Method and device for shielding unauthorized users from starting software

Abstract

The invention provides a device used for preventing an unauthorized user from starting software. The device comprises a data interface, a storage and a main control chip. The data interface is used for transmitting obtained MAC addresses of a computer and input user passwords. The storage is used for storing system files, storing the MAC address and an account name which are obtained when the device is connected with the computer at the first time and storing the user password input at the first time. The main control chip is used for conducting verification on the obtained current MAC address of the computer and the original MAC address obtained at the first time and conducting verification on the current input user password and the original user password input at the first time and executes related operations according to verification results. A method with the device adopted comprises the steps that if the obtained current MAC address of the computer is the same as the original computer MAC address obtained at the first time, a user password input window is popped up; if the current input user password is the same as the original user password input at the first time, software is started. According to the method and device for preventing the unauthorized user from starting the software, after it is determined that the current computer is not bonded with a USERKEY, the specific software cannot be started so as to guarantee the safety and the effectiveness of the software.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a shielding method, in particular to a method and device for shielding unauthorized users from starting software. Background technique [0002] At present, in order to collect software usage fees from users, existing software companies restrict illegal use of software by requiring users to input product serial numbers and keys when the software is started. However, there are still great disadvantages in the use of this authorization. For example, hackers or criminals can easily use vulnerability analysis tools, disassembly, DLL injection, serial number registration and other means to destroy, thereby bypassing the normal verification process to start software, so that the security and effectiveness of the software are greatly challenged. Contents of the invention [0003] In view of the deficiencies in the above problems, the present invention provides a method for shielding unauthorized use after determining that the curren...
