Digital rights management ( DRM) is the management of legal access to digital content. Various tools or technological protection measures (TPM), [1] such as access control technologies, can restrict the use of proprietary hardware and copyrighted works. [2] DRM technologies govern the use, modification and distribution of copyrighted works (e.g ...
A product key, also known as a software key, serial key or activation key, is a specific software-based key for a computer program. It certifies that the copy of the program is original. Product keys consist of a series of numbers and/or letters. This sequence is typically entered by the user during the installation of computer software, and is ...

Software configuration management ( SCM ), a.k.a. software change and configuration management ( SCCM ), [1] is the software engineering practice of tracking and controlling changes to a software system; part of the larger cross-disciplinary field of configuration management (CM). [2] SCM includes version control and the establishment of ...
Software development. In software engineering, CI/CD or CICD is the combined practices of continuous integration (CI) and continuous delivery (CD) or, less often, continuous deployment. [1] They are sometimes referred to collectively as continuous development or continuous software development. [2]
Software engineering is an engineering approach to software development. [1] [2] [3] A practitioner, called a software engineer, applies the engineering design process to develop software. The terms programmer and coder overlap software engineer, but they imply only the construction aspect of typical software engineer workload.
