Outsmart hackers

Two weeks ago, we looked up a site, www.antionline.com, in the context of hackers, viruses and assorted dangers to your computer. Here's another site that helps arm you against trouble with information on anything that compromises the safety of your computer.

www.securitywire.com

Another site with the stated mission of protecting the unsuspecting Netizens from the designs of hackers, this spot is a veritable treasure trove of information on hacker techniques and jargon, viruses, phreaking, and many other forms of security breaches that you probably weren't even aware of.

The site is neatly divided into various information channels on topics such as cryptography, operating systems, programming, news, and more, the layout being an added advantage.

The site also offers security services for those interested, and a free e-mail archive, besides news takes from Slashdot, one of the top resources on everything on computing and the Internet.
