ROCKEY4 development tools

ROCKEY4 is a hardware based software protection system. Unlike some competing products, ROCKEY4 is in fact a powerful miniature computer, with a CPU, memory and specialised firmware that allows for robust interaction with your application. You may write complex algorithms that are securely stored in the dongle, and then call those algorithms from time-to-time in your application. This method for software protection is almost impossible to crack. Although designed to implement extremely high levels of security, it is also relatively easy to implement.

The ROCKEY protection system has two general mechanisms to protect your software: the ROCKEY Envelope and the ROCKEY API.

  • ROCKEY Envelope The Envelope program allows software developers to encrypt any executable files in a few simple steps. This solution does not require any programming skills and is an ideal solution if you do not posses the source code for the application. The envelope program is also useful when used in conjunction with the API to enhance a software protection mechanism. However, an envelope program is not considered strong protection when used without calls to the API and is limited to Windows executable files (.exe, .arx, .dll). The ROCKEY4 dongle also provides envelope programs for .Net, flash media (.swf) applications.
  • ROCKEY API is a program language interface between the dongle and the developer's application. The ROCKEY API stack supports several programming languages and allows the developer flexibility to create very powerful encryption mechanisms. API protection requires that the developer have access to the source code and become familiar with the ROCKEY API.
  • Editor. ROCKEY4's Editor is a useful tool for developer to perform dongle configuration, testing and batch production. This convenient tool allow developer to learn and edit the usable memory of ROCKEY4 dongles.
  • Data Recorder. ROCKEY4's Data Recorder give developer a means to keep track and record issued dongle configuration of which it provide a simple dongle management solution.
  • Remote Update. ROCKEY4's Remote Update provide useful tool that developer can create a secure patch file to update ROCKEY4 dongle remotely. All the content will be encrypted with DES and will only be decrypted with the valid ROCKEY4 dongle. With this tool, developer can simply re-enable the dongle, open more functions or re-license the dongle, etc.

The ROCKEY4 development kit contains a ROCKEY4 and a CD. The CD contains all tools, drivers, installation software, extensive examples and API's in many program languages. Order this kit now, and secure your future in a few days!
