Code obfuscation against symbolic execution attacks

Proceedings of the 32nd Annual Conference on Computer Security Applications, 2016
Code obfuscation is widely used by software developers to protect intellectual property, and malware writers to hamper program analysis. However, there seems to be little work on systematic evaluations of effectiveness of obfuscation techniques against automated program analysis.

C Source code Obfuscation using Hash Function and Encryption Algorithm

IJCCS (Indonesian Journal of Computing and Cybernetics Systems), 2023
Obfuscation is a technique for transforming program code into a different form that is more difficult to understand. Several obfuscation methods are used to obfuscate source code, including dead code insertion, code transposition, and string encryption ...

Towards experimental evaluation of code obfuscation techniques [PDF]

Proceedings of the 4th ACM workshop on Quality of protection, 2008
While many obfuscation schemes proposed, none of them satisfy any strong definition of obfuscation. Furthermore secure general-purpose obfuscation algorithms have been proven to be impossible. Nevertheless, obfuscation schemes which in practice slow down malicious reverse-engineering by obstructing code comprehension for even short periods of time are ...
