>The link I referred him to had a discussion of all ways protect a system, not just cryptor. Plus, nowhere in his original post did he mention securing credit card data, so I don't know where you got that. Cryptor will work to protect his executable from being dissassembled, which answers his question. Molebox may do a good job also, but to say cryptor won't work is disengenuous.
Hello John:
Are we talking about Cryptor published by Xitech? If so then we're talking about a product designed to encrypt files, text or database, but not encrypt the executable -- Refox and/or Konxise are supposed to do that. As Xitech says about Cryptor on their web site "Easily add file encryption to your application." And, they are right, it is easy and works like a charm. They were going to incorporate Strong Encryption (likely AES Rinjdael) into Cryptor 5.0 but didn't, which killed it for me. I suspect the complexity got out of hand. Their proprietary encryption doesn't change the file size whereas AES does and that introduces all sorts of issues.
John, I know he didn't mention card holder information, which has nothing to do with why I pointed it out.
Anyway, unless I'm totally clueless to some of Cryptor's capabilities . . . it does not encrypt the executable, it encrypts data files. I'm amiable to correction -- which is probably reeealllly disengenous.
