Registration and Activation

After a license is purchased, updates to product components and virus databases can be regularly downloaded from Doctor Web update servers. Moreover, standard technical support provided by Doctor Web and its partners becomes available.

You can purchase any Dr.Web product as well as obtain a product serial number either from our partners

or our online store

. For details on license options, visit the official website

of the Doctor Web company.

License registration is required to prove that you are a legal user of Dr.Web Industrial for Linux and activate its anti-virus functions, including regular updates of virus databases. We recommend that you register the product and activate the license once the installation is completed.

To activate or renew the license, you need to enter the serial number. The serial number is supplied with Dr.Web Industrial for Linux or via email when purchasing or renewing the license online.

If you have several licenses for using Dr.Web Industrial for Linux on several computers, but choose to use Dr.Web Industrial for Linux only on one computer, you can specify this and, hence, all licenses will be combined and the license validity period will be automatically extended.

The Registration Wizard of License Manager opens upon the first Dr.Web Industrial for Linux startup (usually the Registration Wizard starts once the installation is complete). You can start registration from the License Manager window at any time by clicking Get new license on the page with information on the current license.

To activate a license using the serial number or request a demo license, a valid internet connection is required.

When a demo period or license is activated via License Manager, the key file (license or demo) is automatically generated on the local computer in its target directory. If you register on the website, the key file will be sent to you by email and you will need to install it manually.

If you have a key file corresponding to a valid license for the product (for example, you have obtained the key file from a vendor by email after registration or Dr.Web Industrial for Linux is being migrated to another computer), you can activate Dr.Web Industrial for Linux by specifying a path to the key file. You can do that as follows:

•In the License Manager by clicking Other activation types on the first step of the registration procedure and specifying a path to the key file or to the .zip archive with the key.

If the internet service provider or network administrator submits a file with settings for connecting to the centralized protection server, you can activate Dr.Web Industrial for Linux by specifying the file path. This can be done as follows:

•In the open program settings window, go to the Mode tab and select the Enable centralized protection mode check box. On the drop-down list, select the Load from file item, specify the path to the connection settings file and click Connect.

If a key file is lost but the license is not expired, you must register again by providing the personal data you specified during the first registration. You can use a different email address. In this case, the license key file will be sent at the new address.

A license key file can be obtained using the License Manager or the license management command a limited number of times. If that amount has been exceeded, you can confirm the registration of your serial number on the website

of the Doctor Web company to receive the key file. The key file is sent to the email that was specified during the first registration.
