The high-quality performance, low cost and open-source nature of Linux has made it a mainstream platform for desktop and server based applications as well as software within embedded devices. As Linux gains in popularity, hackers are increasingly exploiting weaknesses in Linux applications to invade end user systems. To protect Linux applications against tampering, piracy, reverse engineering and malware insertion, Arxan’s GuardIT for Linux hardens software applications across Linux™ desktop, server and embedded platforms. For instance, GuardIT provides application hardening and anti-tamper measures to prevent theft, malware insertions and mitigate the risk of exploitable vulnerabilities in Linux applications.
