Purpose: The goal was to study revision rates and clinical outcome after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction
using the anteromedial (AM) technique versus the transtibial (TT) technique for femoral drill hole placement.
Methods: A total of 9,239 primary ACL reconstruction procedures were registered in the Danish Knee Ligament
Reconstruction Register between January 2007 and December 2010. The failure of the 2 different femoral drilling
techniques was determined using revision ACL reconstruction as the primary endpoint. As secondary endpoints, we used
the pivot-shift test and instrumented objective test as well as patient-reported outcome, registered in the Danish Knee
Ligament Reconstruction Register. Relative risks (RRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. Results: We
identified 1,945 AM and 6,430 TT primary ACL procedures. The cumulative revision rates for ACL reconstruction after 4
years with the AM and TT techniques were 5.16% (95% CI: 3.61%, 7.34%) and 3.20% (95% CI: 2.51%, 4.08%),
respectively. The adjusted overall RR for revision ACL surgery in the AM group was 2.04 (95% CI: 1.39, 2.99), compared
with the TT group. Use of the AM technique increased from 13% of all operations in 2007 to 40% in 2010. AM technique
was further associated with increased RRs of positive pivot shift of 2.86 (95% CI: 2.40, 3.41) and sagittal instability of 3.70
(95% CI: 3.09, 4.43), compared with the TT technique. Conclusions: This study found an increased risk of revision ACL
surgery when using the AM technique for femoral drill hole placement, compared with the TT technique, in the crude
data as well as the stratified and adjusted data. Our finding could be explained by technical failures resulting from
introduction of a new and more complex procedure or by the hypothesis put forward in prior studies that compared with
a nonanatomic graft placement, a greater force is carried by the anatomic ACL reconstruction and, hence, there is
a concomitant higher risk of ACL rupture. Level of Evidence: Level II, prospective comparative study.
outcome, with incorrect tunnel placement cited as the
most common cause of clinical failure.1-3Generally
there are 2 alternatives for femoral tunnel placement:
the anteromedial (AM) approach and the transtibial
emoral tunnel position in anterior cruciate liga-
ment (ACL) reconstruction is critical to a good
(TT) approach. The traditional TT approach for femoral
tunnel placement is limited by the angulation of the
tibial tunnel, which restricts placement of the femoral
tunnel and places the femoral tunnel higher in the
intercondylar notch.4,5To overcome these limitations
created by the tibial tunnel and to increase rotational
stability in the single-bundle ACL reconstruction, the
AM surgical approach to the femoral tunnel was
introduced. Reaming through a medial parapatellar
tunnel in 1995, O'Donnell and Scerpella were the first
to describe an alternative method for femoral tunnel
placement.6Bottoni et al. followed in 1998 by inserting
the femoral guide through the AM portal for better
femoral tunnel placement.7This led to increased use
of the AM portal for femoral drill hole placement owing
to better ability to reach a more anatomical ACL foot-
print.1,8-10By using this AM technique, the surgeon
is able to visualize and position the femoral tunnel

independent of the tibial tunnel. Although it is more
challenging because of the lack of "easy-to-use" guides
for femoral drill hole placement and the necessity for
hyperflexion during drilling, the AM drilling technique
has increased in popularity in recent years as a result
of the trend of anatomic ACL reconstruction.11
Also, cadaveric studies have shown better rotational
stability with AM placement of the femoral canal than
with TT placement.12In several studies, TT placement
of the femoral tunnel has also been shown to be
unable to capture the center of the native femoral
footprint,1,5,11-13whereas the AM portal gives the
surgeon a more unrestricted possibility of placement of
the femoral tunnel.11,13,14Anatomic ACL reconstruc-
tion has also led to increased interest in double-bundle
ACL reconstruction.15However, single-bundle endo-
scopic ACL reconstruction remains the gold standard
and is the most commonly used operative technique for
ACL reconstruction.
The impact of the shift in ACL reconstruction tech-
nique from TT to AM portal femoral tunnel placement
on patient outcome has not been investigated before in
Denmark. The Danish Knee Ligament Reconstruction
Register (DKRR)16has monitored the quality and
development of ACL reconstructions since 2005 and
has registered femoral drilling techniques since 2007.
Therefore, the objective of this population-based cohort
study was to compare the revision rates and clinical
outcomes between AM and TT drill hole placement in
primary ACL reconstruction in the DKRR and, hence,
test the hypothesis of no difference between TT and AM
femoral tunnel position.
This study was designed as a prospective population-
based cohort study using the DKRR linked to the Civil
Registration System (CRS), studying the risk of revision
in the AM technique for femoral drill hole placement
compared with that in the TT technique.
Data Sources
Danish Knee Ligament Reconstruction Register. The DKRR

