While it is generally believed that complete protection of client code is an unattainable goal [7] recent results (by ourselves and others) have shown that some degree of protection can be achieved.

....resources the host can expend on analyzing the client code. While it is generally believed that complete protection of client code is an unattainable goal, recent results (by ourselves and others) have shown that some degree of protection can be achieved. Recently, software watermarking [12, 16, 21, 36], tamper proofing [4, 5, 23, 45] and obfuscation [10, 13 15] have emerged as alternatives to other forms of intellectual property protection of software. Obfuscation attempts to transform a program into an equivalent one that is harder to reverse engineer. Tamper proofing causes a program to ....

....we construct an informal taxonomy of software watermarking techniques. In the second part we formalize these results. Finally, we propose a new software watermarking technique in which a dynamic graphic watermark is stored in the execution state of a program. 1 Introduction Apart from Grover [16] and a few recent US patents [10,21, 28,33] very little (publicly available) information seems to exist on software watermarking in which a copyright notice or customer identification number is embedded into a program. This is in contrast to media watermarking which is a very active area of ....

How can we detect and prevent this from happening Security issues around mobile agents are significant and very challenging to deal with. We need to consider ....
