Secunia – Online Software Inspector

April 6, 2010 – 9:00 am

Secunia’s Online Software Inspector (OSI) inspects your operating system and software for insecure versions and missing security updates.  By ensuring your machine is fully up-to-date you help prevent your software against security issues.

The tool is very easy to use…

  1. Visit the Secunia OSI Website
  2. Click Start Scanner
  3. Look at your results (see example below – click to enlarge)
  4. Download and Install applicable updates

A free PSI (Personal Software Inspector) download is also available for users to receive a more detailed response (when compared to the OSI) regarding how secure their programs/machine is.

I think you’ll all agree that OSI is a neat tool which is well worth doing to ensure the security and safe-running of your machine!
