Experiment with Control Code Obfuscation

Control code obfuscation is intended to prevent malicious reverse engineering of software by masking the program control flow. The idea for further advancing the state of the art was presented in 2000 by WANG C. An obfuscating system for Java based on the ideas of WANG C is implemented and experimented. The experiment results show that obfuscation can be done efficiently with moderate increases in code size, execution times, while making the obfuscated code resilient to a variety of reverse engineering attacks.
