Russh
Rust SSH client & server library
Russh provides a Rust library for implementing SSH clients and servers with a modern, async-friendly design. It exposes building blocks for authentication, channel management, port forwarding, and key handling, allowing you to embed SSH functionality directly into Rust applications. The API is designed to be explicit and composable, making it possible to implement custom behaviors like reverse tunnels, interactive shells, and service multiplexing. Because performance and safety are central, the code leverages Rust’s type system to reduce classes of runtime errors common in network protocol implementations. The project also includes examples and discussion threads that show how other tools integrate it for web-based clients or gateway services. For teams building terminals, proxies, or embedded management planes, it offers a robust foundation without shelling out to external binaries. -

Tabby Web
An SSH/Telnet/Serial client in your browser
Tabby Web brings a modern terminal experience to the browser by pairing a web UI with a backend gateway that brokers TCP connections over WebSockets. It aims to deliver an experience similar to the desktop Tabby terminal—sessions, profiles, and rich configuration—while being accessible anywhere through a login. The architecture splits concerns: a Django-based control plane manages users, auth, and configuration, while a gateway service handles network transport so browser clients can reach SSH, Telnet, or serial targets. This separation enables multi-user deployments with persistent settings, role-based access, and storage backends for artifacts. It’s useful for organizations that need managed remote access from within a web portal, without installing a full desktop client on every machine. With its focus on admin ergonomics and end-user UX, Tabby Web turns terminal access into a managed, auditable, and scalable web application. -

HPN-SSH is a series of performance patches for OpenSSH. By addressing network limitations and CPU limitations significant throughput performance can be realized. Gains of close to two orders of magnitude are possible on long fat network paths. The official git repo is now available at http://github.com/rapier1/openssh-portable. The Sourceforge repository should not be seen as the canonical repository for HPN-SSH. We will update it as we can but users should look to github to generate patches We also support Ubuntu packages. Add them to your package manager with `sudo add-apt-repository ppa:rapier1/hpnssh` Fedora RPMs can be added with, `sudo dnf copr enable rapier1/hpnssh`

Compassh
the OpenSSH VPN, without the VPN
Compassh is an helper for the popular OpenSSH remote connection software, focused on providing near-VPN service without the complexity and the setup required by a real VPN. Using a VPN software may require an ad-hoc firewall setup, the generation of a key (pair) and the installation of the VPN software on a host that is not under your control. Compassh try to solve as much of this problems with a smart use of OpenSSH. -

Kippo-Graph
Full featured script to visualize statistics from a Kippo SSH honeypot
Kippo-Graph is a full featured script to visualize statistics from a Kippo SSH honeypot. It uses “Libchart” PHP chart drawing library by Jean-Marc Trémeaux, “QGoogleVisualizationAPI” PHP Wrapper for Google’s Visualization API by Thomas Schäfer and geoPlugin geolocation technology (geoplugin.com). Kippo-Graph currently shows 24 charts, including top 10 passwords, top 10 usernames, top 10 username/password combos, success ratio, connections per IP, connections per country, probes per day, probes per week, ssh clients, top 10 overall input, top 10 successful input, top 10 failed input and many more. There are also geolocation data extracted and displayed with Google visualization technology using a Google Map, a Intensity Map, etc. Lastly, input-related data and statistics are also presented giving an overview of the action inside the system and there is live playback ability of captured sessions. -
