Protect your source code
-
I thought this was pretty interesting when I was googling for better ways to keep your code from being decompiled and used. The site I ran acrossed was called Assembly Lock Box (http://assemblylockbox.gibwo.com/[^]) and it uses a safer way to protect your code. It's better than obfuscation and easily integrates with applications. I wrote about a trial version to see how it works. But wanted everyone else to check it out as well because everyone's code is at stake. Thanks for the time. have a great day. Steve -- modified at 15:08 Wednesday 1st March, 2006

We can even implement code access security (CAS) to protect Our code Senior Software Engineer Nothing is Impossible Even Impossible says I'MPOSSSIBLE

Isnt CAS just for execution of code though? Certain policies say whether or not the application, or code in a dll, can be ran. So that would still allow the app to be disassembled. What AssemblyLockBox does, from what I read, is keep your code form being disassembled and keep people from seeing your code, even with apps like reflector. To James: If you've never downloaded the application 'Reflector', do so and almost any .Net application can be disassembled and viewed, even if obfuscated using Microsofts tool. Just google for it and it will show up. Thanks for the reply guys. Have a great day. Steve
