Protect Yourself from Bad Apps with Guard Dog
In the wake of the recent furor over the Liberty Crack trojan horse, McAfee has released Guard Dog for Palm, that prevents rogue applications from viewing, stealing or deleting data. It lets users decide what applications are trustworthy and prevents those that are not from accessing sensitive information. It also continuously monitors the device, searching for specific actions and immediately notifying the user of any strange or malicious behavior. This available now and is a free addition to their wireless security center, a subscription to which costs $29.95 per year.
Guard Dog for Palm looks for application launches, infrared beaming, power on/off events, database and record creation/deletion, password monitoring, and preferences changes.
