[nexpose-users] NeXpose Activation issue

[brian edwards]

Thanks for the info, I was afraid that would be the case.

Please pass along a request to make offline activation a future
feature. Often times, departments outside of IT who wish to involve security
in their development efforts operate with the requirement that the systems
remain isolated.

Getting exceptions is administratively messy and not getting exceptions
tends to be career limiting. Having an independent activation feature would
open up such isolated lab environments for evaluating NeXpose Community and
Enterprise.

Thanks