quality of both primary and revision ACL surgery in
Denmark.16All private (n ¼ 27) and public (n ¼ 24)
hospitals report to this register, and registration is
compulsory according to Declaration No. 459 of June 15,
2006; 85% of all ligament reconstructions have been re-
portedtotheDKRRoverthelast6 years.17Since January
2007, anatomic ACL reconstruction measures such as
femoral tunnel drilling technique and double-bundle
reconstructions have been registered. In Denmark, most
surgeons are subspecialized so most of ACL reconstruc-
tions are performed by surgeons specialized in sports
traumatology, although fellows and residents also
perform this kind of surgery as part of their training.
Detailed preoperative, intraoperative, and 1-year
follow-up data are recorded by the operating surgeon
The mean follow-up time was 1.05 years (95% confi-
dence interval [CI]: 1.05, 1.06). At the 1-year follow-up
visit, the pivot-shift test was performed; patients were
up, patients were asked about complications and if they
had had revision surgery. Furthermore, patients inde-
pendently reported subjective scores of knee function
using the self-assessment score, the Knee Injury and
Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS),18and the Tegner
functional score.19These data are Web-recorded by the
patient before and 1 year after surgery. KOOS scores
higher scores representing better results. KOOS4, a vali-
dated average of 4 KOOS scores (quality of life, sport,
pain, and symptoms), was also calculated.20

Study Population
Denmark has a population of 5.5 million, and free
health care is available to all citizens including general
practitioner visits and hospital visits at medical, surgical,
and psychiatric departments. In this study, we identified
9,239 primary ACL procedures in 9,202 patients from
the DKRR between January 1, 2007 and December 31,
2010. A total of 85 patients emigrated during the
study period. For 20 operated knees, the patients resided
in Greenland, and for 37 operated knees, the nationality
was other than Danish. These 2 groups were not subject
to proper follow-up and were therefore excluded.
Finally, 806 knees (8.7% of the total) were excluded
because of missing information on femoral drill hole
placement. One patient had revision surgery registered
before primary surgery and was therefore excluded. No
patients were registered as emigrated or dead before
revision surgery. In total, we included 8,375 primary
ACL procedures for further analysis.
In this study we investigated the results of the use of
either the AM or TT technique for femoral drill hole
placement on our outcome measures.

as new surgery with exchange of primary ACL. Patients
who were diagnosed with suspected lesions of their
ACL, but did not undergo revision ACL surgery, were not
included as revision outcomes. All primary ACL proce-
dures in the 2 groups were followed up from the day of
if revision occurred, or time of death, or on status date,
The secondary outcomes were parameters of objec-
tive knee stability in terms of instrumented sagittal
knee stability testing (e.g., Rolimeter or KT-1000 tests)
and pivot-shift scores. The pivot-shift test is a dynamic
but passive test of the knee that measures the rotational
and anterior tibial translation stability of the ACL. The
pivot-shift test is graded on a 4-point scale, where
0 ¼ normal, 1 ¼ glide, 2 ¼ clunk, and 3 ¼ gross.21The
pivot-shift data were divided into negative pivot-shift
tests (n ¼ 3,402) and positive pivot-shift tests (n ¼
607). The sagittal stability test measures the difference
in sagittal stability between the operated knee and the
healthy knee. Patients were categorized as having
a side-to-side difference ?2 mm or >2 mm.
Finally, we used patient-related outcomes, the KOOS
to femoral drill-hole placement data. KOOS and Tegner
scores are validated subjective patient-related outcome
scores calculated according to published standards.18,19

