Security Onion

Malcolm is an open source security monitoring platform designed to help security professionals collect, process, and analyze network data for threat detection and incident response. It integrates multiple powerful tools to gather and visualize network traffic, log data, and security alerts. Malcolm’s user-friendly interface allows security analysts to easily investigate potential threats by providing detailed insights into network activity. It is designed for scalability, offering flexible deployment options across various environments, from small businesses to large enterprises. Malcolm’s modular design ensures users can customize the platform to suit their specific security requirements, while its integration with other observability tools ensures comprehensive monitoring. While Malcolm is great for general-purpose network traffic analysis, its creators see a particular need in the community for tools providing insight into protocols used in industrial control systems (ICS).

Lokinet is a decentralized onion router that enables anonymous internet access by leveraging the Oxen service node network as relays, providing market-based Sybil attack resistance through the Oxen blockchain. It supports web browsing, onion-routed real-time voice communications, and other applications without requiring specialized software or custom patches. Unlike Tor, Lokinet operates on the network layer, allowing it to onion-route any IP-based protocol, including TCP, UDP, and ICMP, facilitating activities such as media streaming and video conferencing. Lokinet's infrastructure is built on the Low-Latency Anonymous Routing Protocol (LLARP), designed to address issues present in other networks like Tor and I2P. The Oxen Name System (ONS) provides human-readable, globally unique mappings to cryptographically secure long-form .loki addresses, stored and indexed on the Oxen blockchain. Lokinet clients are available for Windows, Linux, and macOS.
