SafeNet has announced enhancements to its award-winning Sentinel software monetization solution, Sentinel Cloud, that enables independent software vendors (ISVs) to easily license and monetize their on-premise, hybrid, and cloud-based solutions.

This enhancement to the Sentinel portfolio was specifically designed for ISVs that are reaching for the cloud but not quite ready to make the full transition away from on-premise software stated by SafeNet vice president, product management, Jake Fox. We know there are a lot of reasons why vendors can’t fully transition their software to the cloud – from legacy customers to legacy back-end systems and licensing models. We get that, and we have enhanced the Cross-Locking of our Sentinel portfolio specifically to help them seamlessly migrate all or a portion of their business to the cloud on a timetable that works best with their existing architecture and licensing models.

Key Benefits for Customers:

SafeNet’s award-winning Sentinel family of licensing and monetization software and services is designed to drive monetization by enabling software developers to define flexible service catalogs, provision contracts, and automate business processes, as well as control and monitor usage, and adapt offerings to meet customers evolving needs.

The features of SafeNet’s Sentinel Cloud solution, which have been designed specifically to support an ISV’s transition from on-premise-only to hybrid or SaaS-only delivery models, include:

• Common source code for all applications, whether installed on-premise or delivered as a cloud service
• Support for cloud elasticity to address the licensing demands of SaaS users
• Offline behavior control, including usage data collection and enforcement to support ‘usage-based’ business models for occasionally disconnected applications
• A single common operational system for provisioning and delivering business metrics to streamline all licensing and entitlement management tasks across an ISV’s product and services portfolio

Only SafeNet’s Sentinel technology provides all of these features in a single solution.
