BlueClosure vs. Javascript Obfuscator vs. OpenText Static Application Security Testing vs. Source Defense Comparison Chart

JavaScript Obfuscator transforms readable JavaScript source code into an obfuscated and unintelligible form, preventing reverse engineering, tampering, and intellectual property theft while preserving full functionality and compatibility with the latest ECMAScript versions. It includes powerful features such as minification and compression for reduced file size and faster load times, dead code insertion to confuse static analysis, and domain- or IP-based locking to disable code execution outside authorized environments. The tool provides GUI-driven desktop batch processing that allows users to protect JavaScript embedded in HTML, PHP, JSP, or similar files with just a few clicks, and supports keeping initial comments or inserting custom headers into output files. Advanced controls let you exclude certain names from obfuscation and ensure consistent symbol renaming across multiple files.

Source Defense is a mission critical element of web security designed to protect data at the point of input. The Source Defense Platform provides a simple and effective solution for data security and data privacy compliance – addressing threats and risks originating from the increased use of JavaScript, third-party vendors, and open-source code in your web properties. The Platform provides options for securing your own code, as well as addressing a ubiquitous gap in the management of third-party digital supply chain risk – controlling the actions of the third-party, fourth and nth party JavaScript that powers your site experience. The Source Defense Platform protects against all forms of client-side security incidents – keylogging, formjacking, digital skimming, Magecart, etc. – by extending web security beyond the server to the client-side (the browser).
