Obfuscate your PHP code
· 6 min read
A few years ago, I sold a software called aeSecure, which was a Web Application Firewall. In order to prevent my proprietary code from being picked up by someone who could then sell it, for example, I had developed an obfuscation script.
Since then, I've released a reusable version of that script: https://github.com/cavo789/php_obfuscator.
And what if, today, with artificial intelligence, this type of code was no longer of any interest? The aim of this article is to see if it's always a good idea to make your code unreadable.
