steve gibson wrote the first version of his hard drive analysis/data recovery tool spinrite 19 years ago, and he's been filling grc.com with free tools, utilities, and information ever since. in addition to spinrite and the legendary shields up!! port-vulnerability scanner, turn to grc for new tools such as securable (which reveals some of your cpu's features) and great info such as the security now column/podcast. visit www.grc.com |
a behind-the-scenes program that monitors the level of worms, bots, and other malicious activity on the internet is the heart of the internet storm center, but that's not the reason to visit the site regularly. rather, it's the daily diary detailing a fairly technical but always informative analysis of the story behind the data that we find compelling. cheers to the sans institute and the isc's all-volunteer staff! visit isc.sans.org |

been wondering why you pay an annual fee to a company like symantec for up-to-date security software? take a look at the vendor-neutral information on securityfocus (click the vulnerabilities tab to read about the latest exploits) or read the bugtraq mailing list to see what the professionals are up to. it's fascinating, informative, and really, really scary. visit www.securityfocus.com |
