April 15, 2008 – SeriousBit today announces SeriousBit Ellipter 1.1.1, a .NET library that enables small and medium-sized shareware companies to take advantage of the new anti-keygen technology to secure their intellectual property and reduce development time. By introducing the security method based on elliptic curves asymmetric cryptography, Ellipter 1.1.1 makes it impossible for the hacker to create a keygen for a shareware product.
Using Ellipter, shareware developers can add licensing protection to their software that will enable it to create and verify product keys securely. The capability is based on the unique asymmetric technology of encryption that uses elliptic curves to increase the security of the entire algorithm and reduce the length of generated keys (only 29 characters when no product information is embedded). Once integrated, Ellipter makes it impossible for the hacker to create a keygen by reverse-engineering the code of the application, or even having full access to it.
