Firejail is a SUID program for Linux that restricts the running environment of untrusted applications using Linux namespaces and seccomp-bpf. Written in C with almost no dependencies, it runs on Linux computers with a 3.x kernel or newer. It includes security profiles for many Linux programs, and commands can be prefixed with "firejail" to start a sandbox.
A guide that explains how to harden Linux for security and privacy, covering distributions, kernel hardening, mandatory access control, sandboxing, root account restrictions, firewalls and identifiers. It states that Linux is not a secure operating system and that the guide is distribution-agnostic and focused purely on security and privacy.
Lockdown Privacy offers a firewall and a Secure Tunnel VPN for blocking trackers, ads and badware in apps. The firewall is described as open source and on-device. The site states the products are Openly Operated and provide transparency into data handling. The listing covers iPhone, iPad and Mac.
SuspiciousPackage is a Linux, macOS, BSD, or Unix resource for tools, documentation, communities, or system workflows.
MailTrackerBlocker is an extension and plugin for Apple Mail on macOS that blocks email trackers, read receipts and spy pixels. It labels who is tracking you and strips spy pixels from HTML before display, so disabling remote content loading is unnecessary and images can be shown. Supported on macOS 14.3+ as an extension and macOS 10.11-13.x as a plugin.
KextViewr is a macOS utility that displays all currently loaded kernel modules (kexts), showing information such as collection, size, address and architecture. It offers a UI alternative to Apple's kmutil with filter, search and JSON export capabilities, and requires the com.apple.private.kernel.get-kext-info entitlement. Supported on macOS 11 and later.
gocryptfs is a free file-based encryption tool implemented as a mountable FUSE filesystem, storing each file as one corresponding encrypted file on disk. Encrypted files can be kept in any folder, a USB stick or Dropbox, and file-based encryption allows efficient synchronisation with tools like rsync. Linux is fully supported and macOS support is beta quality.
