Stunnix Perl-Obfus is a unique solution for protecting your valuable intellectual property from possible Perl source code piracy/studying/rework

Stunnix Perl-Obfus is a unique solution for protecting your valuable intellectual property from possible Perl source code piracy/studying/rework. It's an advanced and extremely reliable obfuscator for the Perl source code. It converts the Perl source files (.pl and .pm) into highly mangled and obfuscated forms, making them extremely difficult to study, analyse, reuse, or re-work for competitors or customers, while fully retaining functionality of the original source code. It's not a compiler to machine code, and the obfuscated form will still be the usual Perl source code, and so will work on all platforms the original source worked on.

Magellan Metasearch: A modular meta search engine

Magellan Metasearch is a modular meta search engine, enabling users to monitor as many search engines as they want. It provides a complex query language with standard boolean operators, meta-operators (to search through pages' metadata), and proximity operators. This language enables users to perform far more complex queries than what common search engines currently support. It can be fed any custom sources, since its abstraction layer manages the search results and their meta tags in a uniform way. In conjunction with the local process scheduler (such as "cron"), Magellan enables you to save your requests and replay them later automatically; new results are sent through email and RSS in realtime. Magellan also provides full anonymity through smart multi-proxy support.

UFRaw: A utility for converting and manipulating raw images from digital cameras

UFRaw is a utility for converting and manipulating raw images from digital cameras. It can be used as a stand-alone tool or as a Gimp plugin, and images can be batch processed using the commandline interface. UFRaw reads most existing raw formats using Dave Coffin's raw conversion utility DCRaw, and it supports basic color management using Little CMS, allowing the user to apply color profiles. For Nikon users, UFRaw has the advantage that it can read the camera's tone curves. Even if you don't own a Nikon, you can still apply a Nikon curve to your images.

smtpguard: A tool which controls the flow of email traversing an MTA (Mail Transfer Agent)

smtpguard is a tool which controls the flow of email traversing an MTA (Mail Transfer Agent). It is designed to be used on an SMTP server for incoming mail, and currently supports postfix.

smtpguard was originally created to meet the needs of Internet Service Providers (ISPs). ISP's typically receive tremendous amounts of email from their local (user) network. Within a wide variety of users, some are spammers, many unknowingly have virus infected PC's; each of these can send large quantities of mail through the ISP's SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) servers. This is especially a problem for ISP's who are connected to their users via high speed lines such as fiber or ADSL. smtpguard was developed to prevent SMTP servers from being overwhelmed by unexpected spikes in usage from specific (often malicious) users.

WebTst: A Web development test infrastructure

WebTst is a Web development test infrastructure. It aims to simplify testing by implementing an HTTP and HTTPS capture engine: a Web proxy which records a tester's actions using any Web browser and then replays them during testing. It comes with support for cookie handling, HTTP authentication, concurrency testing, digital certificates, and a number of simple tests, such as cookie setting, pattern matching, response status, and many others. It also provides the concept of result analyzer components and capabilities for maintaining smoke and regression test suites.

T r u e C r y p t: Free open-source disk encryption software for Windows XP/2000/2003 and Linux

Main Features:
  • It can create a virtual encrypted disk within a file and mount it as a real disk.
  • It can encrypt an entire hard disk partition or a device, such as USB memory stick, floppy disk, etc.
  • Provides two levels of plausible deniability, in case an adversary forces you to reveal the password:
    1. Hidden volume (more information may be found here).
    2. No TrueCrypt volume can be identified (TrueCrypt volumes cannot be distinguished from random data).
  • Encryption algorithms: AES-256, Blowfish (448-bit key), CAST5, Serpent (256-bit key), Triple DES, and Twofish (256-bit key). Supports cascading (e.g., AES-Twofish-Serpent).
  • Based on Encryption for the Masses (E4M) 2.02a, which was conceived in 1997.

Comics can be stored in categories, sorted by date or a specified comic order, published, withdrawn, edited, and pretty much anything else you would expect from a file handling system. Included is functionality to build a proto-CMS Web site around the core comic functionality, with additional user and news functionality pre-packaged. Security is the main focus, with salted user passwords, a hotlinking disabler (without modifying your Apache/IIS config) and comic access levels.

XCC: A tool for building XML format parsers

XCC is a tool for building XML format parsers. One way to describe what XCC does is by analogy with a generic parser generator, e.g. yacc or bison. Yacc needs a lexical analyzer to function properly, and that lexical analyzer is usually built with (f)lex. In the XML world, there are a few packages which fill in the role of lex (expat and libxml are the most known), but the high-level grammar parsing is usually done by a hand-written code; writing such a parser is a tedious and error-prone task. XCC was created to help developers in writing reliable easy-to-understood parsers for handling complex XML-based grammars.
