What is the intended purpose of this dongle? Verification? A token or something?

You might want to look at a predeveloped solution for that. If you use a USB flash drive for that, and you have a token in the form of a file on that drive, then someone can take the file off of that drive, and copy it to another drive.

have you looked at some turnkey-style authentication solutions for your application? there are already a number of pre-existing solutions for this that you might want to consider looking at instead.

what is that (turnkey-style authentication solutions) ? i don not know any thing about it, if you can help me in some links explain turnkey-style authentication solutions i will be thankful

another thing, do you mean if i convert my USB flash to dongle flash it will not be very good for security stuff -any one can copy it ?. is that mean the dongle flash hardware specially designed for dongles ?

the last thing i asked about, i want to know how dongles software was developed? how can i develope my special dongle software and what hardware and software requirements dongle is need to be developed?

thats my all wondering. if you can help me

Nice Thanks,

Fidaa Khader

They're called USB tokens. There are all kinds of ones available. Simply check this Google search out:

But yes. What I was saying is that unless you really make a complicated scheme to prevent someone from copying it, someone could simply copy the files over to a new memory key.

Isn't there some way to make the newly converted flash drive secure other than saving files to it? Isn't there a unique serial number for the flash drive that our application can use? C'mon guys, there's got to be a way!
