To assist our website visitors in locating information about internet-relevant security issues, we've compiled an array of resources which we've categorized into four general 'documentation' sections, plus this 'tools' section.

The four documentation sections provide links to offsite information as well as PDF documents downloadable from the CryptGuard site:

• Standards/Governance
• Legislation
• Security
• Other Organizations & Resources

This tools section provides both offsite URL links to websites offering/providing a variety of security related tools, and - wherever possible - a direct download from the CryptGuard website for these, and additional, tool(s) (particularly those that are a "challenge" to find on the toolmaker's website). Please note that there are many other security-related tools available from other websites, whose authors have placed restrictions on redistribution, and therefore we do not make them available here. You can find links to their websites on our Security Resources page.
