Licensing in Virtualized Environments

SafeNet offers the industry's first and only technology agnostic VM binding solution. By enabling software vendors to bind a license to a single VM just as they would in a traditional licensing scenario, SafeNet's technology protects the license and therefore the application from copy and duplication in any end-user environment, virtualized or otherwise. Furthermore, the solution includes increased security for new virtualization concepts such as Live Migration, e.g. VMware vSphere vMotion, by using a unique FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name) locking. SafeNet is the industry's only software licensing and management technology vendor to offer ISVs both hardware and software based options for licensing applications in any virtualized environment.
