bla
BLA is a defensive tool that makes software harder for AI reverse-engineering agents to analyze, for people protecting their own apps and builds.
What it is good for
- Protecting shipped app builds from AI reverse-engineering
- Adding decoy code and fake clues to compiled software
- Making AI analysis tools run out of resource budget
- Checking that a hardened build still behaves the same
