It does not use virtualization, meaning the original IL (Intermediate Language) code remains intact, just hidden or scrambled. Once the decryption key (often hardcoded or generated simply) is found or the memory is dumped, the protection is effectively nullified.
DeepSea Obfuscator v4 often replaces direct method calls with proxy methods. These proxy calls act as indirection layers that obscure which method is actually being invoked.
