RegDefend v2.000 Beta and CryptoSuite
« on: August 24, 2005, 02:29 PM »
I've known mouser for quite a while and he suggested I make a post about my software on his forum. So here goes :)

Firstly I am a shareware developer, my website is :- http://www.ghostsecurity.com

RegDefend v2.000 Beta :-
http://www.wildersse...owthread.php?t=94216

This is the latest beta of my RegDefend software, which is shareware, but it also has a free version. Basically it protects the registry from malicious software, and also lets you configure and tweak the access programs have to the registry if you desire. Why is protecting the registry important? Because it is usually the very first thing malicious software like trojans, adware, spyware, etc modify so that they stay alive on your system. If they can't make those modifications to the registry then they have little chance of surviving.

RegDefend is made to be used by all sorts of people, ranging from people who know little about the registry, all the way up to the experts.


CryptoSuite v1.050 :- http://www.cryptosuite.com

CryptoSuite is a bunch of encryption related utilities, basically covering file encryption with 256bit Rijndael AND Twofish in cascade mode, secure chatting, checksumming, secure deletion, etc.

great !

jason used to work at DiamondCS (http://www.diamondcs.com.au/) and is one of those rare people that is both highly technically accomplished but also still likes to talk to his users.

i definitely recommend you check out his software.

Thanks Jason! Sounds like RegDefend could have saved me four days of eye-splitting heachaches this week.

Two bits of good news in one post.  :)

I've been a long-term user of Process Guard, but have been holding off on GhostSecurity RegDefend due to a few limitations with 1.X.  2.0 looks like a significant step forward so I'm looking forward to trying it out again.  RegDefend has a growing reputation over at Wilders for being an excellent, and perhaps essential addition to PC protection in this dangerous world.

I'm also looking forward to Jason's views on PC security and software development.

Thanks Jason!

Thanks for the comments guys, much appreciated. :)

I'll also just point out that I do have some freeware applications also :-
