CipherSafe.NET™ Licensing
CipherSafe.NET™ licensing model works on a per-computer basis.
Evaluation
Unlicensed copies of the product can be used for evaluation purposes.
They work exactly as licensed versions with one exception:
they do not allow managing more than one application profile per application type.
Licenses
There are several license categories,
which define the permitted number of computers, on which
the product can be installed.
The following list briefly describes available license categories:
-
Personal license
Allows product registration on 2, 5, 10, 20 and more computers
(up to 100 in increments of 10). Online registration is required.
-
Site license
Can cover 100, 300, or 1000 computers.
All computers must belong to the same company or organization.
Online registration is not required.
- Corporate license
Allows to install the product on the unlimited number of computers
within the same company or organization.
Online registration is not required.
Eligible for free lifetime upgrades.*
- Redistributable license
Allows to redistribute the product to the unlimited number of computers
as part of a single application.
Online registration is not required.
Eligible for free lifetime upgrades.*
One of the main advantages of the Site, Corporate, and Redistributable licenses is that
they allow the users to register product offline using a license file
(see the Registration section below).
Registration
Licensed copies of the product must be registered on every computer where the product is installed.
Product registration is normally done over the Internet.
After initial registration, Site, Corporate, and Redistributable licenses
allow the customers to register additional copies of the product using the license file;
this option does not require Internet connection.
For additional information about registration, see the product documentation.

Site License for 100 computers),
we will ask you to just pay the difference (if any).
If you need to change or upgrade the purchased license,
contact our sales team.
Edition upgrades and downgrades
If you purchase a license for an Enterprise Edition of the product,
you can use it to register a Professional Edition instead,
but not vice versa.

product as long as the version is supported.
