Since Aladdin's founding in 1985, Aladdin has provided software
publishers and developers with powerful protection against piracy
through Aladdin HASP software protection and license management
products. Named the world's largest provider of software licensing
and authentication tokens by IDC, Aladdin continues to save
organizations billions of dollars in lost revenues caused by
pirates. Using annual piracy rates from around the globe and the
increasing cost of software piracy each year, Aladdin's CEO Mr.
Yanki Margalit today announced that Aladdin conservatively
estimates HASP's privacy prevention at half of a trillion dollars.
"As the world's largest provider of hardware-based software
anti-piracy solutions, Aladdin is proud to celebrate more than $500
billion in software piracy prevention," Margalit said. "We continue
to develop and offer innovative, flexible Aladdin HASP solutions
for developers that not only secure their products, but also
increase revenues through customizable sales models. This week
serves as a significant celebration for Aladdin, marking not only
our 20-year history and 30 millionth HASP key sold, but our large
role in anti-piracy efforts around the globe." To celebrate
Aladdin's 20-year history, Margalit is scheduled to host numerous
long-time customers in Tel Aviv, Israel during a conference for
employees and distributors this week. For more information on the
