Abstract
The invention concerns a method for protecting, from a unit, a vulnerable software against its unauthorised use, said vulnerable software operating on a data processing system. The method consists in defining: at least one executing characteristic of the software, capable of being monitored at least partly in a unit; at least one criterion to be observed for at least one executing characteristic of the software; detection means to be implemented in a unit and enabling to detect whether at least one software executing J characteristic does not observe at least one associated criterion; and coercion means to be implemented in a unit for informing the data processing system and/or modifying the execution of a software when at least one criterion is not observed.
