ByteShield's copy protection engine licensed by GamersGate
ByteShield, Inc. sent over a press release announcing that GamersGate has chosen ByteShield's end-user friendly Dynamic License and Copy Protection Engine for its line-up of PC games. ByteShield's design avoids the weak protections and vulnerabilities of existing solutions and their negative effects on user experience. ByteShield takes full advantage of the Internet, employing a central server to manage the protection and verify the installations. ByteShield’s system design enables the product to be transparent to the end user, while so time consuming to crack that the incentives for the crackers disappear. To remove ByteShield’s protection system, the cracker needs to reverse engineer the entire protected application. A single or a couple of patches will not suffice to open up the application to copying or tampering. Everything is intertwined and interdependent.
