16
SmartKey EP 's second special characteristic is the option for freezing passwords and data after they are programmed:
This means one can irreversibly fix the codes and data programmed in the dongle by the software-house. Any
subsequent manipulation of the dongle for fraudulent purposes is prevented, e.g. to modify one's access rights to
databanks or the operational limits of the supplied software.
• Algorithmic protection based on a unique, personal code (Id-Code)
• Algorithmic protection based on a 20 customizable security codes using the AES cryptographic algorithm for
SmartKey USB 3
• Additional 16-byte programmable security codes (Label and Password)
• 64-byte of internal programmable memory (Secure Data). 128 for SmartKey USB DL (Driver Less)
• Counter of fraudulent access attempts (Fail Counter)
• Freezing of programmed data.
•
Optional limitation of the number of executions of the program to be protected.
4.4 SP & XM
SmartKey SP and XM are the most sophisticated models of the SmartKey family. They are suitable for top-security
applications, for expensive programs and for at-risk environments, where there is a very high probability of
disseminating illegal copies.
SmartKey SP is a development of SmartKey EP, extending its internal memory (Secure Data) from 64 bytes to 416/896.
SmartKey XM extends the memory to 8192 bytes.
But the unique characteristic of SmartKey SP and XM is the Encryption function, which enables the definition of user-
programmable security algorithms. A software house can therefore personalize the dongle not only via the Secure Data
field (extended to 416/896 bytes), but can also program its own personal security algorithm in addition to the standard
algorithm guaranteed by the Id-Code.

4.5 NET
SmartKey NET is the model for programs on a local network. SmartKey NET is designed to:
• Protect the software written for local networks from the abusive copy
• Enable control of the number of users who may simultaneously use the protected program.
The protection requires a single SmartKey NET dongle installed on any computer of the network.
SmartKey NET is capable of managing several networked users. The maximum number of users can be programmed on
the dongle itself. One can define the number of users enabled to use the same software package.
