BLA (Blind LLM Agents) is a defensive tool designed to make it harder for AI agents to reverse engineer software artifacts. It adds decoys and resource limits to supported builds, aiming to obstruct analysis while preserving normal program behavior.

Making AI reverse engineering harder

BLA adds decoys and resource limits to software artifacts, aiming to slow analysis while preserving normal program behavior.

Three layers of friction

Plant decoys

Canaries and misleading metadata resemble useful evidence.

Hit analysis limits

Selected artifact structures can exceed documented analyzer budgets.

Guard runtime

Inspection checks can return synthetic telemetry; BLA says tested behavior remains equivalent.

Evidence has boundaries

BLA reports real-REA failures on several formats, while some native and live-debugger paths remain unverified. Its separate 14-target benchmark uses internal estimates, not direct measurements of REA analysis.
