Data, Security & IT

Clean data and safe systems are what the tools in this category work toward. Some let you ask questions of large spreadsheets, clean up CSV exports or convert map files. Others track who has which laptop or licence, watch your domain and certificates, compare antivirus products or check where a statistic comes from. A few new tools stop AI coding assistants from running risky commands.

Where your data goes is the first thing to look at. Some tools work in your browser or on your own computer, while others upload files to a server, which matters for customer data and company secrets. Check what access a tool needs and keep it as small as possible. For security products, look for independent test results rather than the vendor's own claims.
