SoftPerfect WiFi Guard is an essential tool for everyone running a small WiFi network and striving to keep it secure. Generally, modern WiFi networks are well protected, but there is a number of weaknesses that can compromise your WiFi password; this includes vulnerabilities in encryption and brute force attacks. As a result, someone can gain unauthorised access to your Internet and LAN, exploit them and stay unnoticed.
You may think: it's ok, who cares, I have got an uncapped plan. But what about someone reading your personal emails, stealing private information or breaking the law online while using your Internet connection?
Here comes our little application that allows you to know immediately if your network is used without your knowledge. It's a specalised network scanner that runs through your network at set intervals and reports immediately if it has found any new connected devices that could possibly belong to an intruder.
Key features
Pings computers and other network devices and displays those alive.
Detects firewalled computers that do not respond to ping.
Scans your network at a specified interval.
Immediately alerts you if an unknown device is found.
Runs on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux.
Absolutely free, has a portable edition, and does not contain any adware, spyware or malware.
Changelogs:
Added showing friendly network adapter names on Mac OS X.
Added getting page titles from HTTP enabled devices.
Added device manager allowing to see all devices ever detected.
Fixed detecting the default gateway on all platforms.
Fixed getting MAC addresses on Mac OS X.
