log4cplus is a simple to use C++ logging API providing thread-safe, flexible, and arbitrarily granular control over log management and configuration. It is modelled after the Java log4j API.

ANSI C functions and macros for flexible logging to files and other destinations. It is modeled after the Log for Java library (http://www.log4j.org), staying as close to their API as is reasonable. Intended for use in time-space critical environments

Please note that OWFS source code, and all Issue/Tickets/merge requests have now been moved to https://github.com/owfs/owfs/. Developer mailing lists will still be kept at Sourceforge. ---- OWFS -- 1-Wire file system. Use the Dallas 1-Wire and iButton chips with standard filesystem commands. Create temperature loggers. Monitor everything. OWHTTPD -- same system, only used as a light weight web server. OWFS is also ported to embedded routers, Mac OSX and Windows. Basically you can use these inexpensive little sensors and other chips with very simple wiring to sense and control the physical environment. The interface is very flexible -- everything from a web browser, to read and writing directly to the chip's "file" to integrating with your programs -- even over the internet. There is a growing number of 1-wire sensors: temperature, voltage, humidity, light, ultraviolet, pressure, thermisters, thermocouples, programmable microcontrollers, relays, lights, LCD panels, etc

nload is a console application which monitors network traffic and bandwidth usage in real time. It visualizes the in- and outgoing traffic using two graphs and provides additional info like total amount of transfered data and min/max network usage.

Recursive computing and matching of Context Triggered Piecewise Hashing (aka Fuzzy Hashing). Supports Windows, *nix, BSD, OS X, etc.

syslog-ng is the log management solution that improves the performance of your SIEM solution by reducing the amount and improving the quality of data feeding your SIEM. With syslog-ng Store Box, you can find the answer. Search billions of logs in seconds using full text queries with Boolean operators to pinpoint critical logs. syslog-ng Store Box provides secure, tamper-proof storage and custom reporting to demonstrate compliance. syslog-ng can deliver data from a wide variety of sources to Hadoop, Elasticsearch, MongoDB, and Kafka as well as many others. syslog-ng flexibly routes log data from X sources to Y destinations. Instead of deploying multiple agents on hosts, organizations can unify their log data collection and management. syslog-ng Store Box provides automated archiving, tamper-proof encrypted storage, granular access controls to protect log data. The largest appliance can store up to 10TB of raw logs.

360-FAAR (Firewall Analysis Audit and Repair) is an offline, command line, firewall policy manipulation tool to filter, compare to logs, merge, translate and output firewall commands for new policies, in Checkpoint dbedit, Cisco ASA or ScreenOS commands, and its one file! Read Policy and Logs for: Checkpoint FW1 (in odumper.csv / logexport format), Netscreen ScreenOS (in get config / syslog format), Cisco ASA (show run / syslog format), 360-FAAR compares firewall policies and uses CIDR and text filters to split rulebases / policies into target sections and identify connectivity for further analysis. 360-FAAR supports, policy to log association, object translation, rulebase reordering and simplification, rule moves and duplicate matching automatically. Allowing you to move rules to where you need them. Build new rulebases from scratch with a single 'any' rule and log files, with the 'res' and 'name' options. Switch into DROPS mode to analyse drop log entries.

Rootsh is a wrapper for shells which logs all echoed keystrokes and terminal output to a file and/or to syslog. It's main purpose is the auditing of users who need a shell with root privileges. They start rootsh through the sudo mechanism.

Flexible web-based firewall log analyzer, supporting netfilter and ipfilter, ipfw, ipchains, cisco routers and Windows XP system logs, and mysql or postgresql database logs using the iptables ULOG or NFLOG target of netfilter others mapped to the ulogd format with a view. Fully supports IPv6 for database logs, and netfilter and ipfilter system file logs. Also supports Maxmind's GeoIP version 2 location databases. For Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, OSX,etc.

pcapsipdump is libpcap-based SIP sniffer with per-call sorting capabilities. It writes SIP/RTP sessions to disk in a same format, as "tcpdump -w", but one file per SIP session (even if there is thousands of concurrent SIP sessions). Getting started: http://pcapsipdump.sf.net/

A complete OpenSource Network Management System Is SNMP-Standard Oriented (tested on Cisco and Linux). It Integrates Syslog, Tacacs, RRDtool (Performance Graphs), Maps, Traps, TFTP, Autodiscovery, Sound Alerts, AAA, Modular and Extensible.

It is the same as the basic "ECHO" command, but now.., with COLOR! echo messages in color. http://www.softpedia.com/progClean/Echoc-Clean-207636.html

MyTSMreport is a Project that use a Mysql DB to store the account information from a Tivoli Storage Manager and show them on web pages through PHP scripts in tables and graphs. It do also query toward the TSM DB and store the results in the MySQL DB.

ATTENTION: Snare Lite is unsupported legacy software. While it will remain a part of the SourceForge community, it is no longer secure and compliant. For up to date Snare software check out Snare Enterprise. https://www.snaresolutions.com/try-snare-for-free/ Snare Enterprise was created to keep up with the fast paced security software market. It started with the desire to create premium logging and SIEM tools that were agnostic by nature so they could be used to boost any SIEM architecture regardless of third party developers. In fact, the agnostic nature allows it to bridge gaps between multiple SIEM implementations across business units. For more on use cases, check out the Intersect Alliance website. https://www.snaresolutions.com/ Snare Enterprise’s premium features include: - Regulatory Compliance - TLS Encryption - Log Simulcasting - TCP – Guaranteed Log Delivery - USB Device Monitoring - And more!
