HOW TO CHOOSE
PROTECTION METHOD
SIMPLE MODE
In Simple mode SWF Protector chooses protection methods automatically for both standard and user codes according to the Action Script
version.
 If a SWF file contains AS2 then "Mask script"
and "Mix script" methods 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 lets you choose the intensity of method
applying. In Simple mode for files with AS2 Mix script is
applied in 50 % mode by default.
If a SWF file contains AS3 then "Protect" and "Obfuscate" methods are
applied:
"Protect" method modifies AS in such a way that a SWF
file can be played, but it is impossible to decompile it.
"Obfuscate" method 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 protection method
depends on AS version the SWF file contains. The difference is that Advanced mode permits to
customize settings for all blocks of the code - standard and
user. The code is displayed hierarchically, and you can choose the
code block and decide 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 can choose to use
the method by default (50%) or to choose its intensity using the
slider. The lesser the method intensity, the
less reliable protection is applied, but you get the file of a smaller size.
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
can turn off all standard code to decrease the file size. In this
case, the protection will be less reliable.
"Obfuscate" and "Protect" methods are applied if a SWF file contains AS3.
You can turn off all standard code to decrease the file
size. In this case, the protection will be less reliable.
NOTE: If a SWF file doesn't contain AS, "Protect" button will
be inactive. However, you still can play this file. |
