Accessibility of certain security and monitoring products

Hello all, I would appreciate comments from anyone who has used any of the following security-related products. I am particularly interested in their accessibility or lack thereof and any workarounds that you had to develop to get things done. Links included for the curious. Nessus Scanner By Tenable: http://www.tenable.com/products/nessus Web interface works best using NVDA and Firefox; reports can be exported as csv. Cisco Security Monitoring, Analysis, and Response System (MARS): http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/security/security-monitoring-analysis- response-system/index.html HP ArcSight SIEM: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/software-solutions/siem-security-information-event- management/ NfSen: http://nfsen.sourceforge.net/ Unsure of accessibility; other CLI tools such as nfdump are available for intercepting and extracting netflow data. TippingPoint Security Management System: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/software-solutions/software.html?compURI=1344453#.U 95ick10yig Nagios - The Industry Standard in IT Infrastructure Monitoring: http://www.nagios.org Uses Perl or shell scripts for plugins, unsure of accessibility of web interface. Thanks in advance for any information, Chris

Updating windows8 to 8.1 update1

Hello, This is probably an easy one to some, but I'm new to win8. I got a copy of it about a year or so ago got it in a vm, and then my VMware busted. Well, long story short got it fixed, and am now back with 8 learning, and I've been told that 8.1 is a major improvement over 8, is this so? Secondly, update1 is almost a must have. I'd like to get both of these, they're not coming through windows update. My screen reader if it matters is NVDA 2015.1. Thanks. Dave.

Have any of you used SQL 2014 yet? IF so, what's the accessibility like? I need access to the usual things. 1. Can I read the results of updates and inserts. 2. Can I read the result grid view from a select? 3. Can I read the job viewer results? 4. Can I start a job at a specific test? 5. Can I create users and logins? 6. Can I modify agents such as the Email service?
