Building an obfuscation compiler based on LLVM infrastructure

The paper describes the obfuscating transformations, which were implemented while developing an LLVM-based obfuscating compiler in ISP RAS. The proposed transformations are based on well-known obfuscation algorithms and are specifically improved to resist better to static analysis deobfuscation tec...
