Version 1.5.0.0 (24th June 2009)
This is a major release, which includes many new features, improvements, and changes that significantly improve the Secunia PSI. We recommend all Secunia PSI users to upgrade. Please also read our blog regarding this release.
New Feature: Secure Browsing
Secure Browsing is without a doubt one of the most important aspects of online security. If your browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, etc.) or its plugins (Adobe Flash Player, QuickTime, Sun Java, etc.) contain vulnerabilities, then you're exposed to security threats every single time you visit a website.
The Secunia PSI can assist you to ensure that your browsing experience is safe and secure.
New Feature: Secunia PSI WorldMap
Benchmark your score against other users from your own continent, country, and region, and see how users from different countries are installing security patches, etc.
"Program Monitoring" on 64-bit Systems
The Secunia PSI now includes a 64-bit driver capable of detecting removal and installation of new programs on 64-bit systems.
Easy Access to Detected Program Changes
The "tray-balloon" that pops up stating if new programs have been discovered allows quick access to the changes. Simply clicking the balloon will automatically take you to the changed entry in the Secunia PSI interface.
Improved Program Monitoring
The automatic monitoring of program installations and updates, along with removal of programs have been improved, thus providing a more responsive detection of changes.
Prompt Before Automatic Launch of Internet Explorer
The Secunia PSI now prompts before opening links that require Internet Explorer, thus ignoring the default browser on a system. For example "Microsoft Update" and installing the Adobe Flash plugin for Internet Explorer.
Automatic Full Rescan on Upgrade
The Secunia PSI will automatically start a new full-scan when you upgrade your Secunia PSI installation. This is to ensure that your results are up-to-date and that you can fully enjoy new features offered by the latest Secunia PSI.
Added Status Indicator
A status indicator has been added to the bottom of the Secunia PSI it informs you about what the Secunia PSI is currently doing, along with general recommendations for improved usage of your Secunia PSI.
Detection of Known Restore/Backup Folders
The Secunia PSI can detect several known restore and backup (e.g. "Windows.old", "i386", etc.) folders on your PC. Furthermore, offering you to quickly create Ignore Rules for these, if insecure programs are found in these folders.
Naturally, it is still a delicate decision between ignoring a detected security issue in such folders and when to actually resolve them.
Enhanced Detection, Assessment, and Remediation of 64-bit Programs
The Secunia PSI is now able to better distinguish between 32-bit and 64-bit programs.
Enhanced Logic for Detecting Problematic Programs
Improved the Secunia PSI's ability to run and get localised for PCs in Asia, Africa, and South America
Implemented ability to detect and assess Firefox plugins
Significantly increased amount of detected ActiveX controls
Added visual indicators for certain tabs
Enabling you see exactly where your attention is required ('Insecure', 'End-of-Life', and 'Secure Browsing')

Several minor bug fixes
Version 0.9.0.0 (Release Candidate 1 - RC1
Completely re-designed interface
The new interface improves; Usability, responsiveness, features, and the presentation of scan results.
Track your patch performance
Graphical overview of current and historic patch-performance 10 weeks back.
Improved user friendliness for less-technical users
Most people naturally wish their PC to be as secure and updated as possible. With this in mind and the fact that some applications are are not always straight forward to update and patch, we have introduced a feature that basically will suppress applications that are potentially hard to patch from the overview pages. The idea is that: It is better to patch just one application than none at all.
The new feature called "Easy-to-patch applications" is enabled by default, but can easily be disabled by users who wish to see all detected applications regardless.
For each detected application there is now a "Toolbox" of features available:
- Direct Download Link
- Solution Wizard
- Ability to request a re-scan of a single application
- Access to Online References
- Technical Details
- Access to application installation folders directly from the PSI
- Ignore Application (easy creation)
- Shortcut to Windows Add/Remove Programs application
Scan progress and details page
- Live updated progress bar when a scan is running
- Live updated step-by-step information when a scan is running
- View when the last scan occurred and when next scheduled scan will take place
- Ability to abort a scan in progress
PSI application settings
- Configurable if the PSI should start on boot
- Configurable if the PSI should monitor your system
- Manage your Ignore Rules
Secunia Profile
- Create your own Secunia Profile to receive special benefits and be the first to participate in upcoming events and gimmicks!
Detection of more applications
The PSI is currently able to detect and check more than 5,500 different applications (major branches).
To clarify, by 1 application we mean ALL versions of a particular application. As an example, our rule for Opera 9.x is capable of detecting version 9.00, 9.01, 9.02, ..[snip].., 9.23, 9.24, 9.50 and so on. This also includes localised and future/not-yet-released versions.
