python) which I want to protect with dongle so that copying and reverse engineering becomes hard enough. My dongle device comes with an api which provides these: Check dongle existence Check proper dongle Write into a memory location in dongle Read from a memory location in dongle etc. (I think the rests aren't that good..) What I can do in the source code so that it becomes harder to crack. Dongle provider suggested that, I should check proper dongle existence in a loop or after an event, or I should use the dongle memory in an efficient way. But

Suppose you want to add an extra layer of credentials on top of a SSL-encrypted login/password, but you don't want to increase complexity to the user. Is there a way to add the requirement of the possession of a dongle to web-server authentication schemes with existing cross-platform browser capabilities? In other words, to get access to the web-site, you would need a username, password, and a USB dongle that has been plugged into the client computer. The dongle would presumably do some sort of challenge/response. It'd be ideal if this dongle solution worked with Firefox automatically or with

Where can I buy a programmable USB dongle that supports C as a development language? Senselock rockey Aladdin We use Senselock in our application. It is a smart dongle, that you can download your custom code into it. The way it works is that instead of just checking the presence of a dongle, your code should expect a correct output from the dongle emitted from your code inside the dongle. One place to start is Hexwax. Try http://www.hexwax.com/Products/expandIO%2DUSB/ which will give you an idea of what you can do and where to start. These are firmwares for the PIC18 series of microcontrollers

I am implementing a way to transfer a set of data to a programmable dongle. The dongle is based on a smart card technology and can execute an arbitrary code inside. The input and output data is passed as a binary blocks that can be accessed via input and output pointers. I would like to use an associative array to simplify the data processing code. Everything should work this way: First the host application: // Host application in C++ in_data["method"] = "calc_r"; in_data["id"] = 12; in_data["loc_a"] = 56.19; in_data["loc_l"] = 44.02; processor->send(in_data); Next the code inside the dongle:
