In the classic tale of French chivalry, The Three Musketeers, the intrepid heroes more often than not find themselves in predicaments that one of them-in a drunken stupor-has precipitated. Traditionally many organisations were of the opinion that security breaches were something that only affected ‘other’ companies and would never happen to them. In January 2003, "Bank of America" was the most prominent victim of the aggressive "Slammer" computer virus that Richard Clarke, the former top adviser to President George W. Bush on cybersecurity, simply called "a dumb worm".

FileAssurity Open PGP is designed to be a low-cost alternative to PGP, while retaining full compatibility with PGP. With it, you can generate, import and export X.509 and PGP keys and it also supports encryption/decryption and digital signing/verifying of standard PGP files. Files or folders may be encrypted for storage or transmission by email. Bulk data encryption is carried out using 256-bit AES, with public-key-based Diffie-Hellman being used for session key exchange. RSA and DSS are used for digital signatures. Another feature is secure deletion according to U.S. government DOD 5220.22M. All 32-bit Windows platforms are supported.

The Cloud, a division of Inspired Broadcast Networks, is something of a low profile public Wi-Fi network, preferring to stay in the background as a wholesale wireless network operator.
When the service was launched earlier this year, the company offered access through two options, pay-as-you-use sessions from a variety of outlets, or through third parties, such as BT OpenZone, whose users can now roam seamlessly onto The Cloud's network.

Many companies are looking to secure their networks from wardriving attacks and the current advice is to put a VPN behind a wireless access point. With this in mind, the following product should be ideal. The aim of the product is to secure access to network infrastructure from wireless clients using the wireless transport layer security (WTLS) protocol, which is a wireless version of SSL.

Preventon Secure Internet Desktop or PSID for short, is an amalgam of all of the company's products in a multi-function suite. The software is available in two versions - an ISP edition that relies upon the subscription service for ISPs in order to maintain, update and interact with the client software on the user's desktop, and a desktop version that functions on a standalone basis. The ISP version of the Personal Firewall PRO is already available to subscribers of Planet Internet in the Netherlands, at a subscription price of just over a pound a month (€1.95) and other ISPs are expected to sign up to the service in due course.

ViRobot is a lesser-known anti-virus solution from Korean developer Global HAURI. It is not really a newcomer - it has been in the market since 1998 - but it has taken until recent times to really start to make a mark in Western markets.

Primary Response is the first product to come from Sana Security (formerly Company 51). The software is based on research that began in the mid-nineties and uses techniques more akin to the human immune system than conventional network security.

This product essentially takes over from where BlackICE Guard left off. The current version offers greater protocol analysis pattern-based detection and a few bug fixes thrown in for good measure.

Fortinet offers a range of what it calls 'anti-virus firewalls' for all markets, from the home user to the large enterprise and carrier-class service provider.

In the Gateway Security product, Symantec has come up with a range of gateway appliances, each of which combines firewall, anti-virus, virtual private network (VPN), content filtering and intrusion detection in one rack-mounted system that is 1U high.

NetIQ MailMarshal was the sleeper hit of the recent email security Group Test. Can this New Zealand-based software development center make it two in a row with its WebMarshal browser control? The answer is a resounding yes.

Most major federal agencies have not begun planning to transition to Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6), putting agency information and systems at risk, according to a report from the U.S. Government Accountability Office.

This product has four major components that provide remote control, helpdesk, inventory control and software distribution facilities. The system's key facility is its systems management capability that can provide accurate and up-to-date information about the hardware and software installed on the networks under its control.

Another approach to email security is to actively manage the emails being sent and received by your organization by means of rules and policies. This methodology is possibly more suited to those companies that require detailed audit trails, or who have had a problem with the unauthorized release of proprietary information via email, and it is the methodology espoused by Futuresoft's DynaComm i:series of products.

The control of email is the responsibility of DynaComm i:mail, which is fully integrated with the other products in the suite - these include an internet traffic filter and a file content scanner. Built into a dedicated SMTP server, the product can be positioned in a number of locations, depending on the configuration of your network and the needs of your business. It can also be located within the internal network, in which case all email - inbound and outgoing - will be processed. For smaller businesses with low email use - and smaller budgets - it can be located with the email server itself.

What strikes you when looking at the installation instructions for the securiQ and organiziQ Suites is the sheer number of operating systems supported. Although the mail server has to be Lotus Domino, alongside the familiar Windows platforms we see IBM OS/2 and AIX, Sun Solaris and a couple of Linuxes. We're told that from January the mail server will not have to be Lotus Notes, but our review was not able to verify this.

securiQ focuses on the management and security of email traffic, with features such as anti-virus available. This allows you to use your tool of choice, but does seem unfair given the cost. organiziQ manages the administration and overheads incurred by email.

Trend Micro is another familiar name in the anti-virus world. It has now branched out into email security with its InterScan Messaging Security Suite (IMSS), which, unsurprisingly, places a heavy emphasis on virus containment, but which also contains a number of other extremely valuable features.

IMSS is another spool-and-forward product, which means that the machine it is installed on should have a hard drive sufficient to handle your usual throughput of email. For this reason, and for reliability, it shouldn't really be installed on the SMTP server. Depending upon the needs of your network, it can be installed either in front of or behind your existing firewall, or even used in place of a firewall if - for some strange reason - you don't actually have one.

So far we have tested conventional remote access solutions, but the next product is designed for remote access with a difference. Take a situation where you have servers in many different geographical locations, but where employing IT specialists around the world is not economically viable.

American Megatrends, Inc. recognized this problem and introduced a hardware solution that enables the remote access required to repair and develop new installations and configurations from afar. The MegaRAC G2 provides a speedy connection, enabling one employee to oversee all your IT needs from just one location - in an instant.

RSA has issued an unexpected patch to plug a hole in its web application tool.
