Pace iLok

 

Pace iLok is a hardware USB dongle that accepts "license chips" for software authorization. iLok uses the same, secure Smart Card technology that you've probably already used in cellphones, casinos, on the American Express blue card, and so forth. You can take your iLok dongle anywhere, and use the software on any computer free from the problems of hard drive failures, computers which don't have floppy disks, and so forth.
