IP Tools and Security is a combination of tools to help you to understand your network's configuration, any potential issues, the availability of the network and its performance.

​

The application never uses the information collected for any privacy violation purpose.

 

Those are the different features:

-Discovery: it discovers the list of devices on the local network. It tries to discover each device's type.

-Ports scan: it scans all TCP ports to check if there are security issues.

-IP connectivity: it gives network information such as IP addresses, DHCP, DNS, etc...

-Speed test: it informs the user about the uplink/downlink speed

-Ping: it checks if a device respond to ping requests

-Traceroute: it collects each IP addresses traversed to reach a target destination. It gives the geographical location (GPS), organization, region and country.  

-DNS: it retrieves the DNS information associated with an IP address and the reverse.

-Malware web sites: it tries to access malware web site to check if the network is protecting you. It only tries to do a connection and then closes the connection.

-Malware: it checks the established connections and warns if there are connections to malware web sites or to botnets' Command and Control servers.

-Packets inspection: it reads the incoming/outgoing data packets to inform the user to which servers he communicates. It NEVER reads the content of the information contained in the packet. 

-Phishing: it is an educational module which verifies if users are not responding to phish attack. The content of the phish email is harmless and under control of the user.

-Backup: it verifies if the right policy is in place for backup of the data. It never accesses the data itself.

-Security summary: it builds a report of all the above functions. Reports can be sent to an email address chosen by the user.

-Settings: it allows settings of the email address for the reports, the network link speed, the packets inspection buffer size and sending comments about issues or improvements requests.

IP Tools and Security Premium Specific Features

The premium version offers the following features on top of the regular version:

​

-Geographical information providing public location of the IP nodes. For example Traceroute allows to visually see on a map all the hops traversed on the route. The information used here is coming by API from a company with whom we have a partnership: ipinfo.io

​

-Malware, Botnets Data Base to verify if the Android device is infected by a malware or a botnet. This information is publicly available but has been computed by us.

 

-Compromised email addresses: the system verifies if an user has ever used his email address to subscribe to a service (email, storage, shopping, etc...) that has been hacked in the past. The user can add manually enter email addresses or import a file cotaining email addresses. The application never violates the confidentiality of the user information such as contacts, photos, files, etc...

The intelligence about the hacking is coming by API from a company named haveibeenpwned.com that we mention publicly.

Webpass Manager (including the Premium version)

Webpass is an application to help users to manage and secure their passwords. The passwords should at least be changed every year. Webpass helps automatize this process and keeps the user's information very secured. All the key information (application's password, web services definition, login name, password, date of change) is kept using both SHA-256 and AES-256 (256 stands for the key length being based on 256 bits). The user's data stays on the device limiting the risk of hackers wanting to attack a web server.

The permissions required are:

​

• Internet: to access the network when the user wants to reset the password, to check if email(s) have been compromised and to give security news

• System alerts: if needed the application can alert the user on some action that requires his attention.

• Calendar access: the read/write access is necessary to manage the events warning the user he/she has to change passwords.