Confounding Factors
At time of surgery, we obtained data from the DKRR
on gender, age (?20 and >20 years of age), cartilage
damage >1 cm2present (no/yes or missing data),
operated meniscal damage (yes/no or missing data),
choice of graft (boneepatellar tendonebone autograft
or semitendinosus gracilis autograft), prior surgery to
the knee (yes/no), and activity leading to primary ACL
rupture (sport or other circumstances such as traffic
accidents, an activity of daily living, or a work-related
incident). For meniscal damage we registered the
proportion of treated meniscal damage in each group.
By applying the Kaplan-Meier method we estimated
the revision probability at different follow-up periods in
the AM and TT groups. We used Cox regression anal-
ysis to compare the revision risk after primary ACL
surgery among patients operated with the AM and TT
techniques. We computed
a measure of relative risk (RR) with 95% confidence
interval (95% CI) for patients operated with the AM
compared with the TT technique, both crudely and
adjusted for potentially confounding factors. The
assumption of the Cox regression model was assessed
with use of logelog plots and Schoenfeld residuals and
was found suitable.
Further, using Cox regression analysis we calculated
the adjusted RR of having a positive pivot-shift test or
>2 mm of sagittal instability to the operated knee
compared with the healthy knee in the AM and TT
groups. For the sagittal instability test, we excluded 2
patients who had registered postoperative stability tests
on both knees.
Median values of the KOOS and Tegner scores
preoperatively and 1 year postoperatively for the
patients who underwent surgery using the AM and TT
techniques were compared using the Student t test or
Wilcoxon rank-sum test. The distribution of potentially
confounding factors between the AM and TT groups
was compared (Table 1) using the c-square test. P < .05
was considered statistically significant.
All statistical analyses were computed using Stata
Version 12 (Stata Release 12, College Station, TX). The
study was approved by The Danish National Board of
Health and the Danish Data Protection Agency.

