ntop is a network traffic probe that shows the network usage, similar to what the popular top Unix command does. ntop is based on libpcap and it has been written in a portable way in order to virtually run on every Unix platform and on Win32 as well.
ntop users can use a a web browser (e.g. netscape) to navigate through ntop (that acts as a web server) traffic information and get a dump of the network status. In the latter case, ntop can be seen as a simple RMON-like agent with an embedded web interface. The use of:
* a web interface
* limited configuration and administration via the web interface
* reduced CPU and memory usage (they vary according to network size and traffic)

WebScarab is a framework for analysing applications that communicate using the HTTP and HTTPS protocols. It is written in Java, and is thus portable to many platforms. WebScarab has several modes of operation, implemented by a number of plugins. In its most common usage, WebScarab operates as an intercepting proxy, allowing the operator to review and modify requests created by the browser before they are sent to the server, and to review and modify responses returned from the server before they are received by the browser. WebScarab is able to intercept both HTTP and HTTPS communication. The operator can also review the conversations (requests and responses) that have passed through WebScarab.

P0f v2 is a versatile passive OS fingerprinting tool. P0f can identify the operating system on:
- machines that connect to your box (SYN mode),
- machines you connect to (SYN+ACK mode),
- machine you cannot connect to (RST+ mode),
- machines whose communications you can observe.
P0f can also do many other tricks, and can detect or measure the following:
- firewall presence, NAT use (useful for policy enforcement),
- existence of a load balancer setup,
- the distance to the remote system and its uptime,
- other guy's network hookup (DSL, OC3, avian carriers) and his ISP.

Secure your files and communication w/advanced encryption
PGP is the famous encryption program by Phil Zimmerman which helps secure your data from eavesdroppers and other risks.

The current Linux kernel packet filter/firewall
Netfilter is a powerful packet filter implemented in the standard Linux kernel. The userspace iptables tool is used for configuration. It now supports packet filtering (stateless or stateful), all kinds of network address and port translation (NAT/NAPT), and multiple API layers for 3rd party extensions. It includes many different modules for handling unruly protocols such as FTP.

Amap is a next-generation tool for assisting network penetration testing.
It performs fast and reliable application protocol detection, independent
on the TCP/UDP port they are being bound to.

A web application vulnerability assessment proxy java based web proxy for assessing web application vulnerability.

A secure way to access remote computers
SSH (Secure Shell) is the now ubiquitous program for logging into or executing commands on a remote machine. It provides secure encrypted communications between two untrusted hosts over an insecure network, replacing the hideously insecure telnet/rlogin/rsh alternatives.

SAINT, or the Security Administrator's Integrated Network Tool, uncovers areas of weakness and recommends fixes. With the SAINT® vulnerability scanner, you can:

* Detect and fix possible weaknesses in your network’s security before they can be exploited by intruders.
* Anticipate and prevent common system vulnerabilities.
* Demonstrate compliance with current government regulations such as FISMA, SOX, GLBA, HIPAA, and COPPA and with industry regulations such as PCI DSS.

Libwhisker is a Perl module geared specificly for HTTP testing.
Libwhisker has a few design principles:

- Portable: runs with 0 changes on Unix, Windows, etc (100% Perl)
- Flexible: designed with a 'no rules' approach
- Contained: designed to not require external modules when possible
- Localized: does not require installation to use
