1. Engineering Blogs

Companies / A companies

• Azavea https://www.azavea.com/blog/category/software-development/

2. Vertx Awesome

Authentication Authorisation

• Vert.x-Pac4j (⭐121) - Vert.x authentication/authorisation implemented using pac4j.

3. Awesome Shell

Multimedia and File Formats / Directory Navigation

• nehm (⭐85) - Console tool, which downloads, sets IDv3 tags and adds to your iTunes (if you use it) your SoundCloud likes in convenient way

4. Awesome Cryptography

Algorithms / Symmetric encryption

• AES - Symmetric-key block cipher algorithm and U.S. government standard for secure and classified data encryption and decryption (also known as Rijndael).

• Blowfish - Symmetric-key block cipher, designed in 1993 by Bruce Schneier. Notable features of the design include key-dependent S-boxes and a highly complex key schedule.

Algorithms / Hash functions

• MD5 - Widely used hash function producing a 128-bit hash value. MD5 was initially designed to be used as a cryptographic hash function, but it has been found to suffer from extensive vulnerabilities. It can still be used as a checksum to verify data integrity, but only against unintentional corruption.

• SHA1 - Cryptographic hash function designed by the NSA. SHA-1 produces a 160-bit hash value known as a message digest. SHA-1 is no longer considered secure against well-funded opponents.

• SHA2 - Set of hash functions designed by the NSA. SHA-256 and SHA-512 are novel hash functions computed with 32-bit and 64-bit words, respectively. They use different shift amounts and additive constants, but their structures are otherwise virtually identical, differing only in the number of rounds.

Books / Hash functions

• An Introduction to Mathematical Cryptography - Introduction to modern cryptography.

Standalone / Hash functions

• Bcrypt - Cross-platform file encryption utility.

• certbot (⭐31k) - Previously the Let's Encrypt Client, is EFF's tool to obtain certs from Let's Encrypt, and (optionally) auto-enable HTTPS on your server. It can also act as a client for any other CA that uses the ACME protocol.

• gpg - Complete and free implementation of the OpenPGP standard. It allows to encrypt and sign your data and communication, features a versatile key management system. GnuPG is a command line tool with features for easy integration with other applications.

Plugins / Git

• git-secret - Bash-tool to store your private data inside a git repository.

C / Git

• libgcrypt - Cryptographic library developed as a separated module of GnuPG.

• libsodium (⭐12k) - Modern and easy-to-use crypto library.

• libtomcrypt (⭐1.5k) - Fairly comprehensive, modular and portable cryptographic toolkit.

• NaCl - High-speed library for network communication, encryption, decryption, signatures, etc.

• wolfSSL (⭐2.1k) - Small, fast, portable implementation of TLS/SSL for embedded devices to the cloud.

C++ / Git
