Software protection is one form of defense for ISVs. But for some ISVs, the lack of data, complexity in their customer base, product maturity, and market dynamics may require a detection, reporting and lead generation strategy to recover license revenue.

 

CodeArmor Intelligence provides a product approach that can be easily integrated into applications to detect piracy threats, centrally gather forensic data, and create piracy leads to support sales and legal efforts to recover revenue.
 

"The EDA software industry in particular has been challenged to measure the true piracy loss for its software. Piracy effects more than license revenue. It can have significant ripple effects because the use of pirated software greatly reduces the cost of created electronic devices," said Scott Baeder, Anti-Piracy Committee Chairman, Electronic Design Automation Consortium. "The CodeArmor Intelligence solution is very important since it can give software vendors a way to generate concrete evidence of unauthorized use and reduce the revenue loss attributed to piracy."
