BlueClosure vs. JS-Confuser vs. JavaScript vs. WebAssembly Comparison Chart

JS-Confuser is a powerful, open source JavaScript obfuscation tool that transforms your source code into a highly unreadable form, deterring reverse engineering, tampering, and unauthorized reuse while preserving full functionality. It offers multiple obfuscation techniques, including variable renaming, control flow flattening, string concealing, and function obfuscation, along with locks such as domain-based or date-based execution constraints and integrity checks to detect runtime modifications. Designed for flexibility, it provides obfuscation presets, ranging from 10 to 21+ transformation layers, and also allows fully customizable configurations to suit performance and protection needs. The tool operates entirely in the browser for fast, private obfuscation workflows, and includes advanced tooling features such as a playground for interactive experimentation, customizable options via JavaScript, integrated code prettification, and debugging support.

WebAssembly (abbreviated Wasm) is a binary instruction format for a stack-based virtual machine. Wasm is designed as a portable compilation target for programming languages, enabling deployment on the web for client and server applications. The Wasm stack machine is designed to be encoded in a size- and load-time-efficient binary format. WebAssembly aims to execute at native speed by taking advantage of common hardware capabilities available on a wide range of platforms. WebAssembly describes a memory-safe, sandboxed execution environment that may even be implemented inside existing JavaScript virtual machines. When embedded in the web, WebAssembly will enforce the same-origin and permissions security policies of the browser. WebAssembly is designed to be pretty-printed in a textual format for debugging, testing, experimenting, optimizing, learning, teaching, and writing programs by hand. The textual format will be used when viewing the source of Wasm modules on the web.
