Microsoft Software Licensing and Protection Services (SLP Services)
Earlier this year, Microsoft acquired a company called Secured Dimensions that had unique .NET protection technology along with a licensing server and hosted online service.
This has turned into the Microsoft® Software Licensing and Protection (SLP) Services
The Microsoft® Software Licensing and Protection (SLP) Services provides enforcement of IP protection for ISVs to help protect revenues from pirates and competitors, enables SKU agility and flexible license models to help increase sales, and improves efficiency for development and business workflows to allow the ISV to get to market faster and for less money.
By offering these benefits, Microsoft SLP Services is:
“Building a bridge
between software
and software business”
I remember talking to a number of companies in Australia who were looking for this kind of technology, and now it's here.
