Vancouver, British Columbia - (Cheap Web Hosting Directory) - August 28, 2006 - On-demand e-commerce and digital rights management (DRM) services for software publishers, Protexis, has been approved for a patent that expands the company’s patent holdings surrounding its system of copy protection, electronic licensing, and e-commerce services for software and digital content. Three other patents covering fundamental aspects of the Protexis platform have already been issued, with several others pending.

The patents cover unique product activation technology that enables Protexis to offer software publishers new ways to market and license their software. Using dynamic encryption, publishers can provide their customers the ability to sample and share new software features, ultimately increasing revenue for publishers at very low cost. This technology also affords simplified packaging and decryption of multiple protected items.

Karl Hirsch, CEO of Protexis explained, ”Publishers and their channel partners need a secure and efficient infrastructure, finely tuned for the internet, to capitalize on the surging market for global electronic distribution of software. Our goal is to provide this efficient infrastructure through our patented, channel neutral platform, allowing software publishers to focus on building their businesses and outsourcing these very difficult and critical elements of protecting, selling and distributing their products online.”

Mr. Hirsch continued, ”Receiving this fourth patent is another important milestone as Protexis accelerates on its vision and growth plan. We’re committed to building an intellectual property portfolio around our expertise in enabling state-of-the-art global distribution of digital content. We have additional patents pending and will continue to build legal protection for our innovations to help our customers compete successfully.”

Protexis provides efficient global infrastructure for the protection, sale and distribution of software, including product activation technology, e-commerce services and electronic software distribution. Protexis serves over 1,500 software publisher customers today, including leading publishers such as DivX Networks, Enterbrain, Riverdeep Inc. and Sage Technologies. Protexis holds a total of four issued and 11 pending United States and international patents, and continues to focus on increasing its portfolio of intellectual property. Protexis enables the secure digital sale and distribution of millions of copies of software worldwide and is privately-held, with headquarters in Vancouver, British Columbia, and offices in Seattle, Washington.
