Runge Group Chooses V.i. Labs' CodeArmor to Protect Its Software Intellectual Property in Emerging Markets

WALTHAM, Mass. --(Business Wire)-- V.i. Laboratories, Inc. ("V.i. Labs"), a provider of software protection solutions for securing high-value and mission-critical applications, announced that Australian-based Runge Group has selected CodeArmor(TM) to protect its software solutions from piracy and code theft.

The Runge Group is a leader in the provision of technology and services to the global mining industry. The Group is recognized as a thought leader providing services for mines worldwide from start up to production including feasibility studies, due diligence and valuation, mine planning and scheduling, mine optimisation, business systems and software solutions.

Runge's high-value software applications are increasingly being sold into countries where software intellectual property (IP) laws and enforcement are weak. It wanted to protect the integrity of its licensing system to deter piracy and prevent the theft of its IP contained in the product codebase by protecting it from being decompiled by malicious third parties.

"As we expand into new markets, we want to be proactive and layer software licensing and protection together. We also know that a higher level of protection is needed in conjunction with our licensing investment to prevent piracy," said Runge CTO Scott Henderson. "We chose CodeArmor for its unique support of both native Windows and Microsoft .NET applications, and the ease with which we can automate the protection of our software."

CodeArmor provides a unique dynamic protection capability through constant monitoring and updating of the latest attack vectors and strategies. As a result, ISVs can focus on their core competencies and easily update their software protection without impacting engineering resources or their software development lifecycle.

"Selling high-value software in emerging markets comes with its own unique challenges," said Victor DeMarines, vice president of products at V.i. Labs. "It is not uncommon to find legitimate businesses building complex products or running their enterprises using pirated software. CodeArmor provides multiple layers of protection against reverse engineering for both .NET and native applications that level the playing field for ISVs in these markets."

  • Seven Best Practices for Speech Analytics: Speech analytics is valuable for identifying issues in the contact center. However, limiting its use to the contact center only considers a portion of all customer interactions and subsequently only reveals a small part of the voice of the customer. This paper discusses how organizations can optimize their Speech Analytics implementation strategy to realize the promise of this exciting technology.
  • Understanding the Voice of the Customer: Today's contact centers involve a sea of information that must be captured, processed, and distributed on a daily basis. Effective use of this information enables companies to remain competitive in an increasingly aggressive and customer centric marketplace. An overwhelming percentage of the information that circulates in a contact center's audio recordings, documents, web pages, and emails is unstructured in that it resides outside of a normal structured database and cannot be managed efficiently. These unstructured items contain valuable information, yet this information historically has been difficult to organize, categorize, and access.
