ROCKEY6 Smart MCU Smart Card based Software Protection Dongle

ROCKEY6 Smart is the first Software License dongle in the world deploy advanced 32-bit microprocessor smart card chip with unique architecture of smart card and reader on the single chip. As the smartest software license dongle, it is a HID driverless model of which no driver installation is necessary and support full 64-bit software protection, i.e. a protection solution for 32-bit software running on 64-bit Operating System and also for native 64-bit applications.

ROCKEY6 Smart is embedded with popular C51 Virtual Machine on the Chip and integrated with Keil compiler. As a powerful minicomputer, developers can write special programs via C51 and run it securely inside the highly protected smart card environment.

Additional advanced features in ROCKEY6 Smart include big 78K internal memory, supports onboard algorithms (RAS, DES, MD5, SHA-1), Soft Timer for time-limit license and built-in internal counter. We also provide high-level Secure Remote Update tool which support multiple schemes.

• Smart Card Security - ROCKEY6 uses smart card technology widely used by the most security conscious sectors worldwide such as financial institutions and government. It complies with all smart card standards and utilizes smart card technology as a "black box" to protect and execute core portion of application code. Developers may protect their software by storing algorithms, data and programs inside the protected R0CKEY6 environment and executing in isolation from the PC. More importantly, smart card chip is impossible to duplicate and proper authorities are require in order to access the card.
  

• Powerful Encryption Algorithms - ROCKEY6 support onboard algorithms which include RAS, DES, MD5 and SHA-1. It can therefore support far stronger encryption mechanisms than most products available in the market.
  

• Driverless Technology - ROCKEY6 is developed based on latest HID driverless mechanism for USB devices. It is not only more convenient for end user without the need of installing device driver but will also eliminate possible supporting issue arise from device driver problem. It is also provide protection solution for X64 applications. As long as a computer that support USB Thumb drive, so do it will support ROCKEY6.
  

• Innovative Features - ROCKEY6 created new idea for software license protection that will not only making hacking impossible but also provide a fun and user-friendly integration. C51 Keil compiler has ease the smart card programming where it is very similar to C language that many developers are already familiar with. Soft Timer inside ROCKEY6 provide time control facility without worry of internal battery die off like many other competing products. High-level Remote Update, Batch Production and Multiple Module Scheme are many ready to use features that useful for developers to implement into their desire license policy.

New innovative protection concept where developer is required to create and store an executable file inside the dongle device. This inside file is completely sealed and isolated from the PC. Without this file, the whole program cannot be executed successfully.

Step 1 - Choose Core/Kernel Codes

Identify and choose the vital part of Core Codes from the Original Project (The to be protected main program). Core Codes are usually the important coding part that involve crucial operation or calculation formula that if without it, the whole program won't executed successfully.

Step 2 - Modify Non-C Language Project into C Language Project

Develop or modify the selected Core Code into C Language Project. Skip this step if Original Project is a C Language Project.

Step 3 - Create/Convert C Language Project into C51 Project

Create or Convert into C51 Project (i.e. External Program) using Keil Compiler in IDE.

Step 4 - Test C51 Project with Virtual Card

Test and Debug the C51 Project (i.e. External Program) with the Virtual Card.

Step5 - Download Tested C51 Project into ROCKEY6 Smart Card

Download the C51 Project (i.e. External Program) into ROCKEY6 Smart Card, i.e. import all files of the virtual card into the real card, and Test it.

Step 6 - Remove Core/Kernel Codes from Main Application

Remove Core Code from the Original Project.

Step 7 - Include Communication between Main Application and ROCKEY6 Smart

Include intercommunication between Original Project with the C51 Project (i.e External Program) that on the real card and it will become the Final Project that integrated with ROCKEY6 Smart.

• Smartest and Uncrackable Security
  ROCKEY6 makes it virtually impossible for hackers to track, debug or read the intercommunication between the protected application and special programs inside ROCKEY6. In hardware, it is also not possible to duplicate nor access without proper authorities.

• Highest Performance in the Industry
  32-bit CPU, smart card and reader on the single chip, together with own pattern fast transfer architecture; ROCKEY6 Smart just simply outperform all other competing products even with the most complex computation.

• User Friendliness for both Developer and End User
  ROCKEY6 Smart HID driverless technology will ease end user installation and eliminate potential technical support issue arise from device driver problem. It also provide familiar development platform for developer to program the smart card with C51 Keil compiler.

• Value for Money
  World class security product at generally affordable pricing, ROCKEY6 Smart give everyone no reason to reject.

• Feature Rich
  ROCKEY6 Smart come with many ready to use features that will provide developer complete solution with high security level.

  • Customer unique ID codes and globally unique hardware ID

  • Changeable Super Password and upto 16-level File Security Level.

  • Onboard Algorithms include RAS, DES, MD5 and SHA-1.