Patient characteristics are outlined in Table 1, and
causes of revision surgery, in Table 2. No statistically
significant difference in cause of revision was found
between the 2 groups using the c-square test.
Over a 4-year period, use of the AM technique
increased from 13% of all operations in 2007 to 40% in
2010. In the AM group, 39 of 1,945 knees were revised,
and in the TT group, 102 of 6,430 knees were revised
over the 4-year observation period. The average time of
follow-up was 22.2 months (95% CI: 21.8, 22.4) for the
whole cohort and 16.2 (95% CI: 15.6, 16.8) and 24.0
(95% CI: 23.6, 24.3) months for the AM and TT groups,
The Kaplan-Meier 4-year cumulative revision rate
was 5.16% (95% CI: 3.61%, 7.34%) in the AM group
and 3.20% (95% CI: 2.51%, 4.08%) in the TT group
(Fig 1). The revision rate was 1.09 (95% CI: 0.65%,
1.85%), 3.28 (95% CI: 2.30%, 4.66%), and 4.71
(95% CI: 3.34%, 6.63%) among patients operated on
with the AM technique compared with 0.44 (95%
CI: 0.29%, 0.65%), 1.78 (95% CI: 1.42%, 2.23%), and
2.57 (95% CI: 2.09%, 3.16%) among patients operated
on with the TT technique, after 1, 2, and 3 years,
Page 4
The crude overall RR for revision surgery in the AM
group compared with the TT group was 2.01 (CI: 1.39,
2.92). The overall RR for revision adjusted for the
mentioned confounders (age, gender, cartilage damage,
operated meniscal damage, choice of graft, prior
surgery to the knee, and activity leading to lesion) was
2.04 (CI: 1.39, 2.99). Furthermore, the adjusted RRs of
revision after 1 and 2 years were 2.32 (CI: 1.17, 4.57)
and 2.04 (CI: 1.33, 3.14), respectively.
The AM technique for drill-hole placement was
associated with an increased risk of positive pivot-shift
test for rotational instability compared with the TT
technique, with an adjusted RR of 2.86 (95% CI: 2.40,
3.41) (Table 3). Furthermore, we observed that the
patients who had the AM technique for drill-hole
placement had an increased risk of having a difference
in sagittal instability >2 mm between the operated and
the healthy knee compared with the TT group, with an
adjusted RR of 3.70 (95% CI: 3.09, 4.43) (Table 3).
Because of a substantial number of missing data at the
1-year postoperative clinical control visit, pivot-shift
and sagittal instability data were recorded only for 49%
and 47% of the operations, respectively. The KOOS and
Tegner scores, both preoperatively and 1 year after
surgery, were comparable in the 2 groups (Table 4).
Stratified Analyses
We conducted stratified analyses on all the covariates
listed above under confounding factors and compared
the risk of revision between the AM and the TT tech-
niques in each group. The AM technique was associated
with an increased risk of revision compared with the TT
technique irrespective of gender, age, cartilage damage,
and meniscal damage. Stratified analyses suggest that
the AM technique is associated with an increased risk of
revision compared with the TT technique among
patients who received hamstring grafts of 2.20 (95% CI:
1.48, 3.27), whereas no association was found (RR for
revision of 0.55%; 95% CI: 0.07, 4.21) among patients
who received boneepatellar tendonebone (BPTB)
grafts. Further, the increased risk of revision for AM
versus the TT technique was confirmed in the group
that had not had prior surgery (RR ¼ 2.49; 95% CI:
1.67, 3.72), whereas no association was seen in the
group that had prior surgery to the knee (RR ¼ 0.28;
This is the first nationwide register-based cohort study
comparing the results of use of the AM and TT tech-
niques for femoral drill-hole placement in primary ACL
reconstruction. Our study showed that introduction of
the AM technique into ACL reconstruction has resulted
in a higher risk of revision ACL surgery than with the
traditional TT technique. Further, AM drill hole place-
ment was associated with more objective instability.
The lack of association between the AM technique and
revision risk among patients who received BPTB graft
and those who had prior surgery to the knee should be
interpreted with caution because of the very few revi-
sions in these groups; a larger cohort will be needed to
clarify this issue.
Our results are in accordance with a meta-analysis by
Alentorn-Geli et al. comparing the TT and AM portal
techniques in BPTB ACL reconstructions.11

obtained a graft revision rate of 5.7% in the AM group
compared with 2.3% in the TT group. However, all
included studies were case series, and none of the
studies was comparative. Some studies have indicated
better rotational stability with the AM technique than
with the traditional TT technique.12,22,23In a cross-
sectional study, Alentorn-Geli et al. showed, in a cohort
of 47 patients, better objective knee stability in the AM
group than in the TT group.10Likewise, in a cadaveric
study, Bedi et al. found better knee stability in the AM
group than in the TT group using Lachman and pivot-
shift tests.12This is in contrast to our cohort study in
which we found that significantly more knees had
positive pivot-shift and sagittal instability in the AM
group than in the TT group. Moreover, Markolf et al., in
a cadaveric study, questioned the rationale of moving
the femoral tunnel from the standard location to a more
oblique position in the notch as no difference was seen
in pivot-shift kinematics in their study.24
Additionally, studies have shown that a greater force
is carried by the anatomic ACL reconstruction than
on a nonanatomic graft placement. Xu et al.25showed
that an anatomic reconstructed AM bundle showed
a significantly higher in situ force than did nonanatomic
high placement of the AM bundle. Hence, a greater load
is carried by an anatomic reconstructed graft, which
makes it more vulnerable than the nonanatomically
placed graft because it transfers more load to other

