[Miscellaneous] I went to the Automotive Technology Exhibition. Where is CodeMeter used in the automotive industry?

We use CodeMeter's automatic encryption tool AxProtector to strongly encrypt applications. *Free trial version available.

■Automation of Protection CodeMeter's automatic encryption tool, AxProtector, is an ideal solution that saves time and effort in software protection. By using AxProtector, you can protect your software in a completely automated manner from unauthorized use and reverse engineering. AxProtector encrypts the entire set of software you want to protect and secures it with AxEngine, a security shell. Then, the best anti-debugging and anti-disassembly methods are inserted into the software. ■Supported OS AxProtector protects executable files and libraries on Windows, macOS, and Linux. It also supports Python, .NET, and JavaScript.

• Software (middle, driver, security, etc.)
• Firewall and intrusion prevention
• Encryption and authentication

Easily set up a system that uses a USB dongle as a license key for authentication on PCs and devices. Compatible with Win/Mac/Linux.

When developing a software business, it is as important to consider how to provide licenses and authentication as it is to examine licensing models such as subscriptions. 'CodeMeter' enables software protection and licensing, and it can provide created licenses via a USB hardware dongle. By offering licenses through a dongle, software can be used in both online and offline environments, allowing for proper license management. Below are the benefits from the perspective of end users (your customers) when licenses are provided via a dongle: ■ Convenient for portability: The license is stored in the dongle, making it easy to move the license. ■ Easy license recovery: Even if the PC crashes, inserting the dongle into another PC allows immediate access to the software. ■ Convenient for license borrowing: Licenses can be borrowed for use in locations without internet access, such as during business trips or on-site work. ■ License redundancy: Important for mission-critical applications (ideal for hot standby and cold standby).

• Encryption and authentication

With a license, access restrictions are possible.

Standalone applications created using MATLAB Compiler or Simulink Compiler do not require a MATLAB/Simulink license and can be duplicated, making them convenient for free distribution to an unspecified number of people. On the other hand, if you want to implement access control for applications with requirements such as "I want it to be usable during the project period" or "I don't want it to be provided to third parties without permission," what should you do? Should we document the terms of the agreement? If you are doing business within Japan, this method may be somewhat acceptable. However, if you are expanding your business overseas, it is necessary to reconsider. Therefore, in response to concerns about the leakage or copying of code and logic developed in MATLAB, implementing access control through CodeMeter's encryption and license authentication features is effective. Additionally, by attaching conditions such as expiration dates or usage limits to the license, you can sell licenses for the standalone applications you create, which can enhance business profitability.

Tokyo, August 14, 2025 - (JCN Newswire) - Global consulting firm AlixPartners (hereinafter referred to as "the Company") has conducted a survey of industry experts involved in turnaround and restructuring in Asia and has released the latest report titled "2025 Asia Turnaround & Restructuring Survey" (hereinafter referred to as "the Survey"). The results of this survey indicate that, amidst ongoing geopolitical tensions affecting the economic situation, there is an optimistic outlook in Asia regarding global market instability and uncertainty. On the other hand, over 90% of respondents predict that geopolitical turmoil, such as regime changes and conflicts, will lead to an increase in corporate underperformance in the Asia region. Additionally, about 70% believe that global supply chain challenges will worsen over the next year, indicating that as international circumstances become more complex, the impact of such changes on Asian businesses is expanding.
