Smart Desktop Code Protection
Smart Desktop division of Pi Corporation is an EMC Company protects intellectual property, secures and optimizes applications, and defends against tampering - safely, reliably and efficiently.
The Smart Desktop division of Pi Corporation is an EMC Company based in Seattle, Washington. A pioneer in intelligent information management for the Microsoft Windows desktop. Smart Desktop improves the way you manage information without changing the way you work. Using machine intelligence technology, Smart Desktop increases your productivity by automatically organizing your information by project, so you can find and retrieve it instantly. .NET Assemblies are just too easy to reverse-engineer into usable code. We need to protect our intellectual property.
Preemptive Solutions obfuscates our .NET assemblies to make it that much harder to reverse engineer our assemblies into readable source code.
“The key benefit is removing the capability to easily reverse-engineer .NET assemblies to protect our Intellectual Property.”
Paul Brickel, Product Manager, Pi Corporation
The Situation
Smart Desktop brings a new approach to the problem of information management. Built on patent pending machine intelligence technology, protecting Intellectual Property is a requirement for the Smart Desktop division.
Solution
“Preemptive Solutions allows us to obfuscate our .NET assemblies to make it that much harder to reverse engineer our assemblies into readable source code. “
Benefits
The key benefit is removing the capability to easily reverse-engineer .NET assemblies by those who would steal our Intellectual Property or tamper with our applications. “.NET Assemblies are just too easy to reverse-engineer into usable code. Dotfuscator is reliable and, after the initial investment, we are able to largely forget about Dotfuscator and obfuscation entirely.”