structures in the knee.25This could be part of the
explanation as to why in our study the revision rate in
the AM group is greater than that in the TT group.
Several problems have been encountered using the
AM technique. In a cadaveric study, Bedi et al. showed
a decrease in tunnel length and an increased tendency
to compromise the posterior wall when using the AM
technique.26On the other hand, they also showed
a greater coronal obliquity of the femoral tunnel.
Likewise, other studies have shown the AM technique
results in significantly shorter tunnel lengths compared
with the TT technique, entailing potential problems
with graft selection, fixation method, and inadequate
amount of graft in the tunnel.27,28Damage to the
peroneal nerve, iatrogenic cartilage damage, or slipping
of the aimer during hyperflexion have also been
described as problems to overcome when using the AM
technique.29Because several technical challenges are
connected to use of the AM technique, we also propose
a learning curve as part of the explanation of our
present findings. Our study period represents a transi-
tion period in which nearly half of the ACL surgeons
learned the AM technique. Despite that, the transition
to the AM technique is an attempt to do more anatomic
reconstructions, but we have no data to show to what
extent this actually was accomplished. One can specu-
late that a proportion of the tunnel placements were
inadequate because of technical problems of poor
Several studies on ACL reconstruction outcome have
We also evaluated patient-related outcome measures to
see if there were any correlations between these and
choice of technique for femoral drill hole placement. Our
subjective scores did not show any significant difference
between the 2 groups, which is in accordance with other
reconstruction,32,33it would be of interest to compare
anatomic single-bundle with double-bundle ACL recon-
struction in large prospective cohorts as in a national
registry. In Denmark, however, surgeons have been
cautious in introducing double-bundle reconstruction,
with less than 1% of reconstructions using the double-
compare single- and double-bundle ACL reconstruction
Whether revision rates improve when the AM portal
technique becomes routine needs to be determined in
future national registry studies. Ongoing monitoring of
the results with the AM approach is therefore necessary
and exemplifies the importance of a national registry.
Methodological Considerations
This study was based on data from a national clinical
the completeness of the data and patient compliance
with on-line subjective patient registrations. Only about
37% of patients reported preoperative, and only 31% of
scores. This could lead to information bias if missing data
onpatient-relatedoutcomes arerelated tobothdrillhole
collection is prospective and registration of primary ACL
is independent of registration of later revision, the risk of
informationbiasisverylimited. Nevertheless, aprevious
validity study showed no difference in patient-related
outcome scores between respondents and nonrespon-
dents in the DKRR (unpublished data). We therefore
ascribed our subjective data a value despite the incom-
pleteness of our data.
In this multivariate analysis we included important
confounders that have previously been associated with
the risk of revision surgery.11,31,34,35These adjustments
did not alter the RR. The sensitivity analysis made for
the 802 missing data showed the same tendency in RR
as the actual analyzed RR, and we therefore concluded
that it did not have any significance with respect to our

