General information

What is the difference between the WF 2007 and the WF 2008 dongles?
The WF 2007 dongles is used for targets running LabVIEW RealTime (RT). The WF 2008 are for targets running “standard” LabVIEW, i.e. LabVIEW for Windows, Mac and Linux.

How does it work?
The dongle has a secure memory to hold secret keys and data. Using the supplied LabVIEW driver, the presence of a dongle with a certain key is queried using a new random challenge each time. The key never leaves the dongle, it just sends the resulting hash back to the driver. This ensures that the dongles cannot be copied or imitated. Protection against brute force attacks is guaranteed by using industry standard SHA-256 hash algorithm with 256 bit keys. This means more possible key values than there are atoms in the sun!

What items do I need to purchase and/or download to use the WireFlow dongles for protecting my LabVIEW application from being duplicated?

1. Download the WF Security Dongle Software Package.
It contains:
a. LabVIEW Dongle Drivers.vipc. It provides VI’s that you shall embed in your application. (This software is free)
b. WF-Dongle Device Driver. Install this on the Windows target PC’s if you use WF 2008 dongles. (This software is free)
c. WF Security Suite Programming Application. Use this application to program your secret keys into the dongles. (You need to buy a license to activate this application)

2. Buy a license for the WF Security Suite Programming Application
(Article no AE009) from WireFlow. You need one such license.

3. Buy some WF 2008 (Windows) or WF 2007 (RT), USB Security dongles from WireFlow. You will need one dongle for each system you want to deploy.

4. Read the document AC0045-003 WF Security Suite – Quick Guide. It gives
a short step by step instruction for how to create your security solution.
