You want to prevent administrators that have access to the server hosting your application to access the application itself?

Hi,

Some of the basic steps you can do like,

1) Your database server should be with secured credentials.
2) your Configuration file should be encrypted.
3) You can create web service to place your license logic on other server.
4) You can obfuscate all library.

Hope this is sufficient for primary securing your code.

Thanks

Hi Amit thanks for your response

How do i encrypt my web config file and will this not make it slower because at has to decrypt everytime.

Am I correct in saying that they will not have access to the .csfiles

if you do dll obfuscation then getting code back is very difficult. and for config file encryption it is asp.net function so don't worry about performance. you ca check MSDN for encrypting connectionstring. just google for it, you will get your code from first page links.
