Hello,
You're going on the wrong path. It's far easier to sniff the network traffic
to get the password than to decompile the program. Furthermore you can't
achieve good security this way (games vendors try hard to do this but are
always defeated). You can't hope to gain control on what your users do with
the access you gave them.
So, the right thing to do is to only allow on the database server the
operations your client app needs given the account you created specifically
for it.

Hello Everyone.

I am building a client in python that will connect himself to a mysql
server with a certain username and password. I will compile this client
and turn him into a .exe . The thing is that I know that is possible to
get the source of the code back from an .exe and I don't want anyone to
know which username and password are they using because I don't want
them to access to the mysql server without my client. Do you have any
ideas of what can i do? Thanks!
