encrypt or obfuscate PERL scripts

David DiBiase — Tue, 11 Oct 2005 07:22:41 GMT

I need to deliver a set of scripts for our system in the hurricane area. PERL is the fastest way to do this but I don't want to deliver the actual PERL code. Does anyone have any info on encrypting or obfuscating PERL on 11.11

Many ways to do it.

crypt and decode at the other end.

Use perl crypt module.

Hi,

there is a product, which puts all your perl-stuff into an executable. Our company bought a license, but we did not use it already (planned Q1/06).

Perl2Exe Enterprise Version;
costs: $449 US per copy
