Problems solved by technology

Since access to the encryption chip is based on serial IO control, the access speed will be relatively slow, and the general interaction cycle will reach more than 20ms. In the traditional single-thread encryption protection method, the entire system must wait for the encryption authentication process to execute during the encryption authentication process. In the case of high real-time requirements, such a large delay in the running process of the program will directly affect the performance of the system
Moreover, in this protection method, the authentication process is performed in one place of the code as the entrance and exit of the authentication, and the risk of being cracked is relatively high

Embodiment Construction

[0020] Describe in detail below in conjunction with specific implementation plan:

[0021] The key function thread that adopts in this specific embodiment only adopts one, namely key function thread C, but this does not affect the scope of protection of the present invention, because can add a plurality of key function threads as required, carry out multiple nesting authentication by inter-thread communication , in order to increase protection.

[0022] This method is used to perform multi-threaded hardware encryption authentication by adopting a general encryption chip, and has an encryption memory chip. Its hardware connection is as follows figure 1 shown. Since the MCU and the encryption memory chip use a serial interface for communication, such as SPI or I2C, the recommended encryption memory chip has only 8 pins and is packaged in SOIC, which occupies a relatively small space (7mm×5.5mm) and is low in cost. , it is easy to increase, and it is also very convenient to tr...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for protecting encryption software, which features multi-threading nesting and combination of flexibility, security and high performance. The method of the invention is an encryption authentication method which adopts encryption chips to carry out multithreads; the multithreads consist of a key thread, a key management thread and a key function thread, wherein, the key thread takes charge of encryption authentication process, and the key management thread and the key function thread take charge of post-authentication processing procedures; multi-nest authentication is carried out among the multithreads. The method of the invention can not only well avoid property loss but also greatly increase the difficulty of cracking software.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a software protection method for preventing illegal copying or plagiarism of software, in particular to a method for protecting encryption software. Background technique [0002] With the development of science and technology, software plays an increasingly important role in new products. In order to protect the intellectual property rights of products and prevent illegal copying and plagiarism, the industry has adopted various methods for encryption protection. [0003] In the traditional general-purpose encryption chip protection method, the encryption access program is generally embedded in a single thread, and the system accesses the encryption chip every time it executes to a specific position, and waits for the encrypted authentication information to return before executing the normal program flow. Since access to the encryption chip is based on serial IO control, the access speed will be relatively slow, and the general...
