A user who either: (i) uses one of the Software user interfaces (i.e., via its user interface, IDE plugin, etc.), or (ii) uses the output of the scans (via APIs, ticketing systems, PDF reports, or any other form that does not require direct access to the Software) for the purpose of tracking, resolving, or remediating vulnerabilities detected by the Software, must be provisioned as a Named User.

 

Customer may not: (1) provide access to the Software to any individual who does not hold a valid Named User License; or (2) distribute the output generated by the Software in violation of the Named User restrictions noted above; however the review of report summaries: (a) by Customer management personnel, or (b) for audit purposes, shall not be deemed to consume a Named User license where such users do not access the Software or use the report summaries to remediate vulnerabilities detected by the Software.

 

License Transfer Rights:

 

  1. Customer may transfer Named User licenses when an existing Named User resigns, is terminated or permanently no longer requires access to the Software.

  2. Customer may transfer a Node Locked software license to a different machine a reasonable number of times by: (a) sending a written license transfer request to Licensor; (b) obtaining a new license key (HID) from Licensor, which is required to activate the software on the new machine; and (c) promptly deleting the previously installed software upon transfer of the software to the new machine.
