Question

SECURITY - Which is better protection for UXP plugins?

Hello,

I've been writting scripts, CEP extensions and now I'm migrating my plugins to UXP, the thing is that with CEP we had access to .JSXBIN files which helps a lot with the security, now with UXP we only have .JS files that we can secure with obfuscation. I have two questions:

1) What is the best way possible to secure our UXP plugins code?

2) I've been using "obfuscator.io" and JSDEFENDER (https://www.preemptive.com/products/jsdefender/online-javascript-obfuscator-demo/)
Which could work the best?

In the past I used obfuscator.io and either way, I got cracked... So what are yout thoughts about this securiy we can do these days?

I appreciate your time.

Hi @olverart,

 

This is still an open question, but it's asked frequently by UXP developers, I'll send it to the UXP PM.

 

I've removed some of the less relevant topic tags from your post.

 

At the moment, the best place to chat about UXP for Photoshop is here: https://forums.creativeclouddeveloper.com/c/photoshop/63

 

We're considering migrating that forum to this category later this year, but plans are not yet final.
