PFCLScan Articles

Originally the PFCLScan product was hosted on its own Wordpress website at the domain pfclscan.com but we have decided to bring the PFCLScan content back into the main PeteFinnigan.com Website after it was very nicely re-designed at the start of 2017; hence this page.

Most of the resources on PFCLScan.com could be copied to PeteFinnigan.com as new pages and re-directed from the old PFCLScan.com website BUT this left the old blog posts to deal with. The old blog posts could have been posted again to the PeteFinnigan.com Limited blog page but this did not feel right as some of the PFCLScan blogs were from some time ago. Therefore we decided to move thos old blogs to PeteFinnigan.com as new static pages but to gather them all together here as an articles page

Any new blog posts about PFCLScan will be posted to the PeteFinnigan.com Oracle Security blog but we may also add specific new articles here where perhaps they are bigger than a blog post or deserve to stand in their own right.

Here are the article links from the old PFCLScan product site (Note: slight edits may have been made to allow for the new home here):
