Anti-Tamper mechanisms detect unauthorized modifications to software binaries, configurations, or memory during runtime. Detection may involve checksums, digital signatures, or memory integrity verification.
When tampering is detected, software can trigger defensive actions such as self-termination, license invalidation, or logging of suspicious activity. This creates a strong deterrent to tampering and piracy.
Fusion by PACE includes built-in tamper detection mechanisms that continuously monitor application integrity during execution. It builds a network of thousands of checks that are fused with the application's functional code.
