About Us
matousec.com was founded by David Matoušek in March 2006 with a small group of young people, mostly university students, who were interested in the Internet, security and other computer related topics. We focus on specific projects but we also offer unique services to software vendors. Our team consists of skilled people with a professional approach. Our experts excel in reverse engineering and low level and security programming for Microsoft Windows systems thus they are also great software testers.
Our main goal is to improve security of end-users with our own security related projects and research. We want to participate in the global security research, support bigger companies and software vendors in their activities, criticize security products and help with their development and testing. We want to establish a respected and reliable company with a positive influence on the global computer security. We also want to help young perspective people to make themselves visible in the endless world of the Internet.

Our very first and flagship project was called Windows Personal Firewalls analysis. Its goal was to raise the quality of the security products that we call personal firewalls and was really successful in it. After two years, this project was replaced with Firewall Challenge and Security Software Testing Suite projects that have the very same goals. Another project we have started is called Nmap Online.
