Code Guard: Secure Distribution and Licensing

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: In the digital age, unauthorized access and source code exposure are escalating concerns, posing significant threats to software security and intellectual property. These vulnerabilities risk data integrity and enable potential theft of proprietary algorithms, leading to business and competitive disadvantages. Traditional software distribution methods are increasingly susceptible to tampering, compromising code security and opening opportunities for exploitation. Moreover, enforcing valid software licensing proves challenging, allowing misuse and unauthorized redistribution, which contributes to revenue loss and undermines intellectual property rights. Current methods fall short in effectively detecting unauthorized access and unauthorized usage, necessitating more robust solutions. This paper explores new strategies for secure software distribution, enhanced licensing enforcement, and frameworks designed to protect intellectual assets from tampering and misuse.
