Looking for a crack, keygen or serial number?
ArtistScope is the original innovator and pioneer of copy protection for the Internet and, as the main developer of such security applications since 1998, has been targeted by both hackers and the creators of inferior clones of our solutions.Hackers may offer cracked versions and our competitors may offer repackaged versions that are infected with trojans or virus, incomplete or otherwise crippled. Either way there is one sure test that our software is intact and not manipulated by a third party and that is by checking that the installer and any executables (.exe files) within a compressed package (zip, rar, etc) have been codesigned by ArtistScope using an authoritive certificate provided by Thawte or Verisign.
If it's not code signed or the signing certificate is invalid, it's not from ArtistScope.
Software piracy is illegal and believe it or not hackers can be traced. The very first release of our image encryption software was hacked by a programmer in Czechoslovakia who was most apologetic when we contacted him, but the damage was already done and to prevent the release of another keygenerator ArtistScope changed it's licensing model completely.
We did away with licence keys. Most of our programs are custom compiled to order with encrypted licence details embedded in the executable and those that do use a licence key require online registration before the program will perform properly. Online registrations record the identity of the user and the computer used.
Hidden treasure?
If caught, hackers are faced with much more severe penalties than those that were imposed by the courts a few years ago, so why do hackers take the risk? They don't. Not counting the naive amateurs, hackers today are mostly criminally motivated to infect as many computers as possible to perform a variety of tasks:
