Anti-Virus Apps

Though many say that “the best anti-virus is common sense,” that can’t always protect from an accidental late night popup click or other similar circumstances. Mistakes happen. For those moments, the peace of mind that anti-virus software such as Avast or Avira can provide by responding quickly to any potential virus, trojan, or other malicious software may very well be worth it, especially to those that are not the most tech literate in your life. This page can help you make an informed decision about which anti-virus software to try.

Bypass Censorship Tools

The Internet can provide unprecedented freedom of information, but in some nations throughout the world, this is not nearly guaranteed. That’s where networks such as Tor come in. These networks allow users in nations where Internet access is severely limited or censored to circumvent these restrictions and access the information that many believe to be a human right to access.

Disposable Email Services

There are several reasons why you might need a temporary email address that you can “throw away” once you’re done with it. Perhaps you want to sign up at a website but are afraid to get spammed for all eternity if you would leave your regular mail. For this purpose, you need a disposable email address. These can often forward the mails to your normal account, but – and this is important – stop doing it when you tell it to. Below, you’ll find a list of the most popular temp email services you can use to keep your regular inbox clean and tidy. Read the product description and our user reviews to find the best solution for you.

Encrypted Email Services

Modern email clients make professional and personal communication more convenient than ever before. That being said, some of the most popular email clients, such as Gmail, aren’t as secure as some would like. That’s where the email service providers on this page, such as ProtonMail, come in.

End-to-End Encryptions

Ensuring that no one outside of who you’re having a conversation with is a hallmark of true privacy. These apps ensure that all data is protected from your end to the recipients, and not able to be read by anyone else.

File Encryption Tools

Your personal data is just that: Personal. And that personal data should be able to withstand any attempts to be accessed by brute force attacks. The first step to ensuring this is to make sure it is properly encrypted. Software such as VeraCrypt is designed to protect the data on your hard drive so that, in the event that an attacker or thief gains access to your personal belongings, they are unable to see any of the photos or documents that are on your computer.

File Shredders

When files are deleted (and even emptied from the recycle bin or trash) off your hard drive, they could still potentially be recoverable if someone were to gain access to it. These apps ensure that data is truly wiped from the storage device from whence it came.

Parental Control Tools

New and expecting parents have more things to consider when letting their children grow up in terms of what content they can be exposed to. Parental supervision is often only so finite when it comes to the nearly infinite content the Internet can provide. That’s where these apps come in to help. Software like K9 Web Protection implements content filtering so kids can only access the websites their parent or guardian approves.

Password Managers

With more and more services requesting that you make an account popping up seemingly every month, and all of them recommending that you use unique passwords that aren’t used on other services (good advice, of course!), trying to keep track of them all can quickly become overwhelming. That’s one of the main reasons that password managers such as LastPass and 1Password have become as popular as they have. These password management apps will allow you to securely store all of the different passwords you use for the multitude of services you use in your daily life, with no need to remember crazy and complex combinations.

Password Recovery Apps

Lost passwords are some of the most common reasons that users lose access to their accounts. These apps ensure that, even if our memories do fail us, we have recourse.

Phone Trackers

Sometimes, users would like as much information about the current location and situation that a smart device is currently in. Imagine losing your phone in a taxi cab while vacationing abroad, or leaving your phone in your hotel room after your big business meeting. That’s where these phone tracking apps can come in. Apps such as Find My iPhone for iOS devices and Prey Anti Theft for Android devices can make all the difference between your personal information and device possibly being stolen or finding it safe and sound.

Photo Recovery Tools

We’ve all been there: Spring cleaning needless photos off our phones to reclaim some storage space, and then WHAM, that was a wedding photo that you didn’t mean to delete and hadn’t backed up to OneDrive or Google Photos or your external hard drive. However, you didn’t even realize this until after you emptied the trash or recycle bin of your computer! Things seem bad, but that’s where these image recovery apps come in. Utilities such as Disk Drill and PhotoRec are specifically designed to recover images that have accidentally been deleted. If all else fails and the photo you’re desperately searching for is nowhere to be found on any of your online or offline backup solutions, make sure to try the software on this page!

Privacy Protection Apps

Your privacy in today’s Internet connected and dependent world isn’t always a guarantee without the right software. From secure operating systems that respect your privacy such as many Linux distributions, to web browser add-ons that block cross-site tracking and advertising such as uBlock Origin, software focused on protecting your privacy when using the Internet today is arguably a must.

VPN Services

Internet surveillance has come under the spotlight in recent years, with a renewed interest from users in ensuring their privacy is ironclad. One of the biggest pieces of the puzzle is your Internet Service Provider. If they log your webpage access history and sell it to advertising firms, for example, many would consider that a serious breach in privacy. That’s where Virtual Private Networks can come in. VPNs allow you to create a secure connection to a remote computer in a private network, meaning that your Internet usage will be private between you and the computer or service you are remotely connected to. With free and open source solutions such as Tor and OpenVPN, there has never been a better time to take advantage of the privacy and security that VPNs provide.
