Local Python Code Protector v1.2-beta.2

Local Python Code Protector v1.2-beta.2

We are excited to announce the first beta release of Local Python Code
Protector!

Note: This is a beta release for testing purposes. While the core
functionality is stable, we welcome feedback and bug reports through our
official channels.

Introduction

The Local Python Code Protector is a command-line tool designed to
provide source code protection and secure code sharing for
Python scripts. It allows developers to obfuscate and encrypt their
Python code, making it significantly more difficult for unauthorized
users to understand or reverse-engineer your scripts.

Whether you're distributing Python scripts to clients, collaborating
with colleagues, or deploying code on servers, the Local Python Code
Protector ensures your intellectual property remains secure.

Key Features

• Code Obfuscation and Encryption: Implements multi-level
  protection with dynamic encryption and code obfuscation techniques.

• Device-Specific Restrictions: Restrict code execution to
  specific devices based on hardware IDs (HWIDs).

• Expiration Date Settings: Set an expiration date after which the
  code will not run.

• Cross-Platform Compatibility: Works on Windows, macOS,
  Linux/Unix, and other operating systems where Python 3.6+ is
  installed.

• No Internet Connection Required: The protected code runs locally
  without needing an internet connection.

How It Works

1. Obfuscate Your Code: Use the command-line tool to obfuscate and
   encrypt your Python scripts. Supports both source files (.py) and
   compiled files (.pyc).

2. Apply Restrictions: Optionally restrict code execution to
   specific devices using HWIDs, set an expiration date, and add custom
   messages.

3. Secure Distribution: Share the protected code with clients or
   colleagues without exposing the original source code.

4. Execute Securely: The protected code runs seamlessly on the
   user's machine, ensuring Python code security and secure code
   sharing without requiring an internet connection.

Recommendations and Best Practices

• Add Multiple Protection Layers: To enhance security, you can
  obfuscate the already protected code again using the script.

• Use Latest Python Versions: If possible, use the latest Python
  versions for which decompilers are not readily available.

• Utilize Virtual Environments: Create virtual environments for
  different Python versions to generate protected versions compatible
  with various Python installations.

• Combine with Cloud Protection: For more robust protection,
  consider using cloud-based solutions like Secure Python Code
  Manager.
