Reduce my cracking app (cocoafob)

Question

I use cocoafob for licensing. Unfortunately, my application is always hacked after each release. Is there a way to make this a little harder?

Answer 1

In my personal opinion, it is very unlikely that someone who uses the hacked version of your application will become a payment client. An argument that equates a cracked / pirated / stolen copy with a sold copy is incorrect.

However, you can read about reverse engineering Mac OS X / Cocoa applications to find out how it works (Charles Miller’s “Mac Hacker Guide” / Dino Dai Zovi is a good book for this topic or if you want an online resource looking for Phrack Magazine No. 66).

Once you understand how an attacker defeats license protection in your application, you can try to make it a little more difficult, but you need to understand that it is impossible to stop a motivated attacker . This is probably the best idea to just use the Apple Mac store and spend your time building your application.
