IP Obfuscator - Simple Tool To Convert An IP Into Integer, Hexadecimal Or Octal Form

[sc name=”ad_1″]

IP Obfuscator is a simple tool written in python to convert an IP into different obfuscated forms. This tool will help you to obfuscate host addresses into integer, hexadecimal or octal form.

What is Obfuscation?
“In software development, obfuscation is the deliberate act of creating source or machine code that is difficult for humans to understand. Like obfuscation in natural language, it may use needlessly roundabout expressions to compose statements. Programmers may deliberately obfuscate code to conceal its purpose (security through obscurity) or its logic or implicit values embedded in it, primarily, in order to prevent tampering, deter reverse engineering, or even as a puzzle or recreational challenge for someone reading the source code. This can be done manually or by using an automated tool, the latter being the preferred technique in industry.” -wikipedia-
Example:
Standard readable URL of Google looks like this https://www.google.com. But every single URL can be called by server’s IP address as well. Therefore http://74.125.68.99 is the equivalant server IP of https://www.google.com. This tool hides this plain text IPv4 address so that it is is difficult for humans to understand. Following are the obfuscated forms of http://74.125.68.99
