By the way, Thomas. Why use “Flash Secure Optimizer” by eramsoft if there available FREE solutions from DComSoft software?

We use secureSWF Professional for all our projects. It is the only one that really works and is easy to use. We’ve tried all the other software (SWF Protector & SWF Encrypt) before and it didn’t do the job and was easily defeated by decompilers.

Currently there are 3 main competitors of such software available on the market. And they are:
- SWF Protector by DComSoft;
- secureSWF by Kindisoft;
- SWF Encrypt from Amayeta;

I am using DComSoft and it fits all my requirements. I do tested them all and from my opinion SWF Protector is the best choice because it reliable and user-friendly.

secureSWF is pretty nice too, but it is very complicated and expensive.

As for the SWF Encrypt, It is more expensive then others, and I even don`t know why It provides the same functionality as others.

@Spruten : if SWF size is important for you, you can use “Flash Secure Optimizer” by eramsoft, it has more options to reduce SWF size.

For people using flex, I can recommend ‘irrfuscator’, not sure why noone mentioned it yet. Simply rewrites your source files, meaning you are able to actually even debug your actionscript code afterwards. But I’ll also try the sothink software you mentioned, didn’t try the latest version yet.

(Would you be able to combine this comment with my last?) In regards to, “There’s also a few optimization features that will increase the speed and filesize of your game,” do you really mean increase the filesize? With all the junk the obfuscation seems to add, this seem plausible, but you stated it as if it were good to increase the filesize. I’m unsure of what you really meant. Thank you.

Does secureSWF add to the size of the SWF or “de-optimize” the code? Looking at the “after” portion of the before/after secureSWF, it appears it would.

I looked at the price/features comparison chart, and to get all the options you described, you pay $400… or find a cracked version, I suppose. Still, I may look into using the demo for one of my later projects.

Greetings to all,

anybody know what kind of encryption is in use in this secureSWF?

Which algorithm, AES, RSA or …?

Regards,

Ruah.
