[Flashcoders] Obfuscator encryption tools

2008-06-03 Thread Mick G
I know this has been discussed many times but I'm having troubles finding
any up-to-date information on this topic. It's been a while since I looked
into this subject.

Just after any recommended tools for an Obfuscator for AS2 SWFs.

Hi Jake,

As far as I'm aware, current version of ASV is able to bypass SWF Encrypt
3.0.12.

Since you have already invested in Amayeta, I'd recommend using it. First of
all, not all decompilers can bypass it. Then, when they release an update,
it will be effective for at least 3-4 months against all decompilers.
(Because even if we can bypass it in a short time, we won't. Generally
speaking, writing an obfuscator is easier than writing a decompiler. An
obfuscators all use is obfuscating, a decompiler is useful for other
purposes too. So, also considering other things, for us [ASV], it doesn't
make sense to bypass an obfuscator as soon as possible. But we do bypass
obfuscations, in time).

I normally recommend using a tool like Genable ASO to rename identifiers,
but obviously it will not help in your case.

HTH.

Best regards,

[Flashcoders] Obfuscator

2007-01-19 Thread Jake Prime

Hi all

At this point in time is there any obfuscator that will prevent a SWF
from being decompiled with ASV (or whatever the current best
decompiler is)?

I know this has been asked before and the answer was no, but as both
obfuscators and decompilers are improved over time I was wondering if
the situation had changed. Our current policy here is to put a URL
checker in all our games and then obfuscate the SWF with Amayeta SWF
Encrypt. It's a bit of a pain and if this really is a complete waste
of time I'd rather stop bothering.

Thanks
Jake
