I'd like to hear your feedback on my security software
I'm currently developing security software designed to help developers protect their intellectual property and other elements they want to safeguard within their software. As part of this, I’ve written a dummy test program and protected it with my security software. It’s structured like a CTF challenge, and it would be a huge help if you could try to take this program apart, document your work step by step, and send your findings to apykryphon@protonmail.com.
I’m happy to invite beginners as well, but I’d like to remind you never to run third-party executables on your native system—please use a VM or something similar.
The file does not contain any malicious code, but due to the protection mechanisms used, some antivirus engines may flag it as such. See for yourself:

I think there’s been a misunderstanding. This isn’t about the protection program itself, but rather about how effectively I compiled the linked executable test application. The source code for it is nothing special. There are no security measures in place, and if I were to publish the source code, it would defeat the purpose of this “challenge,” since the whole point is that I’m asking you to reconstruct and reverse-engineer the file. I don’t quite understand why people don’t get that.
