License Key Hashing
How your license key is protected during network transmission.
Published May 30, 2026
SHA-256 Hash
When activating or checking a license, the thin client computes SHA-256(license_key) and sends only the hash to the server.
Never Transmit Plaintext
The raw license key is never sent over the network in plaintext form.
Local Storage
The raw key is stored in thin_config.json on your local machine. Protect this file with appropriate filesystem permissions.
