Hi, I just sent a post inquiring about software protection. I think my
question was partially misunderstood.
Here is my situation: I have developed a great deal of code, I own the
company, and I sell this code/product in
the compiled state useing authorization codes etc. to protect copyrights at
the user level. My problem is that I am considering hiring someone to help
write additional source code. How do I protect my source code when the
programer needs access to it? :) Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Pre-employment background check?

Intimidating language in employee manual?
Mean looking guard standing at the door?
All of the above?
Quien sabe..

I do not know what else to tell you, you must find a person that you can
trust.... lately I have worked with a team of programmers and the parts I
was considered very important to me, I never gave to them nothing, I was the
one at the end putting everything together.

What about getting him on your office a Pc without any drives
(Floppy/CD/USB) and no internet conenction ?
He won't copy do a floppy disk,cd ou USB Pen... nor send some email or file
thru net...

PS : The part of no USB Drives is the tricky one.. I think...
