PreEmptive Releases DashO 5
PreEmptive Solutions today announced the release of DashO Version 5.
"DashO 5 offers the same runtime session and feature monitoring that PreEmptive's Dotfuscator does for .NET developers," writes SD Times' David Worthington. "That includes instrumenting Java applications for tracking feature use, enabling time limits on application use, and detecting and defending against tampering. Data is served up to a Windows-based portal, said chief marketing officer Sebastian Holst. Visual Studio and .NET have been PreEmptive's top targets, so its Java product has lagged behind, he acknowledged. Other new features include support for the Hibernate and Spring frameworks, JSP Tag Libraries, and WAR (Web Application Archive) files. DashO also offers code protection, as well as feature measurement and management for the Android platform."
"This release represents the culmination of a year's worth development investment in the DashO product suite," says company vice president Michael Moores. "Our clients have long recognized the importance of protecting intellectual property and securing applications, but there is a lot of excitement about the prospect of combining application security with application monitoring to better establish R&D priorities and ultimately increase the return on application development investments."
