Class Encrypt / News: Recent posts

New developers have been brought on to help better improve on the idea of encryption protection. As many of the visitors to this site already know, true protection cannot be aquired with this software. Currently, work in improving the exisiting framework by providing the user better design options for code is being researched.

Package access, and an improved interface are only a few of the things that will be available in the update.... read more

I am currently working on version 2.0 of the software. This version will enable the developer to use packages within the application in order to allow for a better design. There are some other interesting changes, but at the moment the package access is the most important.

Well, I told you I wasn't giving up... I just added a new build for the 1.2 version. I obfuscated the code using RetroGuard.

It can be found at http://www.retrologic.com/retroguard-main.html

This build works with the test application used and I tried to hack the program the same way I described before, but this time the class file is different, and the decompiled code looks REAL UGLY. Anyway, this version is safer than the previous version, but it is still breakable (although tougher).

Download the hack.zip file packaged with the 1.2 release. In that zip you will find a file called STEPS. Those are the steps I took to break the test application I packaged with the application.

Reading this file and seeing the steps required for someone to get back the source code can be very important in the security that you feel this software has provided. If you do not require much security, then great, I hope this helps stop the lazy decompilers from getting your code. If you require much better security then what is provided then you should choose another measure for securing your source code.... read more

Class Encrypt is a program that can be used to encrypt your java class files. It also provides professional deployment of your code by packaging all of your classes into a Java ARchive file. The program provides a modular design for using encryption modules, which will allow you to write your own encryption code. This software comes with a default implementation of the Blowfish encryption algorithm written by Bruce Schneier in 1993.... read more

A bug that allowed hackers to access variables after the encrypted program was loaded has been fixed and updated to match the cvs version.

Just want to make sure everyone gets the newest version, so if you are not sure just download the cvs version. the module name is classencrypt. A few hacks have been fixed that allowed the software to be cracked (The new developer on the project is a genius, and broke it).

Ok, I know most people are probably wondering how to get the CVS version since I din't bother to give the module name.

The module is classencrypt

I'm also going to be adding a development version called encrypt-devel

The development tree is going to be used to test new features, and work on improving the design of the app. Anything that works well will be integrated into the regular package.

Instead of the install scripts I wrote. I have added a new build.xml file for use with the program. So if you download from cvs (or the regular files here) then you can simply run ant in the directory with the build.xml file and it will create a new jar file. If you have any problems with this please post them in the help forum so I can take care of it as quickly as possible. the new versions do not contain the install scripts.
