PRoot is a user-space implementation of chroot, mount --bind, and binfmt_misc. This means that users don't need any privileges or setup to do things like using an arbitrary directory as the new root filesystem, making files accessible somewhere else in the filesystem hierarchy, or executing programs built for another CPU architecture transparently through QEMU user mode. Also, developers can use PRoot as a generic Linux process instrumentation engine thanks to its extension mechanism, see...

...Remote scan mode is required to only setup one machine that is connected to other scan target servers via SSH. If you don't want the central Vuls server to connect to each server by SSH, you can use Vuls in the Local Scan mode. Fast scan mode scans without root privilege, no internet access, almost no load on the scan target server. Deep scan mode scans in more detail. It is possible to acquire the state of the server executing some commands. Vuls v0.5.0 warns not-restarting-processes which updated before but not restarting yet. And detect processes affecting software update in advance.

...This is to help teams check early and often for security misconfigurations and DevOps best practices. Some common examples of these include running containers as a non-root user, enforcing least privilege, and storing sensitive information only in secrets. KubeLinter is configurable, so you can enable and disable checks, as well as create your own custom checks, depending on the policies you want to follow within your organization. When a lint check fails, KubeLinter reports recommendations for how to resolve any potential issues and returns a non-zero exit code.

...It runs an ssh-agent compatible service, so existing tools can use the keys without any changes to your workflows. Because the keys never leave the Secure Enclave, even root on the host cannot read them, which raises the bar against credential theft. A simple menu-bar interface lets you create, label, and manage keys, prompt for authorization, and control which processes may request signatures. The design favors least privilege and auditability: you explicitly approve usage and can revoke access without having to hunt for files on disk. ...

User-union is a set of programs for POSIX/Unix/Linux systems that lets you have "union mounts" without special privilege. The result: change requests in one directory are actually performed in a separate parallel directory instead.

Data exchange is a core part of all cloud systems so it becomes necessarily important to control access to data that are confidential and whose integrity influences the state of the system at any time.It can be proven that the administrator in a IaaS can easily perform some hidden and malicious task on unsuspecting customer machine. This is attributed to the fact that he/she possesses the root privilege to do so and forms an attack. A cold boot attack can easily be lauched amongst other attacks by the privilege user or system administrator.A simple attack scenario could be that a customer pays a virtual machine at Amazon EC2 (Provider) and the systemadmin (Privilidged User) who is, for instance, threatened to be fired, has access to the same virtual machine state, this priviledged user can easily leak customer’s data. ...

NTM Is a network traffic monitor for Linux (ubuntu, kubuntu, ecc). Characteristics: Integrate with linux NetworkManager; Autodisconnect when a threshold is reached; Day report; Console and Gui interface (gtk); Not need root privilege;

Micron aims to be a drop-in replacement for Vixie Cron, offering the same feature set with fewer security concerns and a smaller memory footprint.
