Publisher Software That Changes

A keychan is a small piece of software that changes the license key or serial number of a particular piece of proprietary software installed on a computer. Keychan A key changer or keychan is a variation of a keygen. Antivirus software may discover malware embedded in keygens such software often also identifies unauthorized keygens which do not contain a payload as potentially unwanted software, often labelling them with a name such as Win32/Keygen or Win32/Gendows. These key generators may or may not generate a valid key, but the embedded malware loaded invisibly at the same time may, for example, be a version of CryptoLocker ( ransomware). In this case, only a single value encoded within the key has to be changed in order to target a different product.Unauthorized keygens that typically violate software licensing terms are written by programmers who engage in reverse engineering and software cracking, often called crackers, to circumvent copy protection of software or digital rights management for multimedia.Keygens are available for download on warez sites or through peer-to-peer (P2P) networks.Many unauthorized keygens, available through P2P networks or otherwise, contain malicious payloads.
