 **Update: **Learn more about the latest version of DexGuard. [Read more about it here.](https://23593082.hs-sites.com/factsheet-dexguard)

We are proud to announce the release of DexGuard 7.1. The latest release of DexGuard is the product of our continuous effort to develop the best possible software for the protection of Android applications. It delivers significant improvements to our current security technology and introduces interesting new features.

The new features included in DexGuard 7.1 are:

- **Arithmetic Obfuscation**, which allows you to obfuscate simple arithmetic and logical expressions in the source code.
- **Control Flow Obfuscation**, which allows you to obfuscate the logical structure of the code.
- **Obfuscation of Native Library Names**, which allows you to hide the names of native libraries in the bytecode and in the native code.
- **Resource File Encryption**, which allows you to encrypt entire XML files.

The most notable innovation is the introduction of **Pluggable Encryption**. This patent-pending feature allows you to plug-in proprietary algorithms for the encryption and decryption of strings, classes, resources, assets and native libraries.

Read more about DexGuard 7.1 on the [DexGuard page](https://23593082.hs-sites.com/dexguard).
