Ever wondered just how exposed your computer system is to the most common vulnerabilities? Now there is any easy and free way to find out.
Secunia, a great online security resource, now offers an Online Software Inspector (OSI) that quickly scans your PC for the most common programs and vulnerabilities. The scanner supports the inspection of about 100 or so programs including Adobe Acrobat Reader, all the major web-browsers, Microsoft operating systems and commonly found media players. This basic scan is certainly not complete, but will still give you a good overview of your computer’s security.
Once the scan has finished, if any insecure versions of software or vulnerabilities are found, the results window contains instructions and download links to fix the problems.
