Protection
Settings
The Protection Settings page allows you to enable a various of
protection options.
- Obfuscation - IntelliLock provides thorough
class, type, and variable obfuscation. Obfuscation is the process
of making your source code more difficult (but not impossible) for
humans to understand. Obfuscation works by replacing the meaningful
names you assign to classes, methods, properties and variables with
meaningless ones. For example, it may replace a variable name of
"counter" with "A4DF3CV89G" - to humans these obfuscated names are
confusing and difficult to remember, but have no effect on the .NET
Framework interpreter.
- Use Unprintable Characters - Uses unprintable strings to
obfuscate type and member names, but cannot be used if your
assembly must run as safe code.
- Generate Short Strings - Enable this option to generate short
strings for your obfuscated class and member names. This can reduce
the file size.
- Incremental Obfuscation - If you want IntelliLock always to
generate the same obfuscation strings for type and member names,
you need to enable this option.
- Create Mapping File - Creates a file which cross reference
unobfuscated names with obfuscated ones, which is used
by the Stack Trace Deobfuscator.
- Exclusions - If you want to prevent specific kind of types or
members from obfuscation, you can enable the corresponding option
here. Please note, IntelliLock offer declarative obfuscation as
well.
- Inclusions - If you want to obfuscate obfuscate all types or
members (including public one), you need to enable to corresponding
option here.
- String Encryption - Disguises internalized text.
This encryption makes it much more difficult for a hacker to
attempt a code patch of your assembly, as he will be unable to
identify the text of messages or other useful strings, making
it much more difficult to identify where to patch your
code.
- Code Patch Protection - Enable this option to
prevent your source code from being tampered by hacker tools.
- Suppress ILDASM - Enable this option to suppress
disassembly to IL using the ILDASM.exe tool.
- Strong Name Removal Protection - This option
prevents your protected assembly from being tampered by hacker
tools.
- Encrypt IL Code - Enable this option to encrypt
the source code of your methods. At runtime the source code will be
decrypted in memory.
- Inject Invalid Metadata - Injects invalid
metadata. Most tools are unable to read assemblies with invalid
metadata. Of course, your assembly remains full functional to the
.NET runtime.
- Control Flow Obfuscation - Mangles program flow,
making it extremely difficult for human eyes to follow the program
logic. Level 9 represents strongest control flow obfuscation.
