Abstract

A non-transient computer usable medium has computer usable instructions embodied thereon, the computer usable instructions configured to cause a computer device to perform the steps of receiving an intermediate program code prior to execution of the intermediate program code; recognizing data storage commands within the intermediate program code; modifying the intermediate program code such that, during execution of the intermediate program code, the data is encrypted before it is stored; recognizing data retrieval commands within the intermediate program code; modifying the intermediate program code such that, during execution of the intermediate program code, the data is decrypted after it is retrieved; and providing the modified intermediate program code for execution.
