Advisory Check is a tool for monitoring the security of installed software. It gathers security advisories using RSS/RDF/XML feeds, compares them against a list of known software, and alerts you if you're vulnerable. Let advchk read advisories for you!

Automated Incident Reporting (AirCERT) is an Internet-scalable infrastructure to automatically receive, process, and analyze security event information reported from across administrative domains.

Alfandega is a strong and Modular IpTables Firewall. It provides NAT, port-forwarding, spoofing list, blacklist of crackers and spywares sites, protection for tcp/udp scans, DOS/DDOS and Smurf attacks, TCP tuning, DHCP and PPP support and much more.

Released under 'Creative Commons v3' license Alien Cipher is an endeavour to build my own symmetric cipher. The primary aim is to simply learn the fundamentals and finer details of cryptography in general and build working examples of my ideas in code. The code is shared here for posterity (future folk) in the guise that it may help others also on the path to cryptography. This code demo uses a 256bit rolling hash table (8x8bytes) at its heart to mix together pre-defined parameters in a way that allows the cipher to produce encoded output that is locked to a key of arbitrary length without padding. Based upon some random data points the cipher produces encoded output that is non-deterministic in nature, the same key and message will never produce the same output each time it's run. The cipher attempts to render output that is resistant to several types of analysis although this has yet to be proven. Please note that I make no claims to this being safe. Cheers o7

Alist is a program that collects hardware and software information about systems and stores it in a database for users to browse and search via a Web interface. The program consists of three parts: a client portion that collects the information, a daemon

A library implementing the AES (American Encryption Standard) or Rijndael algorithms, intended to provide a neat packaged solution for other projects to use. Package includes C and Intel Pentium/MMX assembler versions of AES, along with an extensive

Apache::AppSamurai is a mod_perl based authenticating reverse proxy/application front end designed to protect applications from direct Internet attack.

Ariesbot, is an ircbot, which will be able of doing basic bot functions such as op/deop/kick/ban/moderate. Plus being able to Wu-Ftpd scans, cgi/php scans port scans, subnet scans and scan for vuln version of apache to nosejob.c.

The goal of the project is to build a framework to allow Astaro firewall users to install optional software packages on their firewalls. (Astaro is a Linux-based firewall available from www.astaro.com.) Such a framework includes a package-management syst

Authdefender is a filtering application that, in combination with iptables, blocks malicious users from accessing any aspect of the server in question. Malicious users are defined by brute force ssh/ftp attempts and blocked regardless of tcp wrappers.

Authen::Simple::WebForm - Perl library for simple authentication against existing web based forms using Authen::Simple framework.

Automaton: An Automated Forensic Auditing, Security & Control Framework

BGPWatch is a Linux and BSD background process monitor written in Perl. It is useful for controlling how many processes each user has running , what processes they are running, and what they are allowed to run.

The Bro Re-usable Architecture (BRA) is a project by Christopher Jay Manders that will allow one, with minimal effort, to set up a working Bro (real-time intrusion detection) environment.

BlockSSHD protects computers from SSH brute force attacks by dynamically blocking IP addresses by adding iptables rules.

BoCrypto encrypts/decrypts files using one-time-pad keys. Mersenne Twist PRNG is utilized for the key stream. Features enc/dec benchmarking as well as 'duress' key generation. OTP encryption is the only unbreakable encryption, if implemented correctly.

BogoSec is a utility that calculates source code security quality metrics. A flexible framework interprets the results of existing scanners to compute these metrics. BogoSec is useful to track security quality across releases and competing packages.

BoringSSL is a Google-maintained fork of OpenSSL, designed specifically to meet the security, performance, and maintainability needs of Google’s infrastructure and products. While fully open source, BoringSSL is not intended for general public use — it serves as a streamlined, heavily modified SSL/TLS and cryptography library optimized for Google’s internal ecosystem, including Chrome/Chromium, Android, and other Google services. The project prioritizes security, simplicity, and maintainability over backward compatibility. Unlike OpenSSL, BoringSSL provides no guarantee of stable APIs or ABIs, meaning third-party projects depending on it may frequently break. Google products that use BoringSSL ship their own copies and update them as needed, enabling faster iteration without legacy constraints. BoringSSL includes comprehensive API documentation, build instructions, and guidance for porting code from OpenSSL.

Perl-based syslog watcher that matches certain login failures (SSH, FTP, POP3) and can dynamically block and email an alert, helping to monitor and manage hosting servers. NOTE: Although no recent updates, I'm still able/willing to update this code.

A set of tools, many written in C, to deal with BRO (www.bro.ids.org). and its working environment.

Simple Intrusion Detection System which monitors failed access (SSH and Dovecot) attempts. If hack attempt is detected above the configurable threshold level then a number of actions are taken to block the IP and alert administrators of the attempts.

Buffer0verfl0w Security is a team of skilled security developers, who are authoring security applications, whitepapers, and discovering security flaws in software, publicly disclosing their projects and encouraging volunteers to help improving them.

These three tools build Checkpoint, Cisco ASA or Netscreen policys from logfiles. They write dbedit, access-list or set address, set service and set policy commands for the traffic seen in the logs, that can be cut and pasted into the firewalls. WOOT

This software is a set of tools that hides C source code in txt files. Also the software is able to restore the txt files to C source code again. This work is based on the tool c2txt2c by Leevi Martilla. Csteg needs a book file in txt format to hide C so

Helper web application writen in PhP and Perl to mantain local Certificate Authority based on openssl. Provides ability to view issued certificates, issue new certificates, revoke compromised certificates.
