HOW TO CHOOSE
PROTECTION METHOD
SIMPLE MODE
In Simple Mode SWF Protector chooses protection methods by
default for both standard and user code according to Action Script
version.
If a SWF file contains AS2 then "Mask script"
and "Mix script" are applied.
Mask script is an effective method of concealing
the code. It doesn't cause the increasing of the file size.
Mix script is shaking the source code. The method
is very effective, but it causes the increasing of the file size.
That’s why SWF Protector let's you choose the intensity of method
applicability. In Simple Mode for files with AS2 Mix script is
applied in 50 % mode by default.
If a SWF file contains AS3 then Protecting and Obfuscating are
applied.
Protecting modifies AS in such a way that a SWF
file may be played, but it is impossible to decompile it.
Obfuscating renames variables, features etc. in a
definite way. It doesn't prevent from decompilation, but makes the
subsequent compilation impossible.
ADVANCED MODE
Like in Simple Mode, in Advanced Mode the choice of method
depends on AS version the SWF file contains and the same protection
methods are used. The difference is that Advanced Mode permits to
manage settings for all the code blocks of the file, standard and
user. The code is displayed hierarchically and you can choose the
code block and which protection method to apply to it.
Mix script and Mask script are applied if a SWF file contains
AS2.
When you apply Mix script you may choose to use
the method by default (50%) or to choose its intensity using the
slider. The lesser the intensity, the lesser the file size, the
less reliable protection.
NOTE 1: If you set Mix script to minimum, then this protection
method won't work.
NOTE 2: Applying Mix script and Mask script you
may turn off all standard code to decrease the file size. In this
case, the protection will be less reliable.
"Protect" and "Obfuscate"
methods are applied if a SWF file contains AS3.
NOTE 1: You may turn off all standard code to decrease the file
size. In this case, the protection will be less reliable.
NOTE 2: If a SWF file doesn’t contain AS, “Protect” button will
be inactive. However, you still may play this file.
