Most people don't know if they are vulnerable to infection by a virus or a hacker until they are infected.

By taking Apocgraphy's free email security test you can test if you are vulnerable to infection before you are infected!

Already completely protected?

Take the test!

How does it work?

Simple. You enter your email address in the test request form and Apocgraphy will send you the test emails. (See: privacy)

Each test email will test a different vulnerability.

For each test you will be provided an explanation of the test and the risks it represents.

Take the test!

Is it Safe?

In a word: "yes".
The tests Apocgraphy sends are 100% harmless.

To test you email security all that needs to happen is that you receive an email that results in a program of the sender's choosing being run on your computer.
It is in no way necessary that that program be destructive, the important thing is that it could have been destructive.

Apocgraphy's tests simply display a warning message, read some information from your computer, place a text file containing this information on your desktop and open this file using Notepad.

This simply demonstrates that security has been compromised so that you don't have to take our word for it.

I already run a virus scanner. Why should I be worried?

Conventional virus scanners.

Conventional virus scanners scan for known viruses. This is why they need to be continually updated. Unfortunately they do not scan for unknown viruses. As a result once a new virus is released into the wild it must be detected by the anti-virus company, a signature created for it and that updated virus database downloaded to your computer.
As a result you have to pay for continual updates. If you don't you are no longer protected.
Even if you do pay, you are still vulnerable for the whole time between the release of the virus and the update being downloaded.

What doesn't get caught.

Most virus scanners just scan attachments. Unfortunately this allows through many things that could be dangerous to open.

One major source of security risk is HTML emails. (Also known as email containing Web content or formatted text.)
HTML can contain many things you don't want in your email such as:

• Scripts that execute when you open the email.
• Commands that download content from the internet when the email is read or previewed.
• Pictures that get downloaded. Which can leak private information, place cookies on your computer, or contain offensive material.
• Programs that get run when the email is read or previewed.

Another source of security risk are security holes in your email reader.
Security holes in your email reader can be used by virus writers and hackers when creating new viruses. Unless you keep up with all the security patches you could be vulnerable.

Apocgraphy's security.

Apocgraphy's security works on the principle that email should be checked to insure that it is safe, not checked if it is known to be dangerous.
For example, most people do not want executable code sent to then via email. Therefore Apocgraphy screens all executable content regardless as to whether or not it is known to be a virus.
Similarly, most people do not want windows being popped open or music played or animations run when they open an email.
Allowing such content opens the window to all sorts of security concerns.
Apocgraphy simply blocks all this content.

Apocgraphy keeps backups of all email before they are modified.
If there is a particular email that Apocgraphy has made safe and you later decide you want the original all you have to do is click on the link provided to read the original unmodified email.

• Apocgraphy's security products are 100% compatible with all existing virus scanners.
  This means that by using one of Apocgraphy's security products you are adding a layer of security to your computer. Your existing virus scanner will continue to scan incoming email just as it always has.
• No ongoing charges.
  You pay a one time purchase price, install, and you are done.
