Santa is an open source Linux, macOS, or Unix resource with code, tools, or setup notes.
OverSight is a macOS tool that monitors a Mac's microphone and webcam, alerting the user whenever either is activated or deactivated. It requires macOS 12 or later and administrative privileges to install and run. The project is open source and can alert even when the system is already infected, though in some cases it cannot identify the responsible process.
RansomWhere? is a macOS utility that analyzes file entropy to identify encryption activity and detect untrusted processes creating encrypted files. It suspends suspect processes and alerts the user, who can allow or block them. It runs on macOS 10.15 and later.
1Blocker is a Safari ad blocker for iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Vision Pro. It blocks ads, trackers and other unwanted web content, with over 120,000 built-in blocker rules. Filtering is done locally on the device, and settings sync over iCloud. Multiple filters cover ads, privacy, annoyances and adult content.
GPG Suite is a macOS package that includes GPG Mail, GPG Keychain, GPG Services and MacGPG for OpenPGP key management. GPG Mail 8 for macOS Golden Gate is in beta and requires an active GPG Mail 7 Support Plan; from GPG Mail 8 the Support Plan becomes a yearly subscription. Some features are still missing.
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.
Whoami is a privacy and anonymity tool for Debian and Arch based Linux distributions. It uses multiple modules to keep online activity private, does not track users or keep logs, and offers a command-line interface with auto-complete and history-based suggestions. The documentation page is marked as coming soon.
