Licensing Plugin

[SimplyDigitalHosting]

Is there any plans to make your licensing plugin public soon? I have the license system on WHMCS, but I feel yours would be better as I know it uses RSA.

 

Thanks.

It will be better 100% I so suggest you contact Paul on sales[at]domain.com as you might be able to get a beta version. Not sure though so don't guarantee it. As far as I know I believe they have completed it 90%.

I've been toying with my own plugin system for a while now. It was not built on or in to Blesta, but it's been working great so far. I may have to see about porting that over... But I guess I need to refresh my minPHP knowledge first!

We are planning to have it ready for public consumption, at least at a beta level by the end of the month. Being that it's been in production for us since 3.0.0-a1, it's pretty stable.. it's just a matter of a few tweaks, really.

Yeah, pretty hilarious at how weak their licensing system is really.

First link is kind of one of those paranoia scenarios though.  There's a bit of sceince involved that if you want to go to that extreme then you as a sysadmin has more concerns to deal with.

 

As for the NSA one, meh.  The RSA algorithm has been implemented by other sources given PKI and the Diffie-Hellman algorithm is public domain essentially.  So just because RSA was bought out doesn't mean the RSA algorithm itself is unsafe, you just have to know where the algorithm came from.

I'm not trying to say it's bad! Just remember hearing some recent things on the subject! It's all about Knowledge Sharing

I agree just also want to toss in the other side of the coin as well.    The threat is there no doubt but the threat is also not absolute.
