Protect Hub
Protect Hub is the ClavisAUH defensive community: a place where software makers learn and share how to keep their apps safe from crackers and reverse engineers. The Hub only accepts defensive content, and has a Library of official articles, learning paths and a reputation system that keeps quality high.

Reading and searching
- Protect Hub is public and needs no account. Posts are sorted by Hot, New or Top.
- Search ignores Vietnamese accents, so a query typed without them still finds accented posts.
- Filter by topic with the tags under Topics: Fundamentals, Network, Device, Integrity, Operations.
- Every post has a table of contents, an estimated reading time and a Discussion section below.
The Library and learning paths
The Library holds official, bilingual, defensive-only articles. Each one is tied to the matching protection method in ClavisAUH, with a Turn it on in your app box that opens that method on the Protection page.
Learning paths put Library articles in reading order for one goal:
- Protection basics in an hour, for beginners.
- Stopping key sharing across machines and people.
- Making your software hard to reverse.

- They contain a sensitive keyword configured by the ClavisAUH team.
- They contain outside links and you have less than 50 reputation.
- The account is less than a day old and has already posted twice that day.