shift data were recorded for 49% of operations and

sagittal instability data were recorded for only 47%. The
challenge of getting a large percentage of patients to
clinical follow-up is substantial when dealing with
a national cohort. Again, because of the prospective
collection of data, it is unlikely that the lack of these
data is associated with both drill hole placement tech-
nique and subsequent revision. The 1-year follow-up
examination was, at most hospitals, performed by the
operating surgeon, who was not blinded, which could
result in information bias.
By using revision ACL reconstructions as the primary
outcome in this study, we do not capture all ACL fail-
ures. Some patients accept a chronic unstable knee and
reduce their activities, and others are not suitable for
second operations. Hence, the real number of ACL
failures is probably higher than the number of ACL
revision surgeries. However, there is no reason to
believe that total ACL failure rates and ACL revision
rates differ in the AM and TT groups.
Our study is based on a large sample size ensuring the
high precision of the risk estimates presented. Although
we adjusted for a number of potential confounding
factors, our study, like all observational studies, may
suffer from unmeasured and residual confounding.
For example, data on patients' medication use, physical
activity during the follow-up period, or quality of reha-
bilitation were not available from the DKRR.
Both the crude data and the stratified and adjusted
data from this study indicate that the risk of revision
ACL surgery increases when the AM technique, com-
pared with the TT technique, is used for femoral drill
hole placement. Our finding could be explained by the
technical failures resulting from introduction of a new
and more complex procedure or by the hypothesis
stated in prior studies that a greater force is carried by
an anatomic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction
than a nonanatomic graft placement, and hence, there
is a concomitant higher risk of anterior cruciate liga-
ment rupture.

Man jailed for threatening people with knives on Carlisle streets
Last updated at 11:47, Wednesday, 21 March 2012
A man has been jailed for 18 months after twice being seen threatening people with knives on the streets of Carlisle.
David Sowerby Proud, 23, first waved two knives at a total stranger called Richard Bowles, whom he had mistaken for a man he thought had had a relationship with his wife.
Mr Bowles, who had been on his way to a charity shop, retreated to his car and averted any further trouble.
But, prosecuting counsel Jennifer Blewitt told Carlisle Crown Court, the next day Proud was causing trouble again, this time on Dalston Road.
Two men saw him arguing with his wife, who was backing away from him, apparently "scared out of her wits", Ms Blewitt said.
When he thought they were about to intervene he pulled out two knives, the court heard. The next day, after talking to Proud's wife, the police searched his car and found a metal bar, a machete and half a snooker cue in the boot.
They also found worrying text messages on his mobile, in which he seemed to be threatening to "slash" people, Ms Blewitt said.
Proud, who used to live in Brampton but now has no fixed address, pleaded guilty to affray and three charges of carrying knives in public and having an offensive weapon.
Defence advocate Chris Toms said Proud had been using cocaine since he was 12, and on the day of the incidents had also taken valium and alcohol – making "a very dangerous combination indeed".
He said that even Proud – who was labelled as a "high risk" of harm to the public - was worried by his behaviour.
Jailing Proud for a total of 18 months, Judge Peter Hughes QC said he could have killed someone.
"One only needs to pause and think what could so easily have happened in a confrontation between an innocent bystander and a young man so heavily under the influence of illegal substances," he said.
"It could so easily have been a lethal cocktail."

The political impact of the killings was felt in the election campaign in other States.
As tension remained high in parts of Bodoland Territorial Area Districts (BTAD) in Assam after last week's killing spree in which the death toll has now risen to 31, the Centre said it was an attempt to trigger a full-fledged communal conflagration.
The bodies of two more victims were recovered on Sunday. Angry residents had to be persuaded to bury 18 victims by Siddique Ahmed, Minister of Cooperation and Border Areas, sent to stand in for Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi.
The political impact of the killings was felt in the election campaign in other States.
A day after Jammu & Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah alleged that Narendra Modi was responsible for stoking communal fires in Assam, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee made a similar, but veiled attack on the BJP prime ministerial hopeful.
"Certain comments of some political parties, including the aspirant of high offices are adding fuel [to the violence in Assam]," she posted on Facebook.
At a rally in Nadia district, she said: "Fires would burn throughout the country" if a candidate who talked about driving away certain sections of people, was elected to head the nation.
Campaigning in Bankura in West Bengal, Mr. Modi, however, repeated a line that has been a controversial theme of his campaign in the Northeast: "Illegal Bangladeshi migrants who are being brought to India in the name of vote-bank politics will have to go back to Bangladesh."
Union Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde said in New Delhi that the objective behind the massacre was to trigger a communal conflagration as the victims belonged to a minority community. "These acts started only after the [Bodo] group began steadily losing its cadres either through surrender or eliminations during counter-insurgency operations."

