Does proguard offer a solution to analyze it’s performance on obfuscating an app?
Question goes for other obfuscator/deobfuscators also such as Obfuscapk and Deguard respectively
If not, what tools do you use to measure obfuscation/deobfuscation
I am aware that Proguard allows analyzing the jars structure before and after obfuscation
Hi @foobar,
Welcome to the Guardsquare Community!
Proguard is a shrinker and optimizer that includes a name obfuscation feature intended to further reduce the size of an application. Name obfuscation provides a very minimal level of protection, and other security features are required for adequate coverage.
With any changes to an application, whether it be optimizing or obfuscation or adding features and functionality the onus is on benchmarking the entire application before and after the changes. Profilers can be used to augment such an effort.
I hope this helps, and have a great weekend!
