The Arxan Software Protection Technology Advantages

Durable, Resilient and Dynamic

All of our products are built on, and benefit from, our Guard® technology - the most advanced software protection technology available today.

In addition to traditional static defenses such as obfuscation and encryption, we provide dynamic protection via patented "Guards". Guards are small security modules that are inserted directly into a compiled binary. Each type of Guard protects against a specific threat (such as tampering) or provides a specific defense mechanism (such as self-healing). Guards protect your product and each other, forming a complex multi-layered Guard network that is extremely difficult to defeat. As a result, Arxan protection software not only defends against compromise but also actively detects and reacts to attacks.

The resulting benefit? Best-of-breed IP protection that is durable and resilient, minimally impacts application performance (if at all), and neatly fits into the software development lifecycle.

Best of Breed IP Protection

Obfuscation and encryption are important first layers to protecting software against piracy and reverse engineering. With hacker sophistication today, however, these static measures are no longer sufficient to provide durable, resilient protection for valuable IP. Arxan’s Guard technology includes static measures but takes a quantum leap forward to dynamic protection with small protection units - Guards™- that are inserted into the software’s binary.

Guards not only defend against compromise, but actively detect attempted attacks and react in fully customizable ways. These small units protect not only your program but also each other forming an intricate security web that is deeply embedded into, and therefore inextricable from, the protected application.

Once deployed, Arxan’s Guard protection dissolves into the binary, making it virtually impossible to pirate or tamper with the application. Arxan’s Guard Technology Meets the 7 Key Factors for Successful Software Protection.
