  • Any way to get more security in an autoplay project?

    Hello everyone, is there a way to increase security in autoplay media studio? I am talking about the project itself since as you know the .cdd is easy to get the code and I would like to try to change it to .dll but the point is how? I've seen other autoplay projects that have their autorun.cdd in dll and that the code is obfuscated or hidden to avoid getting the code. They also say that you can use a packer to increase security, but how? Whoever can answer, I appreciate it

    The short answer; no.

    Everything people have done, as also documented on these forums, can easily be bypassed. We even had a CTF challenge amongst some guru's here to challenge each other, however there is no way of preventing someone who wants to steal your code from stealing your code.

    The code runs on the user's system, so the user can access anything it does. No level of obfuscation or encryption can protect your code.

    The same goes for, as per example, C#/VB .NET compiled binaries; no matter how obfuscated. As well as for programs compiled in C/C++,
    those can also be reversed. It's better to protect your assets with copyright law and licensing rather than trying to prevent access to them.

    Remember: Security by obscurity is no security at all. Merely changing the autorun.cdd to autorun.dll will do nothing for you.
