Researchers say their new software obfuscation scheme is the first time this technique has been successfully accomplished where the underlying piece of software, such as a patch, could not be reverse ...

The ease at which criminals can reverse engineer software makes for lucrative transgressions with national security implications, prompting government-backed researchers to seek innovations to shore ...

Researchers with a DARPA-led team are looking into new ways to combat reverse engineering by using obfuscation to tidy up shoddy commercial and government security. Researchers with a DARPA-led team ...

Abstract: Obfuscation is a prevalent security technique which transforms syntactic representation of a program to a complicated form, but still keeps program semantics unchanged. So far, developers ...

Abstract: The rise of automated obfuscation techniques challenges the wide-spread assumption that evading a software plagiarism detector requires more effort than completing programming and modeling ...

If you’re in the business of creating original software and hope to preserve its integrity against reverse-engineering hacks or if you’re Microsoft worried about hackers cracking the code behind a ...

Nope, however the general premise that obfuscation of code makes your software 'more secure' is bunk. If someone has a copy of your software and wants to hack it, they will. obfuscated or not.

A research that analyzed over 10,000 samples of diverse malicious software written in JavaScript concluded that roughly 26% of it is obfuscated to evade detection and analysis. Obfuscation is when ...
