How to create own dotnet obfuscator

问题:

I know that dot net dlls and exe contain their assemblies with them so every body can extract code from it. So please tell me how can i create my own .net obfuscator and if there exist any other way to protect my application to deassemble. and plez dont give me link of any paid obfuscator. i would prefer code sample in c# or vb.net

If you want to understand some of the technical details of obfuscation I'd recommend reading the series of blog posts by Paul Mason. The series is called "Protecting your precious code" and you can find it here.

It's linked with a project called NCloak, this is open so you can download the source and take a look yourself if you want.

But I have to agree with others, this isn't easy and so you are probably better off buying a commercial product. As Paul says in several of his articles there are ways round most techniques, it's just a case of how much time someone wants to spend doing it.

But if you want to learn for you own education, then go-ahead.

There are several free ones available -- http://www.csharp411.com/net-obfuscators/ is one list.

Are you looking for something specific that available non-paid ones don't do?

回答3:

It's not cheap or easy to write a obfuscator.

If you are paid to develop code, I would seriously consider buying one.

That aside, there is nothing you can do to stop a determined person from access your IP, if you ship it in .exe form. All you can do is slow down a casual developer.

I recommend BitHelmet obfuscator. for the price, I think it is the best one.

回答5:

Obfuscation isn't about stopping people extracting the IL from your compiled units - if the runtime can find it, so can anyone who really wants to look at it.

Instead, obfuscation is about making it difficult for people to use that knowledge - for example, making it difficult to decompile the IL into readable source code.

We must have to use obfuscator and if we are releasing commercial product then it more required. It protects us from unauthorized decompilation and reverse engineering of software. You can use various free as well paid obfuscators. Also for full proof protection you need to use copy protection to prevent unauthorised destrubution.

You can check free obfuscator. This is which I am using to protect my applications.
