Data obfuscator package

Project description

travis ci build state Coverage Status

Introduction

Obfuscator is a Python package used to obfuscate a set of data (e.g. bytes). It provides no encryption! It’s strictly a “security through obscurity” tool, with limited usefulness. You have been warned!

Documentation

Documentation is hosted on readthedocs: obfuscator.readthedocs.org

Install

Download the tarball and install with pip install <package>.

Usage

See the unit tests for more in-depth examples. Here are the basics:

import obfuscator
original_bytes = map(ord, "testing")
_key, obfuscated_bytes = obfuscator.obfuscate_xor(original_bytes, key=0x66)
deobfuscated_bytes = obfuscator.deobfuscate_xor(key=0x66, data=obfuscated_bytes)
assert original_bytes == deobfuscated_bytes

ofile = obfuscator.file.ObfuscatedFile("test.bin")
data = map(ord, "testing")
ofile.write(data, key=123, minimum_length=32)
self.assertEqual(32, os.path.getsize("test.bin"))
