Editor's review of Cerberus Security Guard 2.4
4.0 stars
- "A tough guard dog"
You can quickly toggle important security settings with this efficient tool, but broken English may hamper user comprehension.
Cerberus Security Guard's basic, text and radio button tabbed interface won't win any design awards, but advanced users will quickly figure out all settings. Novices will appreciate that the program's settings are explained in mouse-over dialog boxes. However, some of the dialog boxes read as though a poor English translation program was used.
While many of the settings can be altered through your operating system controls, Cerberus Security Guard gathers the controls into one location. Simple tabs separate settings into five areas: security, services, system, IE/Mozilla, and media player. Most settings can be toggled without restarting your system. This tool's settings can drastically alter your system; fortunately, Cerberus includes a simple settings backup and restore tool.
It will take all but advanced users some time to study the settings before making changes, but every level of user will find this freeware tool very handy.
