Guardant Code Pro is your ultimate solution for copy protection. Code Pro unites the most advanced and powerful electronic dongle with a high-capacity flash drive of up to 64 Gb. Equipped with a high-performance
ARM7-processor and an encrypted storage, available only from within the dongle using the built-in filesystem — Guardant Code Pro is a miniature full feature minicomputer. Which makes it a perfect black box — both for ultimate copy protection and convenience of portable software. Works on virtually any platform.

What is Code Pro
Guardant Code Pro is an innovative dongle combining powerful copy-protection device with a high-capacity Flash-drive. What makes this dongle unique is a deep integration between the dongle and flash-memory. Due to that level of control over the flash, Guardant Code has a dedicated memory zone — formatted as a hidden drive, with seamless AES256-encryption and reachable only from within the dongle’s loadable code.
This effectively makes a dongle into a minicomputer: it’s equipped with 256 Kb of memory for code, 32 Kb of RAM and 16 Mb encrypted HDD unit. This combination allows for a very powerful protection: you can port a meaningful portion of your intellectual property right into the dongle, and since this code can’t be extracted from the dongle — only run by it — protected software effectively becomes unstealable.
Applications
Here are some examples of what you can do with Guardant Code Pro:
- Sophisticated mathematical calculations, that need to be protected;
- Custom DRM with built-in encrypted storage for content;
- Using filesystem to communicate with your software.
Seamless integration of dongle and flash-drive along with modern communication protocols make this dongle applicable virtually everythere.
- Hardware platform
- 32-bit Cortex-M4 microcontroller.
- 4096 bytes of protected EEPROM.
- Up to 1 Gb encrypted storage.
- Up to 64 Gb of Flash-memory.
- Cryptographic algorithms
- Electronic signature based on elliptic curves ECC160.
- Symmetric AES-128 and GSII64 encryption.
- Hashing based on SHA-256.
- Functionality
- Loading and execution of up to 40,000 lines of code in C.
- Tunnel encryption of the communication protocol traffic.
- Working in driverless full-speed mode.
- Support for Windows, Windows CE, Linux, OS X, Android, OS X and Windows RT.
- Automatic protection of Win32 and .NET applications.
- Tools for protection of Java applications.
- Pseudo-code and obfuscation of protection components.
- Flash memory 16 GB, 32 GB, or 64 GB (instead of 4 Gb given by default).
- General characteristics
- Interface: USB 1.1 and up.
- Dimensions: 58 mm x 16 mm x 8 mm.
- Weight: 7.3 g.
- Driverless mode
- One universal dongle mode for all modern platforms; driverless dongle doesn’t work using HID or any kind of prewritten driver – it functions through USB directly allowing for high speed and extreme user convenience.
- Built-in HDD
- The only dongle to have a full feature flash memory built-in exclusively for loadable code. This memory is configurable through API, can be encrypted via AES256 and has a built-in filesystem accessible only from within the dongle.
- Ultimate protection
- Forget automatic protection and preloaded cryptographic algorithms: with Guardant Code Pro one can implement virtually any protection scheme, regardless of how complicated that is. Up to 40 thousand lines of code (written in C) and a high-performance microprocessor allow for a rather demandful code to be ported.
