V.i. Labs Receives Windows Qualification Certification for Components of CodeArmor Technology
Certification Allows Transparent Protection of Applications Developed using Microsoft .NET Framework
Waltham, MA - March 14, 2007 -V.i. Laboratories, Inc. (“V.i. Labs”), a provider
of software protection solutions for securing high-value and mission critical applications,
announced today its has obtained Microsoft’s Windows Qualification certification
for secure container technology used within its CodeArmor for .NET solution. This
certification enables CodeArmor for .NET to operate transparently while protecting
customer’s software applications from being decompiled and reverse engineered.
V.i. Labs secure container technology had to pass a number of rigorious qualification tests on Windows 2000,
2003, and Vista 32-bit and 64-bit platforms to achieve this level of certification.
The certified secure virtual storage technology allows the application run-time
component of CodeArmor to create a secure virtual area and continually protect and
control access to sensitive .NET software as the application executes. V.i. Lab’s
implemented this technology to be completely interoperable with Microsoft’s .NET
Framework.
“Unlike native Windows applications, .NET applications are deployed in a form that
makes them extremely susceptible to being decompiled into source code and reverse
engineered.” said Victor DeMarines, VP of Products at V.i. Labs. “Encrypting code
alone would offer little defense against reverse engineering within a .NET environment.
We created a protection approach that allows our advanced encryption and active
run-time countermeasures to be effective within a .NET environment.”
The Microsoft certified technology is immediately available in CodeArmor for Microsoft
.NET product.
