Data Encryption and Obfuscation
Encryption
To protect data within applications, developers can use encryption techniques. This process involves encrypting the data, making it inaccessible to unauthorized parties.
Obfuscation
Alternatively, developers can use obfuscation techniques to scramble and alter code, making it difficult to understand or reverse engineer.
Two Types of Obfuscation
* Iterative Code Obfuscation:
* Applies obfuscation techniques multiple times, making it harder to deobfuscate.
* Data Reordering:
* Reorders the sequence of instructions in the original code without changing its behavior.
Obfuscation Considerations
* Name Obfuscation:
* Obscures names of classes, methods, variables, and other code elements, making it more difficult to understand.
* Public Member Obfuscation:
* Generally not recommended for DLL libraries as they are intended to be accessed externally.
* Private and Public Member Obfuscation:
* Scrambles names for better code protection.
* EXE Executables:
* Obfuscating all names, including public members, is recommended as the assemblies are self-contained.
DDxHub is a concentrator that holds a lot of disease descriptions. It relies on the System knowledgebase to diagnose a health condition.
Differential diagnosis Hub is the System distinguishing of a particular disease or health condition from others.
