ABSTRACT:
A method for defending a software against reverse engineering in a target environment includes acquiring information from the target environment, encrypting the software to be protected with the acquired information, sending the encrypted software with the acquired information to an execution environment, acquiring information from the execution environment, comparing the information from the execution environment with the acquired information from the target environment to authenticate the execution environment as the target environment, and if the two set of information match, decrypting the software to be protected, and if two set of information do not match, destroying said software.
