IPSecuritas
Current Version: 2.2 (October 4, 2006) / 3.4 (October 26, 2009)
Mac OS X includes everything you need to secure your communications using IPSec. Unfortunately, it's not as easy to use as it should be. IPSecuritas is a handy piece of freeware that lets you easily setup IPSec VPN connections to another host or network over the Internet, securing your data with encryption and authentication. IPSecuritas adds a graphical front-end to the built-in IPSec core, allowing you to setup secure communications within minutes. IPSecuritas interoperates with a large and daily growing number of VPN devices, including devices from popular manufacturers such as Cisco, Zyxel, Netgear and more.
Version 3.4 - the latest version for Mac OS X 10.3 or later - contains the following new functions:
- Added connection warning and error indication to menu bar item icon
- Added a traffic graph to the statistics window
- Dashboard Widget is now installed automatically when IPSecuritas is first run
- Visually vamped up Dashboard Widget
- Updated User Manual
- Added new HOWTO descriptions and updated others
IPSecuritas 2.2 remains available for Mac OS X 10.2 or higher.
