Method for issuing, using and protecting controllable component

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for issuing, using and protecting a controllable component. The method comprises the following steps that: five roles need to be established; all the roles are mutually authorized; the component is effectively controlled in the process of issuing and using the component in the ways of digital certificates, signatures and encryption; only software produced by a recognized original software producer OSP can use a legal component, and only a recognized component issuing server CS can issue the legal component to a software component user CU; and the software component user CU can apply for the legal software component only by acquiring the software from a legal original software producer OSP. The method has the advantages that the software producer can be qualified for producing the legal software by the scheme so as to ensure that the produced software can use the legal software component, and the component produced by the software component producer can be finally used by the user after being submitted to a component issuer and signed to ensure legal sources of the component.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of computer software, in particular to a controllable software component release and use protection method. Background technique [0002] Software reusability is the key to the prosperous development of the software industry, and to achieve software reusability, "software componentization" is the basis for realizing this goal. With the development of technology and time, component-oriented software development and application is a new trend of software development. [0003] The component-based development of software inevitably puts forward new requirements for the release, use and protection of software components. There are various protection methods used in software today. According to the physical protection method, it can be divided into soft protection and hard protection. The soft protection is protected by the software's own authentication mechanism and registration mechanism, while the hard prote...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] Software componentization technology has begun to flourish, but there is still a lack of effective protection methods for how to use and publish components. Now more and more components run by themselves to obtain permission for component operation through its own license method

This method can only protect the interests of component producers, but cannot control the release and use of the entire component, and cannot protect software component users

[0005] In addition, component technology has brought about innovations in software development and use methods, but there is no unified management of component use and release in some industries, so there will be some safety hazards in use and operation, and it is not possible to ensure that component producers and the interests of customers
