RustemSoft proposes Skater .NET Obfuscator, an obfuscation tool for .NET code protection. It implements all known software protection techniques and obfuscation algorithms.
If you would like periodically obfuscate your .NET products the Skater .NET Obfuscator is for you. RustemSoft is using the Skater for internal needs securing all RustemSoft .NET executables and assemblies. Its command-line version running in batch mode is much useful for your scheduled products updates. You have to assign settings for an assembly in GUI version first. Then the batch obfuscate task will use the settings.

Unauthorized access to source code can offer a quick back entrance into your systems, business processes and revenue streams. Global piracy rate has increased 40% over the past years and nearly $11 billion is lost. This is definitely a clear threat for software producers and thus to global economy. With more than half of million developers with some level of access to .NET reengineering tools providing near instant access to source from any .NET binary, organizations across industries are entrusting on obfuscation to managing these risks. Over the years, several software protection techniques have been developed, code obfuscation is one of them and it is very promising.

  Code obfuscation is a form of software protection against unauthorized reverse-engineering.
The chief functions of any software protection technique can be determined as detection of pirate attempts to decipher or tamper software, protection against such attempts and alteration of software to ensure that it functionality degrades in an undetectable manner if the protection fails.

 Just over a year ago we discovered that someone had created a keygen for our Archive Manager software. 2 years of work could have gone up the spout, and the dangers of developing software on the .Net platform (e.g how easy assemblies are to reverse engineer) became very clear.
We looked around at all the different products that were on the market and they were all either far too expensive or really complicated. We just wanted something that we could point at our final compiled versions of our assemblies, hit 'go', and then distribute the protected article.
Skater.Net fitted the bill perfectly, and was the best value for money solution that we found (and we looked at a lot of those on offer!).
So, I would like to thank you for producing what is a great bit of software.
A change of licence keys a year ago, and an extra couple of minutes to scramble the final assemblies before we distribute a new version and the problem of key gens and such has completely gone away.
Good Job :-)

It works great! I love the Visual Studio 2008 integration. I have a lot of constants and strings in my projects. I obfuscated them all then tried to view them using Lutz Roeder's .NET Reflector version 4.2.51.0 and I could not read them at all. It works great and for the price it's a no brainer to use this great product.
This product is more efficient than Microsoft's refactoring power toy, and is very easy to use!

Skater has been a very reliable and easy to use program. It has all of the features I need without the problems of other obfuscators. I've tried others but after obfuscating, my program immediately crashes. Even with minimal obfuscation settings. Trying to get in touch with the the creators of these programs takes days or longer. In between that time, I found Skater and never looked back. Skater has always been able to obfuscate my software with all settings turned on.
RustemSoft stands behind their product as well - giving very good immediate responses, which is rare in general. It's a pleasure doing business with them.
