We're launching SecureBuild: https://securebuild.com — a new way for open source projects and maintainers to earn revenue by partnering with and endorsing our Zero-CVE container images of their project. We’ve spent the last decade at Replicated (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9841243) helping commercial and open source software vendors securely distribute their apps to enterprise environments. During that time, we saw firsthand how hard it is for maintainers to fund their work, and how increasingly demanding enterprises have become when it comes to demonstrable…

Hey Hacker News! I am madnuttah, I am a Windows/Linux Sysadmin and some folks may remember this username for "niche" mods I've made for Fallout and Skyrim and some C# UWP Windows Store Apps which I've retired because of Microsoft's unclear strategy abandoning things from one day to another. Why am I writing this? I wanted to be independent from the DNS servers of my provider, because they have often shined brightly with problems in the past instead of functioning properly, wanted to have a little bit more privacy and freedom back by fighting censorship via DNS, so I built my own Unbound…

Hi HN, I'm Dan Draper, founder of CipherStash. We've spent 5 years building per-value searchable encryption tech. We realized that encryption like this is incredibly powerful but the engineering required is generally not worth the effort. So we built a platform and opensource SDK to take the cry out of cryptography :) CipherStash Stack is: * A searchable encryption SDK for TS and Postgres * Fast, key management with Zerokms (backed by HSM) * A transparent SQL proxy * Auth library and OIDC federation service * Skills for data security Integrations include Prisma Next, Drizzle, Auth0, Clerk…

Hey Everyone! I’ve recently been working on an open-source proxy server to help front end applications securely access third party APIs that require confidential API keys without the need to create your own backend. I would love to get some feedback and hear what you think!

Hi HN, I'm an Indie Dev. Building web apps, I struggled to check for vulnerabilities on a surface and a deeper level at the same time. Most free scanners gave vague results or missed dependency issues and tools for deeper searches are mainly for enterprise. Also with vibe coding the issue of security is rising more and more. I built SecureNow - a simple web scanner built with Next.js and Supabase that checks SSL, ports, dependencies, headers, and basic vulns. It caught real issues in my projects. Free basic scans at securenow.app. Feedback on accuracy and missing features? Thanks!

I got tired of: - .env files committed to Git (seen it happen 100+ times) - API keys shared in Slack - Wondering who has access to what secrets So I built Liberty - a CLI tool that replaces .env files with hardware-bound encryption. How it works: $ pip install liberty-secrets $ liberty add DATABASE_URL postgresql://... $ liberty add STRIPE_KEY sk-... $ liberty exec npm start Secrets are encrypted with a key derived from your machine's hardware (CPU ID + machine ID + disk serial). If someone steals your .liberty vault file, it's useless on their machine. Features: - Hardware-bound…

tl;dr we released openapi.security, an online tool that performs a dozen of security tests on any given openapi/swagger-based API, with no signup or email required. You can try it here: https://openapi.security My team at Escape (YC W23) is mainly focused on securing GraphQL APIs. For this, we developed a new approach called Feedback driven API Exploration. Basically, we infer the right security tests cases to run using the specification and a carefully crafted in house graph traversal algorithm. (It's a bit long to describe here but we published a more in depth explanation of…
