Publisher License Keys

Hello All!  This is a shot in the dark but I'm asking.....Is there a way within FNMS to obtain License Key information for specific publisher?  Reason I'm asking is that we are trying to avoid allowing them to unleash the dreaded "script" to find this information.  I'm desperate here!

 

Thanks

The answer to this is likely "no", or at least "not easily". However it will depend on the particular publisher and software in question: how publishers choose to store license key information, and whether they store it in a form that is discoverable by you, varies widely. Places that software may store keys can range of the registry, files on the filesystem in arbitrary forms, databases, or other places. Keys may be encrypted or otherwise obfuscated.

If the data is discoverable for the particular software you are interested in, gathering it will involve some sort of script or process being developed to look for the specific data on computers and then do something with it.
