BackupAssist version 8 The Aussie developers over at BackupAssist have been hard at work on the latest major release of their popular backup software for small businesses, and I'm pleased to be letting you know it's now available for download. This release is packed with new features and in this post we'll pick out both the highlights and a couple of important notes you should be aware of.

Product review by ITSMDailyIndependent analyst and security director for EncSec, Graeme Batsman has appeared in, and advised, publications including SC Magazine, The Independent, Microsoft, Metro, Experian and many more. Graeme had recently been testing a number of email security products including those from vendors such as Barracuda and Sophos when we contacted him about 'hot off the press' SecurityGateway version 3.0.

First launched back in 2008, SecurityGateway is the brainchild of Texas-based Alt-N technologies, developer of the popular alternative to Microsoft Exchange, MDaemon Messaging Server. When Alt-N realised that even users of Exchange were buying MDaemon to use as a pre-filter because of how well the spam and virus protection performed, it wasn't long before they took the decision to release a standalone, purpose-built product....enter SecurityGateway.

MDaemon maintenance releaseMorning folks, just a quick one to let you know Alt-N Technologies have just released an update for MDaemon Messaging Server and it includes some highly recommended security updates among other things. Those other things... In 14.0.2 you'll find a raft of tweaks and improvements along with a couple of minor branding changes. The more observant of you may notice that WebAdmin is now referred to as "MDaemon Remote Administration" and ComAgent is now the "WorldClient Instant Messenger". You'll also find some usability tweaks in Worldclient such as the ability to nickname favourite folders.
