OSINT Framework
OSINT Framework
OSINT-Framework is a web-based intelligence resource map designed to help investigators and researchers quickly locate free open-source intelligence tools and data sources. Rather than functioning as an automated scanner, it organizes hundreds of OSINT resources into a structured, navigable interface grouped by investigation type, such as usernames, email addresses, domains, and social media. The project was originally created from an information security perspective but has since expanded to support journalists, analysts, and digital investigators across many disciplines. Its value lies in curation and discoverability, allowing users to pivot rapidly between relevant intelligence tools during investigations. The framework includes indicators showing whether a resource requires registration, manual editing, or local installation, improving workflow planning. -

OpenH264
Open Source H.264 Codec
Cisco has taken their H.264 implementation and open-sourced it under BSD license terms. Development and maintenance will be overseen by a board from the industry and the open-source community. Furthermore, we have provided a binary form suitable for inclusion in applications across a number of different operating systems and made this binary module available for download from the Internet. We will not pass on our MPEG-LA licensing costs for this module, and based on the current licensing environment, this will effectively make H.264 free for use on supported platforms. OpenH264 is a codec library which supports H.264 encoding and decoding. It is suitable for use in real-time applications such as WebRTC. Constrained Baseline Profile up to Level 5.2 (Max frame size is 36864 macro-blocks). Arbitrary resolution, not constrained to multiples of 16x16. Rate control with adaptive quantization, or constant quantization. -

RustScan
The Modern Port Scanner
The Modern Port Scanner. Find ports quickly (3 seconds at its fastest). Run scripts through our scripting engine (Python, Lua, Shell supported). Scans all 65k ports in 3 seconds. Full scripting engine support. Automatically pipe results into Nmap, or use our scripts (or write your own) to do whatever you want. Adaptive learning. RustScan improves the more you use it. No bloated machine learning here, just basic maths. The usuals you would expect. IPv6, CIDR, file input and more. Automatically pipes ports into Nmap. RustScan is a modern take on the port scanner. Sleek & fast. All while providing extensive extendability to you. Not to mention RustScan uses Adaptive Learning to improve itself over time, making it the best port scanner for you. Speed is guaranteed via RustScan. However, if you want to run a slow scan due to stealth that is possible too. We have tests that check to see if RustScan is significantly slower than the previous version. -

Vuls
Agentless vulnerability scanner for Linux/FreeBSD
Vuls is open-source, agent-less vulnerability scanner based on information from NVD, OVAL, etc. Vuls uses multiple vulnerability databases NVD, JVN, OVAL, RHSA/ALAS/ELSA/FreeBSD-SA and Changelog. Vuls v0.5.0 now possible to detect vulnerabilities that patches have not been published from distributors. 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. -

fsociety
Modular CLI framework for managing penetration testing tools
fsociety is a modular penetration testing framework designed to provide a unified interface for running and managing a wide range of security tools. It focuses on simplifying penetration testing workflows by integrating multiple external security utilities into a single command line environment. Instead of implementing its own security scanners, the framework acts as a wrapper and orchestrator that helps users discover, install, and execute tools from various GitHub repositories. Its modular architecture organizes tools into categories such as information gathering, networking, web application security, and password testing. This structure allows users to quickly navigate through different security tasks while maintaining a consistent interface. fsociety can automatically clone and manage required tools, reducing the manual effort typically needed to set up a penetration testing toolkit. fsociety is distributed as a Python package. -

Algo VPN
Set of Ansible scripts that simplifies the setup of a personal VPN
Introducing Algo, a self-hosted personal VPN server designed for ease of deployment and security. Algo automatically deploys an on-demand VPN service in the cloud that is not shared with other users, relies on only modern protocols and ciphers, and includes only the minimal software you need. And it’s free. For anyone who is privacy conscious, travels for work frequently, or can’t afford a dedicated IT department, this one’s for you. Really, the paid-for services are just commercial honeypots. If an attacker can compromise a VPN provider, they can monitor a whole lot of sensitive data. Paid-for VPNs tend to be insecure: they share keys, their weak cryptography gives a false sense of security, and they require you to trust their operators. Even if you’re not doing anything wrong, you could be sharing the same endpoint with someone who is. In that case, your network traffic will be analyzed when law enforcement makes that seizure. -
