Security Task Manager is an advanced task manager that shows a process' rating based on community usage, in order to indicate the potential risk of an intrusive application. It comes packed with a pretty intuitive set of features that should not be difficult to figure out, regardless of previous experience with such software.

The program installs quickly and without any issues. At startup, a list is populated with all active processes, along with their rating, CPU and memory usage, full path, process type, title, description and company name.

Selecting an entry from the list reveals additional rating properties for the process in question. It is possible to open an app's location in Windows Explorer, look it up on Google, verify it for known viruses, write comments, and use a search function to locate a particular program.

Processes can be terminated, sent to the quarantine, or uninstalled directly. The entire information can be exported to HTML or TXT format for closer examination, as well as printed.

Security Task Manager offers multilingual support, has a fair response time and worked well during our evaluation, using minimal CPU and RAM. We have not come across any issues, since the app did not hang, crash or display error dialogs. However, taking into account its features, the tool's price is not justified.

Those who want to bypass the installer and run the tool directly from a pen drive may resort to Security Task Manager Portable.
