SoftwareShield™'s IronWrap currently can wrap, protect and support the following application formats:

  • Standard PE 32-bit Windows applications (.EXE outputs)
  • Adobe Flash applications
  • .NET applications (including .NET 4.5)
  • App Mac OSX applications

Windows Applications

Using SoftwareShield™, your Windows-based applications can be fully protected and wrapped into a native Win32 Exe bundle (or several bundles as user-specified)

Adobe Flash applications

Using SoftwareShield™, your Flash-based applications can be fully protected and wrapped into a native Win32 Exe bundle (or several bundles as user-specified). What makes SoftwareShield™ much more powerful than a SWF to EXE converter is that all application-related files such as SWF movies, dlls, ActiveX controls, textures, audios, videos, documents (HTML, XML, CHM, etc.) can also be included and encrypted in the .EXE bundle as part of SoftwareShield™'s IronWrapping process. SoftwareShield™'s protection solution is 100% transparent to Adobe® Flash developers so there is no need to make any change to the Flash application source code.

Protection of SWF and Flash executables is only one part of SoftwareShield™'s DRM. By employing one of SoftwareShield™'s supported license models Flash developers are able to open up new revenue streams for their content. Popular distribution models such as Try-Before-You-Buy or "Buy and Download" can be leveraged to monetize Flash applications alongside other applications retailed online.

.Net Applications

Using SoftwareShield™, your .NET-based applications can be fully protected and wrapped into a native Win32 Exe bundle (or several bundles as user-specified). SoftwareShield™ supports all .NET versions including .NET 4.5.

Apple Mac OSX Applications

Using SoftwareShield™, your Mac-based applications can be fully protected and wrapped. SoftwareShield™ for Mac supports MacOS 10.5+ (Leopard, Snow Leopard) and Intel-based 32 bit and 64 bit CPU types.
