Physical electronic key

This device is sent to the client when the license is acquired. Recorded within it are the use permits of the CYPE programs and modules the client has acquired. To be able to use the programs, this license must be connected to a USB port of the computer where the programs are to be used, or to another computer within the user’s network in the case of a multiple-post license. It may be that some users have a physical electronic parallel port, which even though CYPE no longer supplies them, can still be used without any problem.

Virtual electronic key or Electronic license

In this case there is no physical device and the use permits of the programs and modules acquired by the client are recorded in a server belonging to CYPE. This device is called an Electronic license. To be able to use the programs and modules of the electronic license, the user must have a permanent broadband internet connection at the computer where the CYPE programs are going to be used. In the CYPE programs menu, an option is present allowing the user to connect to the electronic license, where the program will request the user to identify him/herself with a personal name and password provided by CYPE.

All electronic licenses are single post licenses. If a client requires several simultaneous work stations of CYPE programs, several electronic licenses can be acquired, with the same discounts applied to them as if they were physical single or multiple post electronic keys.

The electronic license allows the user to use the acquired CYPE programs at any computer that works with operating systems which are compatible with CYPE software and have a permanent broadband internet connection, without the need of having to carry a physical safety device.
