Hey David, >% We sell our software with 2 keys, one key looks something like this "oÜ??X? >% " >% (this changes according to the password you set when you are encoding)
>Right. >% and the other key is just a normal php script (encoded of course) >You mean obfuscated and garbled? OK, but I don't see how the thing will >run, then, any more than my garbled scripts! My momma always told me 2 wrongs don't make a right, I think otherwise :-) what I'm trying to say is, since both are garbled they understand the garble language and sort things out >% Works with everything including variable variables($$someThing) >That's quite cool. So I sent you index.php and you sent me back garbage >and I'm supposed to be able to drop this in place along with a key file >and have it work... Your garbled scripts "talk" to the key garbled script (key file) and they ungarble themselves during runtime for php to understand them. > But how can that garbage possibly be used in its >encrypted form?? That's the whole idea why this is useful and we are trying to sell it. It makes the casual programmer/client or snoop not bother with trying to read/steal/poke your code. >% We have also worked out a way of double encryption, so even if someone >% breaks thru the first layer they will come up against another layer or >% extremly hard to read stuff. >This of course begs the question of why you aren't using that as your >standard for the first layer :-) [Perhaps because of execution time or >perhaps because of the extra revenue or whatever, but it still begs!] Very good question, the answer is pretty simple actually, we couldn't "mesh" this into one, we just aren't clever enough to do it :-) and had too many problems when we tried. We prefer the 2 step idea, so we have created another online tool based on an open source technology that you use to do your first layer of encryption then use codesecure for your second. When you buy codeSecure you automatically get a *free* membership to the online tool. I'm attaching a screenshot of codeSecure so you can have a look at the simple interface and it should clear a few doubts.
