| What is software protection
dongle? |
Software protection Dongle is a small hardware device that connects to a computer to authenticate some piece of software. This was its primary meaning in the computer industry in the 1980s and 1990s. When the dongle is not present, the software runs in a restricted mode or refuses to run. Some proprietary vendors use Dongles as a form of copy prevention or digital rights management because it is much harder to copy the dongle than to copy the software it authenticates.
Vendors of software protection dongles (and
dongle-controlled software) often use terms such as hardware key, hardware token, or security device, USB

| What
is Kernel filter technology? |
Kernel Filter is a new technology developed by SecuTech Solution Inc. Targeted at digital intellectual property rights copy protection,
Kernel Filter can be applied for all kinds of content file and it is also possible,
due to its flexibility, to design and build additional specific applications based on
this technology.
The basic function of such technology is to encrypt content of a file.
Without proper authentication, all content in the files is encrypted and inaccessible. Only an authorized user can access the correct content of the files. The functionality
of Kernel Filter can be extended to anti-copying, which various copy protection solutions can
be derived.
Kernel filter technology could be used to protect
content files such as video, audio, database, source files, document files
etc, as also could be used to prevent unauthorized access. Kernel Filter is versatile and easy. |
