USBkey is a new kind of intelligent security product that comprises microprocessor and operation system. Computer software is intellectual property, and is protected by copyright law. This paper proposes a software protection method that utilizes efficient calculation ability and security space of USB key in environment, which combines protection methods, identity authentication and trusted computing technology. In this project we proposed to develop a hardware based solution to prevent software piracy. A hardware based system consist of physical device and hence cannot be shared over the internet and hence eliminates the flaws of conventional mechanisms discussed above.
