Default (ANNOUNCE) codeSECURE 1.0 released - - Protecting PHP code



Greetings everyone,
We have just launched a new product called codeSECURE and would like you to
check it out.

codeSECURE is a PHP obfuscator.

Basically codeSecure is a small collection of scripts to "obfuscate" or
"garble up" php code so that PHP developers can protect their intellectual
property, distribute "locked" php scripts, time expiring scripts etc.

While making it nearly impossible for a human to understand or read your
code/scripts, they will cause no problem for the computer to decipher and
run.

E.g.

$a="Hello world";

will become something like

$23sfaAST3s="v4Mwuz24fz{(2{w";


For details, check us out at http://www.secureCents.com


If you have any questions...fire away, I and my partner will try our best
to answer all questions/suggestions/criticisms etc.

Regards,
JB.

You announced this already on Wednesday. So re-announcing the same
version seems kinda redundant.

Cheers,
Rob.

oops sorry.
We had a small problem, we sent this to most of the php lists like
SMART,announce etc and we made the mistake of BCCing it there, php.net sent
it back to us as BCCing is not allowed to the list/s
so we were unsure if we posted it here.

Our apologies to everyone.

Hi,
Nope sorry, we dont have an "actual example" anywhere but we can do better
than that,
send me any file, however big and i'll encode it and send it back to you.

Remember: It does not matter if you have HTML,XML or greek in your php
file...

Cheers,
-JB.

Hey David,


Thanks, we aim to please :-) this offer is open to _anybody_ on the list,
but please send us one file at at time to "example encode" and not more.


I got a basic authentication box pop up at me...!!??

I've obvuscated them and attached them with this mail, but dont overwrite
your present files because I have not included the "key" file to open them.
If you run them now you would get garbage output...if any.

I'll take this opportunity to throw my sales pitch at you :-D as this is a
perfect example of our little program,
right now in its present encrypted form its totally useless to you...
exactly like if a customer bought software from you, after you confirm
payment... you could then email the key file and BANG! everything works!


Cheers,
-JB

back to you.

Hey again David,

% >Hey, that's a nice offer.
% Thanks, we aim to please :-) this offer is open to _anybody_ on the list,
% but please send us one file at time to "example encode" and not more.

Not a problem, I really didn't mind but was just safeguarding myself from
extra work...:-) like if someone sent me 200 files :-D
I wouldn't be able to refuse as I didn't specify the number before....


Thanks, will cc this to the list.


% I've obvuscated them and attached them with this mail, but dont overwrite
% your present files because I have not included the "key" file to open
them.
% If you run them now you would get garbage output...if any.


We sell our software with 2 keys, one key looks something like this "o??X?
"
(this changes according to the password you set when you are encoding)
and the other key is just a normal php script (encoded of course)
To make your scripts work all you gotto do is add these two files to the
rest of your files
No making any code changes,
no settings changes etc.
Works with everything including variable variables($$someThing)

Just upload the key file/s with the other files.

Its pretty simple, if you want to set a password for your files or want them
to expire after a certain number of days/months/years then you generate your
..key file, if not you have to just add 1 file codeSecure.php and it will be
safe to distribute in a encrypted state.

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.

Cheers,
-JB

Okey dokey.

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!


% To make your scripts work all you gotto do is add these two files to the
% rest of your files

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... But how can that garbage possibly be used in its
encrypted form??


%
...
% We have also worked out a way of double encryption, so even if someone

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!]

TIA & HAND

Hey David,


"o??X?

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

Your garbled scripts "talk" to the key garbled script (key file) and they
ungarble themselves during runtime
for php to understand them.

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.

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.

Cheers,
-JB
