How to protect source code. Building a new software. Need help!
My brother who is a Design Engineer (Civil) is currently building a software product related to his construction field. Software is in MVP stage and it is being used by few users . It's developed as an (.exe) file, he currently shares it with people through "we transfer". Wanted to know couple of things as he is very new to this..
Is therr a better way of sharing the, .exe with others?
How can he protect the source code, is it possible for users to access the source code after installating the application or sharing the package files through we transfer
Related to code signing, after installing exe it asks for security related questions like is it safe to install or similar question. We want to avoid that, researched about code signing. Does it help?
Please if some can help us with above questions. It's of a great value for us.
