Limit read access to a minimal set of privileged accounts. | | Audit trail | Enable the application’s logging of license‑related events (activation, de‑activation, failed validation) and forward logs to your SIEM. | | Vendor agreement | Keep a copy of the End‑User License Agreement (EULA) on file; review it annually for any changes to the licensing terms. | | Software updates | Verify that upgrades (e.g., moving from 2.4.12 to 2.5.x) do not invalidate the existing key; if they do, plan for a key re‑issue before the upgrade. |
