Added new product: Virtual Disk SDK is a library for software developers that allows to create virtual drives and disks, format them to FAT or NTFS or other file system, and mount as if they were physical devices without having to write low level driver code. Using Virtual Disk SDK requires no experience in kernel mode programming on your behalf since Virtual Disk SDK provides you with powerful user level API.

2009-Nov-06

Local Network Monitor and Local Network Monitor API 3.1.0 released:

  1. Windows 7 support
  2. Filtering rule ID is replaced with Filtering rule priority. Each rule has its unique identifier or in other words usage priority (from 0 to 65535). Identifier determines the order of application of rules to a network connection. The smaller is the priority value of a rule, the higher is its priority and the faster it will be applied when analyzing network requests. The analysis is stopped when there is a security rule strictly determining whether the network connection should be processed or passed thru.
  3. TCP connection and UDP listeners table quering.
  4. Processes' TCPIP statistics quering.
  5. User notifications.The possibility to handle and modify network requests in user-space application.
  6. New samples:
    • netstat - shows TCP active connections and listen sockets and UDP listeners.
    • redir - redirects the outgoing TCP connection to another distination IP address.
    • wwwblock - blocks all the outgoing HTTP traffic using the pattern.
    • procstat - shows the running processes' TCP and UDP send/receive bytes statistics.
  7. Attn. starting from v3.0 Local Network Monitor operates with ip address and port number in network byte order.
  8. Attn. starting from v3.0 Local Network Monitor proc...more

Local Network Monitor and Local Network Monitor API 2.2.3 officially released. New features:
Monitor:
- Windows Vista x86/x64 support. Windows Vista x64 support is experimental and limited due Windows Driver Signature Enforcement. Local Network Monitor driver is signed with test certificate that is not trusted by Windows. To run Local Network Monitor on Windows Vista x64 you should switch off Driver Signature Enforcement in Local Network Monitor installer or during system boot (you should press F8 during system boot and choose Disable Driver Signature Enforcement option).

API:
- Windows Vista x86/x64 support. For Windows Vista and later versions of the Windows family of operating systems, kernel-mode software must have a digital signature to load on x64-based computer systems. Local Network Monitor driver is not signed and in order to test them on Vista x64 you should press F8 during system boot and choose Disable Driver Signature Enforcement option. For the commercial software you'd have to obtain Code Signing certificate from Verysign.
