Greetings!
Welcome to the November issue of V.i. Labs News & Views.
 
This month we are highlighting a webinar with IDC's Charles Kolodgy, our presentation at SoftSummit, and a whiteboard demo on Network World TV. We're also extending our free custom piracy analysis offer from SoftSummit. We've got a lot of great content for you, so read on for more details!
Free Custom Piracy Analysis
Our trip to SoftSummit was successful on many levels, but the best part was having the chance to talk to share the findings of our custom piracy analysis with such a wide range of ISVs.
 
Most people are aware that they have a piracy problem, but are hard pressed to quantify it or the impact it has on their business.
 
We are extending our free custom piracy analysis offer to anyone who couldn't make it to SoftSummit last week. Sign up now to schedule your analysis.

Data Loss Prevention and .NET Software Code: Protecting Your Software IP
 
IDCWhile much attention has been paid to Data Loss Prevention (DLP), few organizations have remembered to protect some of their most valuable data: the intellectual property (IP) contained in deployed .NET applications. 

Applications developed for the .NET platform are inherently easy for competitors, hackers, and software pirates to tamper with or steal the valuable or sensitive IP contained in the code. 

Join V.i. Labs' Victor DeMarines and special guest speaker Charles Kolodgy of IDC for a discussion of this neglected aspect of protecting your IP. You will learn:
  • The risks of source code and intellectual property theft when deploying applications - especially those developed in Microsoft .NET
  • What software protection is and how it can offer DLP
  • How to decide when software protection is appropriate/required
  • Customer case studies: software protection in the real world

Learn how to protect your software IP from theft and tampering at this webinar.

Vic recently taped a quick seven minute whiteboard session for Network World.
 
If your team needs a concise presentation on how the piracy world world works and some ways to combat it, be sure to share this video.
Live (and On Demand) from SoftSummit
We made our first attempt at live blogging from the SoftSummit conference, and despite some bandwidth issues we were able to share some of our experiences at the conference with everyone who wasn't able to attend.

Vic also gave a presentation titled, "Demystifying Software Piracy: An "Intelligence" Approach to Recovering Lost Revenue from Unlicensed Customers." The folks at SoftSummit are working to post the video of the presentation, so be sure to keep an eye on the Code Confidential blog for an update as soon as it goes live.
 
Thanks for reading this month's newsletter. I hope you enjoyed Vic's video and the news from SoftSummit. If you haven't already requested a free piracy analysis, sign up now and gain some insight into the scope of your problems. Keep the comments and suggestions coming - we love hearing from our readers!
