Nowadays, Flash files are extremely popular and used by many people and contained by many websites. That's because creating a SWF file is not a difficult task if one has the right application. Besides that, there is a lot you can do with a SWF file, from displaying a simple animation to creating a complete website with a lot of interactive menus. But there is a problem regarding publishing SWF files online and that's the possibility to decrypt them. Unauthorized users can copy your SWF file and can extract all the contents from it. Thus, he can clone your website and pretend that it is theirs. But don't worry, because there is a solution to this and it's called SWF Defender.

You can guess what the program is about by reading its name. It's about protecting and locking SWF files, so they cannot be decrypted using any software, no matter how advanced that program is. It's a Windows application with a familiar installation wizard. SWF Defender is virtually compatible with any SWF file, no matter what version of Adobe Flash was used for creating it.

One just needs to import the desired SWF file into the program and then select which items contained by it he would like to protect. All those items will be impossible to decrypt. Furthermore, SWF Defender can lock a SWF file to a current domain, so it cannot be used on another web link. This will prevent unauthorized users from cloning your Flash website and using it on their own web servers. After making all the necessary changes and clicking the Protect button, the newly protected SWF files will be created near the original files, in the same folder as these.

There is not a maximum number of SWF files that can be imported into SWF Defender. The program also features the possibility to play the SWF file using the default Windows application for this. Thus, one will quickly know it the imported SWF file is the correct file or not.

Pros

It allows importing an unlimited number of SWF files into the interface. Besides that, only certain items of a SWF file can be protected. Furthermore, the SWF file can be locked to a specific domain, making it impossible to use on other web servers.

Cons

There is a noticeable lack of options in the interface. SWF Defender is a solution for protecting and locking any SWF file, making it impossible to decrypt.
