Unreadable class libraries for Java

Well I am a little behind in my reading and since I am slow at work today (work isn't slow, I am slow) I actually had time to have a look at some of my bookmarks and catch up on my reading.

This interesting article on encryption and obfuscation and how they relate to distribution of Java classes pretty much just came up Bruce.

That is, anything you do can be undone by a sufficiently knowledgeable, creative and dedicated individual or group.

It turns out that all you can do is slow people down and make them work for their crack.


Interesting stuff.
