Sentinel LDK Vendor Keys

When you purchase Sentinel LDK, your Starter Kit contains two Vendor keys—the Master key and the Developer key. These keys enable you to apply protection to your applications, program the Sentinel protection keys that you send to your end users, and to specify the license terms under which your software can be used.

>Developer key

The Developer key is used by your developers in conjunction with the Sentinel LDK protection tools to protect your software and data files. This key is typically connected to the machine on which Sentinel LDK Envelope executes.

>Master key

This key is not required for Sentinel EMS. Store the key in a secure location to prevent misuse.

Before you start working with Sentinel LDK, you must introduce one of your Vendor keys to Sentinel LDK. For more information, see the Sentinel LDK Installation Guide.

For more information regarding the Vendor keys and your Sentinel LDK Master license, see Understanding the Sentinel LDK Master License.
