Hi [~kishorekumar], using the obfuscation utility in a Linux shell requires proper quotes and/or escaping.  The & is being picked up as a process separator otherwise.  Examples:

{code}
kawright@1USDKAWRIGHT:/mnt/c/wip/mcf/trunk/dist/obfuscation-utility$ ./obfuscate.sh "#Sample%"
oxYHd75QgtNbohFHQZz/RY9ZwvkAWOSiOhFj7hby0Eg=
kawright@1USDKAWRIGHT:/mnt/c/wip/mcf/trunk/dist/obfuscation-utility$ ./obfuscate.sh "#Sample%&="
