Software Protection against Piracy and Reverse Engineering using Software Watermarking Technique

Abstract

The rise in use of Internet and byte code languages such as Java byte code and Microsoft’s Common Intermediate language have made copying, decompiling and disassembling software easier with the rapid development of Internet and Software Industry. The issue of software piracy and security is of great concern. Software watermarking is a new technique appeared in recent years for software copyright protection. It embeds some secret information (watermark) into software as an identifier of the ownership of copyright for the software. We are going to implement a software watermarking algorithm that is effective for the copyright protection of java program, especially for java class files.
