A source-level compiler may randomly select compilation conventions to implement portable content protection, securing the secrets embedded in a program by shuffling associated data. The program may be developed using a source language that is applicative on the associated data. To obscure the embedded secrets, in one embodiment, pre-compiler software may be deployed for compiling the program in a random-execution-order based on a random seed indication that randomly selects compilation conventions and a shuffling algorithm that moves the associated data across the program during execution.
