The Linker interface intended for linking multiple managed executables or assemblies into a single module or assembly.
Or you may suggest secure the combined libraries after Linkage.
Usually, if all the functionality of your distributed application is not required at once, you might want to consider having the application divided into separate modules or libraries. It does the linkage afterwards your main assembly has been obfuscated. Also, you do not have to worry about missing dlls when your application is deployed.The Skater's special Linker interface is the utility that can link multiple modules into a single file for deployment. The .NET runtime will load each component only when a type is referenced.
On the second hand, packaging everything into a single file will bring performance improvements, mostly because the loader does not have to take the time to resolve all the dependency issues. Please obfuscate the joined modules before Linkage. The assigned referenced and non-referenced assemblies will be linked into your final obfuscated assembly afterwards when obfuscation is done for your current open assembly. NOTE: The linked assemblies will not be obfuscated.

Over the years, several software protection techniques have been developed, code obfuscation is one of them and it is very promising.This is definitely a clear threat for software producers and thus to global economy. Unauthorized access to source code can offer a quick back entrance into your systems, business processes and revenue streams. With more than half of million developers with some level of access to .NET reengineering tools providing near instant access to source from any .NET binary, organizations across industries are entrusting on obfuscation to managing these risks. Global piracy rate has increased 40% over the past years and nearly $11 billion is lost.
