When WetStone began seeing their products and software being sold on eBay and other Internet auction sites, they realized that effective copy protection was essential in terms of protecting their intellectual property and maintaining their revenue. WetStone started looking for a solution that would help them protect themselves against software piracy.

During their search for a digital rights management system, WetStone evaluated solutions from several vendors to determine which one would best meet their current and future needs. Because it would help ensure proper use of WetStone’s advanced software and offered numerous benefits, WetStone chose Aladdin’s HASP SRM.

For WetStone, one of the most important benefits of implementing HASP SRM protection has been an increase in sales. Because HASP SRM makes theft and illegal copying of WetStone software substantially more difficult if not impossible, organizations are now purchasing multiple copies of WetStone software for multiple users. WetStone's customers have also been pleased with Aladdin’s copy protection system. HASP SRM protects companies who purchase WetStone’s software against internal software theft. Installing WetStone's software is also quite easy for customers. They simply have to insert the HASP SRM USB key to run the program. In addition, businesses can easily track software licenses and license multiple products with a single device. Finally, WetStone has been able to customize HASP keys to offer trial or short-term subscriptions. Overall, HASP SRM has proven to be a flexible, powerful, and scalable solution capable of meeting WetStone's current and future software protection needs.
