Program protection apparatus, program protection method, and program protection program
The program protection device ( 100 ) includes an encoding unit ( 133 ) and an output unit ( 135 ). An encoding unit ( 133 ) encodes a program to be protected according to a specific encoding algorithm, and stores information used for decoding the encoded program in a relocation table of the encoded program. The output unit ( 135 ) outputs the program encoded by the encoding unit ( 133 ) as a protected program.
