Welcome to the newly opened, all-new ElcomSoft Blog! In this blog, we shall be covering various issues in the area of computer security.

Fresh life experience…A very good friend of mine told me a story I would like to share with you with her kind permission. Recently she has found a new job in a medium size company. She was perfectly satisfied with her new position and new tasks.
