Windows Java Application Code Obfuscation Recommendations

Ask a Question
1

I understand that proguard provides some level of code obfuscation for Java applications running on Windows but my understanding is that its limited and can still be reversed engineered relatively easily.

Does anyone here have recommendations on other options out there (free or paid) for obfuscating Java code built for Windows? I understand that any obfuscated code can still be reversed engineered just looking for the best in industry recommendations, which might be ProGuard after all.

If we were targeting mobile I understand DexGuard would be the path forward but were currently targeting Windows.

Hi @atutisam,

Unfortunately, between DexGuard and ProGuard our Guardsquare solutions are solely focused on mobile environments. I, personally, don’t have an advised desktop provider that I feel comfortable recommending but I hope someone here may be able to help you.

I hope you have a great rest of your week!
