Multimedia Protector supports a protection of .EXE files.
You can start EXE files from flash applications or secure standalone EXE files.
It is possible to protect standalone exe files (wrap an application) and also exe files, that need additional files like configuration files or dll - see chapter Secure standalone exe file(s).
How does it work?
• | The exe file is imported into the encrypted database and not visible. It is completely protected |
• | When the exe file is invoked, it is extracted to the hard disk to a hidden place and started |
The security of exe files is different compared with swf files. Swf files are loaded directly into the memory and are never visible on a disk. The exe file has to be saved temporarily on a folder.
If Source Code is available, the protection can be improved significantly by defining a password, which is required to start the EXE file.
