Introduction
The Secure Python Code Manager is an innovative solution for
developers looking to share Python code securely, protect
their Python code, and implement Python code
encryption techniques. By leveraging the Alpha Beta Network cloud
platform, this tool addresses the challenges of secure code sharing
and source code protection.
Whether you're distributing scripts to clients, collaborating with
colleagues, or contributing to open-source projects, this tool ensures
your intellectual property remains secure through advanced code
obfuscation in Python and flexible licensing options.
Key Features
-
Secure Code Sharing: Encrypt and protect your Python scripts to
prevent unauthorized access or modification. -
Source Code Protection: Utilize multi-level protection with
dynamic obfuscation, enhancing Python code security best
practices. -
Flexible Licensing: Create time-limited or device-specific
licenses with customizable usage parameters. -
Seamless Code Updates: Update your code in the cloud without
requiring client-side reinstallation. -
Revocable Access: Revoke or disable access to shared code at any
time. -
Usage Monitoring: Automated monitoring and control of suspicious
activity, including usage limits and IP restrictions. -
Python Secure Code Transfer: Ensure your code is not stored on
the user's local machine, enhancing security. -
Easy Integration: Implement the entire process in just one step
using our command-line tool. -
Cross platform compatibility: The protected Python scripts maintain
their cross-platform functionality and can be executed on any operating
system (Windows, MacOS, Linux/Unix and others) where Python 3.6+ is installed.
How It Works
-
Upload Your Code: Use the command-line tool to upload your
Python source code to the Alpha Beta Network cloud platform. Specify
allowed usage parameters such as usage period, device limits, daily
usage limits, and more. -
Automatic Protection: The service automatically implements
multi-level protection using dynamic code obfuscation in Python,
resulting in a license file (protected code loader) according to
your specified license parameters. -
Secure Distribution: Download the ready license file and use it
instead of your source code. The file performs the functionality of
your code without exposing the source, enabling secure code
sharing. -
Manage Licenses: Extend, update, or revoke licenses as needed.
Monitor service usage and retrieve detailed license information. -
Automatic Deletion: Upon license expiration, your code is
automatically deleted from the cloud, ensuring continued security.
An online demo version is also available for quick testing:

Installation
Before using the Secure Python Code Manager, ensure that you
have Python 3 installed on your system.
Install Required Packages
The script requires the following Python packages:
-
requests
-
psutil
-
cryptography
Install them using pip:
pip install requests psutil cryptographyDownload the Script
Clone the repository and navigate to the project directory:
git clone https://github.com/alphabetanetcom/secure-python-code-manager.git
cd secure-python-code-managerAlternatively, download the secure_python_code_manager.py script
directly to your local machine.
Usage
The Secure Python Code Manager provides the following main
functionalities:
Uploading Code and Creating a License
Upload your Python script to the cloud and create a new license for it.
Command Syntax:
python secure_python_code_manager.py --upload -f /path/to/your_script.pyParameters:
-
--upload or -u: Specifies the action to upload code.
-
--file FILE_PATH or -f FILE_PATH: Specifies the path to
the .py file to upload.
Example:
python secure_python_code_manager.py --upload -f my_script.pyUpon successful upload, the script will provide a license key and save
the protected code loader.
Updating Previously Uploaded Code
Update a previously uploaded script associated with a specific license.
Command Syntax:
python secure_python_code_manager.py --update -f /path/to/your_script.py -l LICENSE_KEYParameters:
-
--update or -p: Specifies the action to update code.
-
--file FILE_PATH or -f FILE_PATH: Specifies the path to
the .py file to update. -
--license LICENSE_KEY or -l LICENSE_KEY: Specifies the license key
associated with the code to update.
Example:
python secure_python_code_manager.py --update -f my_script.py -l 1234567890Retrieving License Information
Retrieve detailed information about your licenses, including status and
usage data.
Command Syntax:
python secure_python_code_manager.py --license-info -l LICENSE_KEYS [OPTIONS]Parameters:
-
--license-info or -i: Specifies the action to retrieve license
information. -
-l LICENSE_KEYS or --license LICENSE_KEYS: Specifies the license
key(s) to retrieve information for. Use all to retrieve information
for all licenses. -
--extend or -e: (Optional) Extends the expiration date of the
specified licenses by 24 hours. -
--set_hwids NUMBER or -d NUMBER: (Optional) Sets the maximum
number of hardware IDs for the specified licenses.
Examples:
Retrieve information for a specific license:
python secure_python_code_manager.py --license-info -l 1234567890Extend the expiration date:
python secure_python_code_manager.py --license-info -l 1234567890 --extendRetrieving Service Usage Information
Retrieve information about your service usage, including uploaded
scripts and associated licenses.
Command Syntax:
python secure_python_code_manager.py --service-usageParameters:
- --service-usage or -s: Specifies the action to retrieve service
usage information.
Example:
python secure_python_code_manager.py --service-usageDetailed Documentation

Application Areas
The Secure Python Code Manager can be effectively applied in the
following areas:
-
Commercial Distribution: Safely share Python code with clients
or customers, implementing Python code protection tools for
sales or rentals. -
Collaborative Development: Share code securely with colleagues
or team members without exposing the source code. -
Testing and Verification: Provide intermediate versions for
verification and testing, including fixing bugs and adding new
functionality using seamless code updates. -
Intellectual Property Protection: Maintain control over your
code to prevent unauthorized usage or copying, preserving
your intellectual property. -
Server Infrastructure Management: Securely deploy and run protected
Python scripts on rented servers (both virtual and physical), ensuring
code confidentiality from both datacenter providers and end clients.
This enables safe automation and configuration of client servers while
protecting your proprietary code and implementation details.
Security and Best Practices
By implementing Python secure code transfer protocols, the Alpha
Beta Network strives to keep code better protected during
transmission. This commitment to security extends to various aspects of
the platform, aiming to improve Python code security best practices.
While no system can guarantee absolute security, the Secure Python
Code Manager represents an effort to empower developers to share their
code with increased confidence, significantly enhancing security with
new solutions that we implement.
The Local Python Code Protector Script can also be effectively used to further
protect licensed source code files created by the Alpha Beta Network cloud
platform (more advanced and flexible source code protection solutions such
as Python Obfuscator Online and Secure Python Code Manager Script).
