i do have some cgi application with hardcoded data which is visible in plain text to anyone. is there any way to hide those code? preventing users from accessing this file isn't an option.

What are you trying to hide? The code on the system, or the output/display of that code?

(I'm guessing it's on the system, so that sounds like more of a device-specific security/permissions issue)

isnt there any code based solution?

Why not just lock down that directory for everyone but you/another admin?

What OS are you on?

You should be using source control software.

You keep the working copies in folders known only to you.

Then when you check in, you can flash copy the code to a user directory where they can fiddle with the code all they want since it's not the real code.

No one should be accessing the working set unless they are security cleared.
