| Term | Obfuscate | |
| Definition | Programming languages which—when compiled into Intermediate Language (IL)—create managed code for execution under the .NET Common Language Runtime (CLR). .NET languages include Visual Basic .NET, Visual C# .NET, and Visual C++ .NET. Consult a complete list of NET Languages.
To prevent an IL file from being decompiledback into a .NET language, an application called an obfuscator can be used to obfuscate—scramble and otherwise make the file unreadable—to make decompilation difficult. | |
