Abstract
Software application protection methods and systems for protecting and verifying licensing of an original application. The system reads the original application executable, and generates a shelled application comprising the original application and a shell containing the license information. The shelled application implements license APIs, and establishes secure communications within the shelled application between the original application and the shell. Licensing for the original application can be verified by the shelled application alone.
