Description
Security should be a very important and concerning issue in you every day
activity. No matter you are part of a company or a home user, it is very
important to protect your work. You need a good security software. Computer Security
protects you
encrypting sensitive data, hiding it in innocent carriers, allowing safe
transfer through encrypted self-extracting package, delete files beyond
recovery and even locking application from your children or " welcomed
quests".
Do I need Computer
Security ?
Every
organization and individual possesses certain vital information - a unique
formula, specialized customer database, a personal diary, annual financial
data, etc. The organization would be compromised if such data fell into the
wrong hands.
Until a few years ago, protecting such information was relatively easy. All
one required was a strong safe with a single key to access it. However, such
privacy does not exist anymore. Encryption is now the only way to protect
your valuables. Currently, except for a few strong encryption packages,
there are no means available to perform this critical encryption function.
Passwords within most programs (Word, Excel, Access etc.) can be broken by
mere novices without any computing knowledge. Such password breaking tools
are easily available on the Worldwide Web, for as little as $5.95, or
sometimes even for free!
Most companies invest millions of dollars in putting up firewalls and trying
to secure their networks. Ironically, they spend the least amount of money
in protecting the area where the data actually resides or is created, the PC
their employees use. The costs involved in securing data at the user level
are minimum. They refuse to pay only 35$ for a security software.
Encryption renders your data, even if accessed by an unauthorized person,
unintelligible and unusable. By adopting the simplest prevention techniques,
you can ensure complete data privacy.
Hacking no longer requires experts. There are literally thousands of
off-the-shelf programs available on the Internet that are as easy to use as
the software packages you are so familiar with. Anyone, even a child with
limited or no computer know-how, can use these packages to hack into your
systems. There is no defined, requisite learning curve - the amount of
knowledge or background essential to be an effective 'hacker' is virtually
zero.
Simple acts like going online to check your mail exposes your machine to
being hacked. It is a trivial task to 'wiretap' somebody's email, so that
all future correspondence is now in the hacker's inbox as well.
At
http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~pgut001/pubs/secure_del.html
you can find a scientific study made by Peter Gutmann, from Department of
Computer Science, University of Auckland, in which is explained with full
technical details the principles of the Magnetic dispositive and what
methods can be used to recover the files after they have been overwritten
several times with data. You can also find there a ton of references to
other scientific paperwork's on the same subject.
The only way to truly delete files is to overwrite them with special
chosen patterns of bytes, using a complex algorithm which analyze the
characteristics of your particular hard drive and the data to be deleted,
making sure that there will not be any information which could be retrieved
using MFM ( Magnetic force microscopy ), MFSTM ( Magnetic force scanning
tunnelling microscopy ) or other special methods to find data reminisce.
Why
Computer Security ?
Computer Security takes care of your sensitive data, encrypting and
decrypting it, hiding it in innocent carriers, becoming the first level of
defence against attacks.
Computer Security encrypts information using over 20 algorithms like Twofish,
Blowfish, Ghost,
Rijndael,
Sapphire
II ,
making it impossible to decrypt without the correct password.
Children
or employees often browse your applications. Got some personal programs?
Tired of leaving your PC afraid that someone will find them? Now you can do
that with no concern, because Computer Security locks any program so
that no one can use it.
Most of
the other shredding utilities overwrite the files to be deleted with random
or junk data! Well, keep away from those ones! Experts say that no matter
how many times the files are overwritten with random patterns, they can
still be recovered using the magnetic reminisce!

Computer Security is one of the few utilities that use a special algorithm to
delete files forever! It overwrites files with random information, using a
different number of layers for every byte. This makes it impossible to
cover.