NOTE: Symantec Mobile Security Agent requires a Symantec Mobile Security server in your enterprise that is configured and functional. Please check with your company's IT group before you download this application—it will only operate properly when connected to your enterprise's Symantec Mobile Security server system.
Symantec Mobile Security 7.2 addresses the three capabilities that are integral to any comprehensive enterprise mobile security solution, in a process that is simple, efficient and effective for both IT managers and mobile users.
Antimalware Protection eliminates viruses and malware before they infect your device:
• Device Scan: Automatic antivirus scan for downloaded apps and app updates to protect against threats.
• Device Protection: Detects and removes mobile security threats that cybercriminals use to steal your company's info, spam you with texts, or take control of your device.
Anti-theft and Anti-loss Protection allows your company to remotely locate, lock and wipe your phone if it's lost or stolen:
• Locate device: Symantec Mobile Security can help locate your missing or lost phone using GPS tracking and return a location using Google Maps.
• Remote Lock: Remotely place a security lock on your device with a simple text message so thieves can't access your info or run up your bill.
• Remote Wipe: In case of loss or theft, remote wipe your device to make sure no one can access the confidential and sensitive corporate data from the device.
• Notifications: "Scream" locator lets your company send a ringtone-like command to your missing device that sets off an alarm, so you can find it fast.
Web Protection provides a privacy guard that helps protect you and your company's information:
• Web Filtering: Blocks fraudulent and phishing websites created by cybercriminals to obtain your information that could be used to steal your company credentials or identity.
Certain information is transmitted from the device to your company's server (Symantec does not receive the data, just your company). By downloading this application, you consent to the collection and use of this information as needed.
If you need to uninstall this app from your Android device, go to the "Settings" menu and disable "device admin" prior uninstalling. If "device admin" is enabled, the uninstall procedure will fail.
What's New
Norton Snap qr code reader
QR codes are everywhere—in magazines, on billboards, posters, and more. They make it easy to get information about products or services and to take advantage of incentives and special deals. They can also make it easy for bad guys to attack your mobile device, steal your identity, and mess with your stuff. The problem is, a QR code is a website in disguise and you can't tell if it's safe until after you scan it. And then it's too late.
When you scan a QR code, Norton Snap checks Norton Safe Web for the website's safety rating. It lets you visit trusted sites immediately and blocks dangerous and suspicious sites before threats can be downloaded to your mobile device. A Norton Rating icon shows you if a site is safe or not. Pressing the icon takes you to the full Norton Safe Web site where you can get additional information, including a list of the threats detected and the complete, expanded website address, so you can see where the link really goes before you click it. Norton Snap also lets you send a quick message to friends, so you can share cool sites and promotions with them.
• Automatically scan QR codes and checks to see if they're safe.
• Identify safe websites. Blocks malicious sites before they load on your mobile device.
• View the final destination a QR code is linked to, not just the shortened address, so you know where it really goes.
• Quickly and easily share cool sites and promotions with your friends.
• Tell at a glance whether a site is safe, potentially dangerous, or should be avoided completely.

It complements an enterprise strategy for email encryption and provides mobile users with the ability to access their messages and attachments anywhere, even when offline. Users access their emails through the standard Android mail app, eliminating the need for alternative mail client software or access to the web to read messages.
By using encrypted email, organizations can ensure that no unauthorized users can access encrypted sensitive email on the device. It ensures that the information stays protected until it is decrypted, no matter where it goes, even if the device is lost or stolen.
Users can:
• Decrypt messages encoded in the OpenPGP format
• Decrypt attachments, such as email attachments and PGP/MIME messages
• Verify digital signatures, to ensure that the message has not been tampered
• View messages to see the content
PGP Viewer is a part of the email encryption product family available from Symantec. The email encryption family includes options for desktop email (on Apple Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows systems), gateway email encryption, and mobile devices (including Apple iOS devices).
