inVINCEable Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Hey guys, So i just completed a script I want to sell, but I don't want the activation part able to be viewed to prevent pirated copies of my script floating around. Anyways, I have decided I need to purchse something like ioncube, but the problem is with that, doesn't my client then have to install ioncube on their server? I want something easy that will not change a thing (.i.e they just install the script as normal). Any tips ? I know it isn't possible to create something 100% foolproof, I just want something that will slow most of the bad guys out there. Thanks!

phil88 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I don't think there's much you can do without installing a server extension to run the encoded source because PHP is an interpreted language - so the source code has to be visible to the server it's running on. You could maybe do some kind of code obfuscation - but that's only going to discourage the mildly curious. It's by no means secure. If someone wants to crack your system, they'll do it.
