KNOW-HOW
WUPI - Wibu Universal
Protection Interface
Individual software protection is difficult to implement, requires a lot of security knowledge and after two years,
the security quality is probably obsolete. With WUPI this nightmare vanishes. You simply specify the general
framework of what you want to protect and our IxProtector solves the rest. And with the next update of our
protection application you bring to your application the newest security level.
To bring individual copy protection to a high
security level, you need updated knowledge
about hacker technology and attack methods.
Acquiring this knowledge and implementing suitable
protection methods in your own software
updated, varied and enhanced, based on our
latest security knowledge. You simply download
the latest version of our tools before you release
your software – that is all.
calling external functions. And this is supported
by nearly every language: The settings, which
licenses are required and which protection parameters
are set, are all stored in an external
control fi le.

is time-consuming and very expensive. And in a
few short years, your home-grown solution is
obsolete and the time has to be invested again.
And – let’s be honest – most software providers
cannot afford to go through this cycle time after
time; hoping instead that no one will crack the
current version. But when the fi rst copies of the
just released software package appear on the
hacker’s websites, the pressure to create another
security solution is enormous.
Always the most current
security tools
In the future, you can relax after a new release,
because you will be sure that your application
is protected with the very latest in anti-piracy
technology. Just trust in our security expertise
and use WUPI, the new universal API for all
WIBU-SYSTEMS copy protection products. You
simply provide your security framework and
the IxProtector adds, at the desired locations in
your program execution, several security checks.
In future WUPI versions these checks will be
Safe for the Future
WUPI supports all of WIBU-SYSTEMS’ copy
protection systems; this includes WibuKey, CodeMeter
and in the future CodeMeterAct. Using
WUPI will bring a permanent enhancement of
the security, independent of which of our products
you use. Any extension, for example from
CodeMeter to CodeMeterAct, will be realized
with few modifi cations. You can use several protection
technologies at the same time – possibly
you know this already from AxProtector.
Versatile
Possibly you are now thinking: This is only for
C++, and me with my good old Visual Basic, I’m
left out. Far from it! You should be able to work
with your favorite language and still receive a
high level of security. That’s why WIBU-SYSTEMS
developed beyond a fi rst, pointer-based WUPI
variant, which only works with pointer-based
languages like C/C++ and Delphi, a second
variant, which is index-based. For this, the language
should support the loading of DLLs and
Lean but Powerful
WUPI has only twelve simple API functions.
Examine just one and WUPI shows its full power:
Just call WupiCheckLicense() and automatically
a referenced license will be searched, allocated
and used for encryption. And if you want to do
something what WUPI has not provided, for
example the reading of data entries (WibuKey)
or data options (CodeMeter), just call WupiGet-
Handle() to return the entry’s handle and then
continue using the normal, classic API.
WUPI – the API of the Future
Please use WUPI for your next project or for your
next version release – it will be worth doing. And
here is an offer which you should not turn down:
Just download the latest AxProtector package.
