| The firewall system Frogix is designed by Ho Chi Minh City hacker Mai Trong Cuong and his friends, Nguyen Ngoc Thanh Nghi and Huynh Hai Huynh. Mr. Cuong is currently a Web site administrator of the Vietnam Hackers Association (VHA) Web site. According to its designers, the Frogix software can run in a Linux environment and is capable of protecting computers connected to local and wide area networks as well as the Internet. Meanwhile, the other anti-hacker software submission, Control Network Security Solutions Control Software or Moon Secure is produced by another VHA Web site administrator, Trieu Tran Duc, 23. Mr. Duc is also the current director of the Hanoi IT company, Systems Integration. Moon Secure is a type of shield software that protects servers and station computers from worm attacks and suspicious accesses, said Mr. Duc. The software can automatically detect and destroy viruses and worms, he added. The software is designed to be user-friendly and operated quickly. Moon Secure can also be extended technically to meet specific demands of different users, said Dinh Thi Ngoc Thanh, head of the Ministry of Public Security’s Network Control Department, adding that the software has already been used in some state and foreign offices.
