When identifying a license, the passport photo is used. That is, the license always carries its own passport photo. This list is – analog to a photo in the passport – saved to the computer. When a license is bound to a computer CodeMeter Smart Bind creates the fingerprint of the computer, a cryptographic key, and a list of all features found. CodeMeter SmartBind mathematically maps the complex recognition processes. Carrying the Passport Photo What does this has to do with CodeMeter Smart- Bind? Nature itself has been the model case for CodeMeter SmartBind.

Features are compared and weighed before the final decision yes or no is made.

perfection in software protection – the revolutionary Activation Scheme Easy and secure binding of licenses to a computer Flexible identifying feature generation High system reliability Top security preventing manipulation Dynamic weighing of binding features Until meeting again with the statement „Gee, isn‘t that John Doe“ numerous complex processes take place in the human brain. For adults size is a first excluding criterion while with children and teens this naturally changes. Some change their hair colors like shirts while others keep the original color throughout their lives. It is rather unlikely that the gender changes although possible thanks to modern surgery. And the features are of different quality. However, if this time is longer, then some features may have changed more or less.

If you recognize enough features then you conclude: „Yes, he or she is it.“ When there is only a short time between the first and the last time you meet the person, most of the features will be unchanged. In this case, you would fall back to visible features: facial form, size, weight, gender, hair color, hair length, nose width and length, shape and power of eye-glasses, beard color and form, etc. Imagine further that you cannot use fingerprints since the person wears gloves or you have no fingerprint scanner at hand. How does it work? Imagine you are to identify a person. The challenge is to choose binding features which provide both unique identification of the computer and tolerance of small changes made to the computer still ensuring high reliable license use for the user. SmartBind has been developed by Wibu-System and is patent pending. digital rights, to a computer or other specific devices.
