Early developments in code obfuscation were chiefly motivated by the needs of Digital Rights Management (DRM). Other suggested applications included intellectual property protection of software and code diversification to combat the monoculture problem of operating systems. Code obfuscation is typically employed in security scenarios where an adversary

Quantitative measures for code obfuscation security [PDF]
In this thesis we establish a quantitative framework to measure and study the security of code obfuscation, an effective software protection method that defends software against malicious reverse engineering. Despite the recent positive result by Garg et al.[GGH+13] that shows the possibility of obfuscating using indistinguishability obfuscation ...

Understanding Obfuscated Code [PDF]
Code obfuscation makes it harder for a security analyst to understand the malicious payload of a program. In most cases an analyst needs to study the program at the machine code level, with little or no extra information available, apart from his experience.

Symbolic Execution of Obfuscated Code [PDF]
Symbolic and concolic execution nd important applications in a number of security-related program analyses, including analysis of malicious code. However, malicious code tend to very often be obfuscated, and current concolic analysis techniques have trouble dealing with some of these obfuscations, leading to imprecision and/or excessive resource usage.

Exploiting code mobility for dynamic binary obfuscation [PDF]
Software protection aims at protecting the integrity of software applications deployed on un-trusted hosts and being subject to illegal analysis. Within an un-trusted environment a possibly malicious user has complete access to system resources and tools
