Does anybody know software protection systems for Cocoa apps and

You're best off making your own. The only one I know of that's out there is AquaticPrime, and it's trivial to crack globally.


Maybe this is true if you use Aquatic Prime "off the shelf", but that's because it does not actually implement any anti-crack protection. Aquatic Prime is designed as a defence against key generators, which is does extremely well. You still have to implement the crack protection yourself, which would almost certainly involve modifying the stock code supplied with the AP framework.

Anyway, this is heading off-topic. To the OP, there are a few other commercial systems, such as LicenserKit by Stone Design:

and the Esellerate licensing/activation/payment system:
