Yikes! Decompile is hardly a security issue. We obfuscate Java all the time to prevent the random prying eye, but C and all other languages are just as easily hacked. You can not hide references to libraries and such in either language. There is no such thing as code security, just obscurity. Daniel Brookshier office 972-422-5261 cell 214-207-6614

That's ridiculous. Strong crypto is strong crypto no matter what
implementation language you use. The same applies for good protocol
design--the quality of the design matters far, far more than the
language it is implemented in.

Any time spent reading about the fundamental algorithms, technologies
and standards will be time well spent. It will be generally applicable
no matter what type of application you are building or environment you
are building it for.
Whenever I need a refresher on any topic I usually start here:
http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~pgut001/tutorial/index.html
or
http://ospkibook.sourceforge.net/docs/OSPKI-2.4.7/OSPKI-html/ospki-book.htm
and then branch off into google searches from there. Some of the
specific topics are very dated e.g. "Skipjack" but the issues always
remain relevant.
