KeePass
A lightweight and easy-to-use password manager
KeePass Password Safe is a free, open source, lightweight, and easy-to-use password manager for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X, with ports for Android, iPhone/iPad and other mobile devices. With so many passwords to remember and the need to vary passwords to protect your valuable data, it’s nice to have KeePass to manage your passwords in a secure way. KeePass puts all your passwords in a highly encrypted database and locks them with one master key or a key file. As a result, you only have to remember one single master password or select the key file to unlock the whole database. And the databases are encrypted using the best and most secure encryption algorithms currently known, AES and Twofish. See our features page for details. -

mhrv-rs
Rust port of @masterking32's MasterHttpRelayVPN
mhrv-rs is a Rust implementation of the MasterHttpRelayVPN project designed to bypass DPI-based internet censorship and access blocked websites through HTTP relay techniques. The software works by routing traffic through a user-deployed Google Apps Script relay, allowing requests to evade filtering systems while remaining lightweight and inexpensive to operate. The project emphasizes portability and efficiency by rewriting the original implementation in Rust, improving performance and cross-platform deployment possibilities. It supports desktop and Android environments while providing configurable relay behavior through JSON-based settings and deployment scripts. The architecture is intentionally simple, enabling users to self-host relay infrastructure without relying on centralized VPN services. Overall, MasterHttpRelayVPN-RUST serves as a lightweight censorship circumvention and privacy-focused networking tool. -

VeraCrypt
Open source disk encryption with strong security for the Paranoid
VeraCrypt is a free disk encryption software brought to you by IDRIX (https://www.idrix.fr) and based on TrueCrypt 7.1a. It adds enhanced security to the algorithms used for system and partitions encryption making it immune to new developments in brute-force attacks. It also solves many vulnerabilities and security issues found in TrueCrypt. This enhanced security adds some delay ONLY to the opening of encrypted partitions without any performance impact to the application use phase. This is acceptable to the legitimate owner but it makes it much harder for an attacker to gain access to the encrypted data. All released files are PGP signed with key ID=0x680D16DE, available on key servers and downloadable at https://www.idrix.fr/VeraCrypt/VeraCrypt_PGP_public_key.asc VeraCrypt can mount TrueCrypt volumes. It also can convert them to VeraCrypt format. Documentation: https://www.veracrypt.fr/en/Documentation.html FAQ : https://www.veracrypt.fr/en/FAQ.html -

uBlock Origin
An efficient blocker for Chromium and Firefox
An efficient blocker add-on for various browsers. Fast, potent, and lean. uBlock Origin is not an "ad blocker", it is a wide-spectrum blocker, which happens to be able to function as a mere "ad blocker". The default behavior of uBlock Origin, when newly installed, is to block ads, trackers and malware sites through EasyList, EasyPrivacy, Peter Lowe’s ad/tracking/malware servers, Online Malicious URL Blocklist, and uBlock Origin's own filter lists. uBlock Origin (or uBlock₀) is not an ad blocker; it's a general-purpose blocker. uBlock Origin blocks ads through its support of the Adblock Plus filter syntax. uBlock Origin extends the syntax and is designed to work with custom rules and filters. Furthermore, the advanced mode allows uBlock Origin to work in default-deny mode, which mode will cause all 3rd-party network requests to be blocked by default unless allowed by the user. -

Detect It Easy
Program for determining types of files for Windows, Linux and MacOS
Detect It Easy (DiE) is a tool for determining the type and internal features of binary and other file formats. It is widely used by malware analysts, digital forensics investigators, reverse engineers, and security researchers to quickly inspect unknown files and infer their type, architecture, compiler/packer used, and internal structure. DiE supports a large variety of file formats — from common executables (Windows PE, Linux ELF, macOS Mach-O) to archives, mobile packages (APK, IPA), legacy binaries, compressed or packed files, and more — making it a versatile first step in analysis or triage workflows. The tool offers both a graphical user interface as well as a command-line interface, allowing flexible use across environments (desktop, servers, automation). Its detection engine is signature-based, but also includes heuristics that help when signatures are missing or obfuscated. This helps when analyzing packed, compressed, or partially corrupted files. -

SeedCrackerX
Minecraft mod designed to reverse-engineer
SeedcrackerX is a Minecraft mod designed to reverse-engineer and determine a world’s seed by analyzing in-game structures and environmental data. It operates by collecting information from structures such as shipwrecks, temples, and monuments, then using that data to progressively narrow down possible seeds until the correct one is identified. The mod automates much of this process, initiating cracking procedures once sufficient data has been gathered, often requiring only exploration of specific structures. It includes a graphical configuration interface that allows users to control which structures are used and how data is collected. The system can also integrate with a shared database to contribute discovered seeds, enabling collaborative data gathering across users. Advanced features include brute-force algorithms that refine seed candidates based on structural patterns and hashed seed calculations. -

mkcert
Zero-config tool to make locally trusted development certificates
mkcert is a simple tool for making locally-trusted development certificates. It requires no configuration. Using certificates from real certificate authorities (CAs) for development can be dangerous or impossible (for hosts like example.test, localhost or 127.0.0.1), but self-signed certificates cause trust errors. Managing your own CA is the best solution, but usually involves arcane commands, specialized knowledge and manual steps. mkcert automatically creates and installs a local CA in the system root store, and generates locally-trusted certificates. mkcert does not automatically configure servers to use the certificates, though, that's up to you. The CA certificate and its key are stored in an application data folder in the user's home. You usually don't have to worry about it, as the installation is automated, but the location is printed by mkcert -CAROOT. -
