Abstract

One of the most significant concerns of software corporations is protect their products against unauthorized copying. Since now the researchers proposed some copy protection models that all of them have weakness to protect against unauthorized copying. The goal of this paper is propose novel model of serial-based method that more security against illegal usage and offered Online Modules model, in serial-based method that it spilt the software to two parts as well. Fist part run in client and second part run in web service, when the software needs to use the second part then the software connect to the web service and the server check the software license. If the license has been valid then run the second part. This model compares with online activation model in serial-based method and we will show the proposed model has more secure against unauthorized copying.
