Real-time authorization software License control method

Abstract

The invention provides an enterprise software License control method implementing real-time authorization. The method includes the steps of using an SOA (service oriented architecture) for software, setting controlled quantities, such as the number of client application module concurrent users and the number of servers simultaneously published by a client service module, on a server, and binding the controlled quantities with user names and an automatically generate GUID (globally unique identifier) serial number; after a client binds the user names and the serial number with hardware information such as encryption lock (including computer CPU (central processing unit) serial number, network card serial number and hard disk drive serial number), allowing the client to acquire an encrypted License file from the server; and allowing a License control module to analyze the License file to allow for real-time control of authorization to the whole software system. According to the method, authorization of software can be controlled effectively as the client is communicated with the server in real time, whether the software runs in a virtual machine or not can be detected, and control of versions such as trial version and official version can be performed. The enterprise software License control method implementing real-time authorization is widely applicable to the field of authorization control for computer enterprise software.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of computer enterprise-level software authorization control, in particular to a software license control method for real-time authorization that realizes the functions of periodic software use and regular fee collection for customers. Background technique [0002] Copyright protection is a common concern in the world today, and how to manage and protect enterprise-level software licenses is of great significance. Currently, the two most representative software copyright protection schemes are registration code technology and dongle technology. The registration code technology controls the use of the software by using a set of registration codes related to the software as the operating conditions of the software, but a fatal weakness of the registration code technology is "one code for multiple purposes"; The number of copies of running software can be controlled, but the use of the dongle is not very convenient. The ...
