Deobfuscate

Security. Obfuscation is a built-in security method, sometimes referred to as application self-protection . Instead of using an external security method, it works within what’s being protected. It is well-suited for protecting applications that run in an untrusted environment and that contain sensitive information.

Code Obfuscation is the process of modifying an executable so that it is no longer useful to a hacker but remains fully functional . While the process may modify actual method instructions or metadata, it does not alter the output of the program.

To obfuscate is to confuse someone, or to obscure the meaning of something. An example of obfuscate is when a politician purposely gives vague answers to a question so no one knows his real position . To deliberately make more confusing in order to conceal the truth.
