Computer Security Tools

Tools Here is a list of potentially useful tools and utilities with which to fight the onslaught of viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and other malware. Don’t consider it in any way a complete list! There are lots of other tools out there, which you can find easily via Google, et. al. Also, I’ve tended to focus on Windows-based tools (with some mention of Unix/Linux-based tools), because most of you have Windows machines. Also, I don’t really have access to a Unix/Linux machine. 9/19/2018 Bryan J. Higgs, 2006
