  • ClearMyMail spam filtering review
    Anti-spam software doesn't have a great reputation. A new approach is to run the whole thing as a service, taking the hassle away from the user. But is it really that simple?
  • RedSeal Security Risk Manager review
    Working out where a network is most at risk can be a time-consuming process. RedSeal's Security Risk Manager offers a system administrator some real assistance in working out the most vulnerable weak spots - but at a price.
  • Yosemite FileKeeper Pro 2.8 review
    Reviewing backup software is usually a chore. There is a legion of products out there, some good, some very comprehensive but just too difficult to use. A few are awful, including some from supposedly big software houses. This one turned out to be very different.

    A distributed desktop computer management package that allows you, from a central console, to remotely manage and control the security of a collection of Windows PCs on your LAN.

  • Applicure dotDefender 3.0 review
    Vanilla web server security won't stop SQL injection, cross-site scripting, worms, and other assaults. Applicure dotDefender 3.0 is an easily managed server plug-in, protects against these types of attacks.
  • Buffalo MiniStation TurboUSB review
    Portable hard drives should be about as interesting as the oversize cigarette packets they resemble. This one reckons it's special.
  • Yoggie Pico Pro review
    The Pico, from Israeli startup Yoggie, is a new version of a mobile security product we looked at earlier in the year, the Yoggie Gatekeeper Pro. It's smaller, cheaper, and a bit faster, and has no Ethernet connectivity. Is less more then?
  • AirTight SpectraGuard, wireless LAN security review
    Here's a system that can warn you about wireless intrusion and rogue access points on your network.
  • ZyXel ZyWall SSL 10 review
    A good buy with plenty of useful features that can help SMBs offer safe and secure remote access.
  • Microsoft Windows PowerShell 1.0 review
    It costs nothing and it comes from Microsoft. We peer into the abyss of the gift horse's mouth to figure out whether this is a useful download or another dark, blank prompt to eat our hopelessly mangled syntax.
  • Yoggie Gatekeeper Pro review
    Those clever Israelis have been at it again, creating another security product nobody else thought of. This time, it's the laptop firewall that does almost everything. That's almost everything.
  • SyncBackSE backup and sync v4.1 review
    It is axiomatic that backup software is usually so slow and cumbersome that people end up not using it. Occasionally, you come across a small, blossoming software flower, and it restores some of your interest. Without wanting to get too carried away, SyncBackSE could be one such program.
  • D-Link DI 724GU Gigabit Wi-Fi router review
    It's taken Wi-Fi vendors a long time to find time for Gigabit Ethernet, but here it is in a new packet shifter from D-Link. And about time too. This router has a few tricks up its sleeve but Gigabit is the most important.
  • Sana Security Air Cover 2.0 review
    Desktop firewalls are ten-a-penny but programs that do the same for Wi-Fi and wireless conectivity are still thin on the ground. Here's one of the first pieces of software that sorts out the problem.
  • Witopia SecureMyWiFi authentication review
    The Wi-Fi security system that sends wardrivers and wireless freeloaders back under the damp rocks from whence they came.
  • Billion BiGuard S10 SSL VPN review
    The mainstream security companies have new competition from Asia. This SSL VPN product from unknown Billion Electric, with integrated firewall and QoS, is the first to do battle. And it stands its ground remarkably well for the price.
  • Password Protector 2006 review
    Password management drives most admins crazy, so much so that not all of them bother. Here is a powerful utility that can do it all: enforce password length and complexity; store all passwords and automate logins; it even backs itself up and tells you when to cycle passwords. It will do this for a router, a web or FTP site, and even for files themselves.
  • Steganos Internet Anonym VPN review
    Here’s a clever security idea that one day everybody will simultaneously claim they invented – connect to the Internet using a VPN. But what happens if you aren’t a large company with a VPN server, or just want to connect using an insecure public network?
