An iLok is a special USB device that helps you store your licenses for software protected by the iLok system. Software companies use the iLok system to provide secure protection for the software they produce. When you run software protected by iLok, it looks for the license on the connected iLok device.
Why use iLok?
It’s portable - Authorise your software programs wherever you have them installed. From home, at work, or on a remotely controlled computer, your licenses are with you, not on the computer.
It’s convenient and can work on various platforms - Store your software licenses from Mac and Windows on a single iLok. An iLok can hold up to 1500 licenses (3rd generation iLok).
Worry-free - Your licenses are on the most secure solution: the iLok. With Zero Downtime™, you can relax.
