Why protect your .NET applications with Shield?

Unlike typical .NET obfuscators, ByteHide Shield offers state-of-the-art protection, adapted to today's problems.
You will never be worried about reverse engineering again.

Keep your intellectual property safe

Keep the algorithms and data in your .NET and .NET Core applications (that are important to your business) secure and hidden. Therefore, preventing crackers or competitors from analyzing, decompiling and stealing them.

Unrestricted user licensing and world-class support

ByteHide Shield has an unrestricted user license model designed to meet a wide range of needs. You are not limited by a number of licenses per user. At the same time, you have exceptional support that will always be on hand to help you, ensuring that any problems or questions you may have are resolved quickly and efficiently.

Prevent your applications from cracking

C# is a programming language that is easy to decode or decompile. In client-side .NET applications, it is very easy to manipulate security checks, illegally access payment functions, bypass logins or licenses, or manipulate logic (cheating). This affects the experience of your legitimate users and gives your project a bad image.

Protect your apps with an easy-to-use solution

ByteHide Shield offers a user-friendly experience, requiring no source code modification or advanced cybersecurity knowledge to safeguard your .NET applications. Simply integrate our solution seamlessly and focus on your business, knowing your intellectual property is secure.

Not just a simple .NET obfuscation

Many .NET obfuscation methods have become obsolete and are easily decompiled with deobfuscators or unpackers like De4dot or DnSpy. Our dotnet next-generation obfuscator offers everything you need not only to be protected now, but also in the future.

Powerful code optimization

With obfuscation algorithms, Shield replaces slow code with faster patterns, improves performance and method access, and removes metadata that allows attackers and reverse engineering experts to analyze and decompile the application causing severe performance problems. This process can significant reduce app size.

Military-grade code obfuscation

Implementing our .NET obfuscator offers you enterprise-grade security and .NET code protection that blends different layers of polymorphic and genuine protections that combine with each other to isolate all points of your applications, as a result, encrypted symbols cannot be cracked. It flexes security to achieve the perfect balance that allows you to deploy your apps without worrying about decompiling DLLs or dependencies.

Ensures integrity

Protecting your application against modifications is very important: if someone tries to fast decompile (with ILSpy or DnSpy) and the code is manipulated, integrity protections will block the execution preventing unauthorized debugging and reverse engineering. Integrity checks are included in the protections, which makes them undetectable.

Industrial Grade code shielding

Preventing unwanted tampering is crucial for your applications. By applying integrity checks and preventing decompilation, our .NET and C# obfuscator protects your application, DLLs and dependencies against decompilation for the lifetime of your application.

Environment protection of your .NET applications

Protecting your application is not enough. If both your environment and the libraries, packages and tools you need are easily manipulated, it will create a security breach that directly affects your application. Shield guarantees the integrity of dependencies and protects your source code against decompilation or reverse engineering.

Shield operation

Shield processes your compiled application, allowing it to be integrated from anywhere and without requiring tools. It then analyzes, transforms, protects and re-compiles the application creating an accurately functioning but completely secure application.

Business impact of code security automation with Shield

With Shield, the security and integrity of your code can be automated. Security settings and techniques are inherited between versions of your application ensuring that your software is always protected.

Reduced risk

Improve the security of your software, eliminate vulnerabilities in your C# code such as SQL injection and ensure that the security of your applications is indestructible in all versions.

Increased productivity

Reduces time spent protecting your applications. Integrates, manages and automates .NET obfuscation so you don't have to rely on tools and configurations.

Reduced cost

Reduces infrastructure costs associated with code protection, human costs for configuration and management and costs associated with cybersecurity breaches that can save up to 95%.

Protect your first application

Protecting your first application is free and takes less than 3 minutes.
