Abstract

A computer implemented anti-tamper system employing runtime profiling of software in order to decide where to inject integrity checks into the software, to enable verification of whether or not the software has been tampered with. Runtime profiling and analysis is used to record information about the application, in order to establish the locations and targets of runtime integrity checks in order to optimize protection security, while minimizing the performance penalty and the need for hand configuration.
