Candidate components

Components to investigate and evaluate for fit and purpose.

Network

  • ZeroTier

    ... a distributed network hypervisor built atop a cryptographically secure global peer to peer network. It provides advanced network virtualization and management capabilities on par with an enterprise SDN switch, but across both local and wide area networks and connecting almost any kind of app or device.

  • NetMaker

    ... a tool for creating and managing virtual overlay networks. If you have at least two machines with internet access which you need to connect with a secure tunnel, Netmaker is for you. If you have thousands of servers spread across multiple locations, data centers, or clouds, Netmaker is also for you. Netmaker connects machines securely, wherever they are.

  • Nebula

    ... an overlay networking tool designed to be fast, secure, and scalable. Connect any number of hosts with on-demand, encrypted tunnels that work across any IP networks and without opening firewall ports.

  • InnerNet

    A private network system that uses WireGuard under the hood. ... similar in its goals to Slack's nebula or Tailscale, but takes a bit of a different approach. It aims to take advantage of existing networking concepts like CIDRs and the security properties of WireGuard to turn your computer's basic IP networking into more powerful ACL primitives.

  • GNUNet

    ... an alternative network stack for building secure, decentralized and privacy-preserving distributed applications. Our goal is to replace the old insecure Internet protocol stack. Starting from an application for secure publication of files, it has grown to include all kinds of basic protocol components and applications towards the creation of a GNU internet.
