UFTP
Encrypted UDP based FTP with multicast
UFTP is an encrypted multicast file transfer program, designed to securely, reliably, and efficiently transfer files to multiple receivers simultaneously. This is useful for distributing large files to a large number of receivers, and is especially useful for data distribution over a satellite link (with two way communication), where the inherent delay makes any TCP based communication highly inefficient. The multicast encryption scheme is based on TLS with extensions to allow multiple receivers to share a common key. UFTP also has the capability to communicate over disjoint networks separated by one or more firewalls (NAT traversal) and without full end-to-end multicast capability (multicast tunneling) through the use of a UFTP proxy server. These proxies also provide scalability by aggregating responses from a group of receivers. -

conky
Light-weight system monitor for X
Conky is a free, light-weight system monitor for X, that displays any kind of information on your desktop. Conky is free software and runs in X on Linux and BSD. Originally a fork of Torsmo, Conky's torsmo-based code is BSD licensed. New code in Conky has been licensed under GPL 3.0. Since its inception, Conky has changed significantly from its predecessor, while maintaining simplicity and configurability. Conky can display just about anything, either on your root desktop, in its own window. Not only does Conky have many built-in objects, it can also display just about any piece of information by using scripts and other external programs. A plethora of OS stats (uname, uptime, CPU usage, mem usage, disk usage, "top" like process stats, and network monitoring, just to name a few). Conky can display information either as text, or using simple progress bars and graph widgets, with different fonts and colours. -

Glances
An eye on your system
Glances is an open source, cross-platform monitoring tool that aims to provide a significant amount of monitoring information through a curses or Web-based interface. Depending on the size of the user interface, this information can then dynamically adapt. Glances can work in client/server mode, and is also capable of remote monitoring. All systems statistics can be exported to files or external time/value databases. Glances gets information from your system through various libraries, and is based on an open architecture, so you can add new plugins or export modules. -

Bit-Twist (Packet generator/editor)
Packet generator and packet editor for Windows, Linux, BSD, and macOS
Supported systems: Windows, Linux, BSD, and macOS. Bit-Twist is a simple yet powerful libpcap-based Ethernet packet generator and packet editor. It is designed to complement tcpdump, which by itself has done a great job at capturing network traffic. With Bit-Twist, you can now regenerate your captured traffic onto a live network! Packets are generated from tcpdump trace file (.pcap file). Bit-Twist comes with a comprehensive trace file editor to allow you to change the contents of a trace file. Bit-Twist is designed for exceptional speed, allowing you to edit 10 million packets in under 3 seconds and send them over a live network at throughput levels that match your NIC's maximum line rate, up to 10 Gbps. Bit-Twist is ideal for simulating network traffic and scenarios, testing firewalls, IDS, IPS, routers, switches, load balancers, and other network equipment, as well as troubleshooting various network issues. https://bittwist.sourceforge.io / ayeowch@gmail.com -

Osquery
SQL operating system instrumentation and monitoring framework
Osquery is an operating system instrumentation framework for Windows, OS X (macOS), Linux, and FreeBSD. The tools make low-level operating system analytics and monitoring both performant and intuitive. Osquery exposes an operating system as a high-performance relational database. This allows you to write SQL queries to explore operating system data. With osquery, SQL tables represent abstract concepts such as running processes, loaded kernel modules, open network connections, browser plugins, hardware events or file hashes.Osquery queries your devices like a database. Osquery uses basic SQL commands to leverage a relational data-model to describe a device. Frequently, attackers will leave a malicious process running but delete the original binary on disk. This query returns any process whose original binary has been deleted, which could be an indicator of a suspicious process. -
