While Dotfuscator Community provides a basic level of protection, upgrading to PreEmptive Protection - Dotfuscator Professional will give you access to enhanced obfuscation transforms and protection capabilities. These include:
-
Intellectual Property Protection
- Additional renaming options, including Enhanced Overload Induction™ and randomized identifier selection.
- Access to enterprise-level obfuscation transforms, including transforms targeted at defeating automated code decompilation.
- The ability to obscure sensitive strings, making a simple search of the decompiled code impossible.
- The ability to discreetly embed ownership and distribution strings into your assemblies (software watermarking), allowing you to determine the source of unauthorized software leaks.
- The ability to combine multiple assemblies into one, making it even more difficult for attackers to determine the roles of code elements, as separation of concerns has been eliminated.
- The ability to automatically remove unused code from your application, reducing the amount of sensitive code that is shipped.
-
Application Integrity Protection
- Additional application defense behaviors.
- The ability to inject anti-tamper and anti-debug code into
.dllassemblies. - The ability to provide a warning period before an application's end-of-life deadline.
- The ability to notify application code during an end-of-life warning period or after the deadline.
