Software Protection Solution
Software piracy goes beyond illegal copy and unauthorized use. Tampering with software applications remains another serious threat. With reverse engineering tools available today, crackers or even business competitors can trace through binary code in search of exploitable opportunities. Some of the examples are:
Stealing the code or algorithm that is essentially your intellectual property.
Attacking the license enforcement system with an attempt to pirate the software.
Inserting malicious code for many different illegitimate purposes.
Even freeware can be harmed by software tampering when it is illegally modified and redistributed. So, before distributing your software, you must ensure that your intellectual property is protected; the application is secured and can defend itself against any possible attacks.
Software Protection Solutions:
Our software security solution includes code protection that can help to protect your software against tampering and reverse engineering. While there is no technology available today that can absolutely guarantee security for software applications, the goal of code protection is to make tampering and reverse engineering extremely difficult, complex, and time consuming to deter any attempts.
Shell Protection
Application protection mechanism is based on the "envelope" principle, in which the application is put. The application is packed , i.e. all application sections (code, data, import tables, resources) are processed and then the protection code is appended to the end of the file. First, protection code gains control and checks the application integrity, debugger presence, the registration key, processes trial version limitations, then decrypts and unpacks the application data, initializes the application data needed (processes the import functions and relocation tables) and passes the control to the application. The best part is there is no need to modify or add any source code. The easy-to-use interface of zprotect can easily guide you through the settings to create the protected version of your application within minutes.
VM Protection
Zprotect has a powerful VM engine that can put some parts of protected code executed on the Virtual Machine, making it really hard to analyze and crack. The VM engine is like a virtual processor, whose instructions are completely different from the existing x86 processor. The native machine code will be converted into functionally equivalent bytecode that is interpreted by VM engine during runtime.
Code Encryption
When the shell protection is deployed, the whole native executable or managed assembly is encrypted to safeguard against decompilation and disassembly. To thwart access to the code, the shell protection only decrypts the needed code just before the run time in memory. After the execution, the code is immediately returned to its encrypted state.
Code Obfuscation and Confusion
The main advantage of code obfuscation is that it processes every instruction of your application. Two different engines are used for that purpose: the first one processes all the known entry points and the second one in its turn uses heuristic algorithms to search for the executed code. After that an executing graph is constructed on the basis of the data received and mutation process is performed that is divided into three basic components. First, instructions are adjusted and junk code is added.
Anti-Debugging and Anti-Tracing
The shell protection transparently and continuously monitors the run time to detect if the executable runs under a control of a debugger. When such an event is detected, the shell protection immediately halts the operation of the executable. In addition, the shell protection itself is designed with complicated and confused logics to protect against debugging and tracing.
Code Mutation
Our code mutation engine is based on a quantum mechanical model. We are the first to combine sophisticated physical theory with modern software protection technologies in the world, this is used to generate completely random instructions, making the protected file absolutely different from each other, and deters generic unpackers and scripts in theory.
Anti-Tampering
The shell protection always performs integrity check when calling a function of the protected executable to protect against tampering, modification, and virus infection. If the checksum of the executable is different from the originally computed one, the shell protection immediately halts the operation of the executable.
