Do you have scripts that contain sensitive information like passwords
and you pretty much depend on file permissions to keep it secure? If
so, then that type of security is good provided you keep your system
secure and some user doesn’t have a “ps -ef” loop running in an attempt
to capture that sensitive info (though some applications mask passwords
in “ps” output). There is a program called “shc” that can be used to
add an extra layer of security to those shell scripts. SHC will encrypt
shell scripts using RC4 and make an executable binary out of the shell
script and run it as a normal shell script. This utility is great for
programs that require a password to either encrypt, decrypt, or require
a password that can be passed to a command line argument.
