KeyServer, developed by Sassafras Software of Hanover NH, addresses the issue of legal software use and other software control concerns without introducing new obstacles for either vendor or user. KeyServer runs as a central network service that enforces usage limits for all applications regardless of whether copies are stored on individual computers or on one or more network file servers. KeyServer simultaneously supports all license models from concurrent use to one-machine/one-install or dedicated. KeyServer can be made to protect, meter, schedule, and control every program on a network, even those programs installed without the administrator's knowledge or permission. In addition to performing as a software license server, KeyServer can also be used to enforce software version consistency throughout a network.
