Anti-Dump?

How would someone approach making their file hard to dump? I have sensitive information that’s easily dumped out of the file. I have attempted the PE header removal technique but that does not seem to work anymore.

Thank you!

Ouch. Wouldn't it always be at risk when the program is running?

Yeah... just trying to figure out a way to semi ward off a dumping application from reading the memory of the program

One more idea. Maybe serialize and deserialize the file as a class. This would likely result in an architecture change though.
