• SDelete
  One feature of Windows NT/2000's (Win2K) C2-compliance is that it implements object reuse protection. This means that when an application allocates file space or virtual memory it is unable to view data that was previously stored in the resources Windows NT/2K allocates for it. Windows NT zero-fills memory and zeroes the sectors on disk where a file is placed before it presents either type of resource to an application. However, object reuse does not dictate that the space that a file occupies before it is deleted be zeroed. This is because Windows NT/2K is designed with the assumption that the operating system controls access to system resources. However, when the operating system is not active it is possible to use raw disk editors and recovery tools to view and recover data that the operating system has deallocated. Even when you encrypt files with Win2K's Encrypting File System (EFS), a file's original unencrypted file data is left on the disk after a new encrypted version of the file is created.

• Password Security Scanner enables computer administrators to verify the password security of other users without breaching privacy by revealing the actual user password. The program scans the computer for saved users passwords from various applications, including Outlook, Internet Explorer, Firefox and others, and provides a detailed report of the findings. The report includes the password lenght, password length, type, character types and other details that are related to common password policies. The results can be exported to tex, HTML, CSV and XML format. Password Security Scanner is NOT a password recovery tool, it will NOT disclose the user passwords.

• McAfee Fake Alert Stinger
  Fake-Alert software, also called fake AV or rogue anti-virus software, is malware that masquerades as a legitimate security application. These threats employ social engineering tactics to trick users into purchasing and installing malicious products. Once installed, a system scan will run that subsequently claims that the machine is infected. Other nefarious activity is occurring in the background, including the disabling of legitimate security applications.
  The Fake Alert Stinger uses “Super Scan” mode for detection and remediation targeted specifically at fake-alert threats.
