Encrypting password in compiled C or C++ code
- by Daniel
Hello!,
I know how to compile C and C++ Source files using GCC and CC in the terminal, however i would like to know if its safe to include passwords in these files, once compiled.
For example.. i check user input for a certain password e.g 123, but it appears compiled C/C++ programs is possible to be decompiled.
Is there anyway to compile a C/C++ source file, while keeping the source completely hidden..
If not, could anyone provide a small example of encrypting the input, then checking against the password e.g: (SHA1, MD5)
