What it does
LTH Shield is affordable Linux hardening + monitoring for small teams—not enterprise EDR. One install command on Ubuntu/Debian gives fail2ban, FIM, baselines, and optional Snort AI IPS (learning/rules on our servers, controlled in the portal). Built for the wave of vibe-coded apps and founders spinning up VPS boxes who need real protection without Falcon/Darktrace pricing or a SOC.
LTH Shield — Linux VPS hardening and Snort AI IPS. Self-serve plans from $4.99 CAD/month. Sign in or create an account.
LTH Cybersecurity provides fast, secure server deployment, hardening and administration. Our team specializes in Linux servers and VPS and are familiar with a wide-range of tech stacks. LTH Shield is our self-serve control plane: one-command hardening for Linux VPS, alerts in a portal, and Snort AI IPS on Pro and Shield plans — built for small teams who need real protection without enterprise pricing. Every day, developers, founders, and small teams deploy Linux VPS instances to host websites, SaaS products, APIs, and AI applications. The application gets deployed—but the server is often left with little or no security beyond the operating system defaults. LTH Shield helps bridge that gap…from lthcybersecurity.com

I built a smart proxy so your coding agent can run looseJul 2026 · trollbridge.dev · ▲14The only way to go fast is full YOLO mode in your coding agent. I've got the local sandbox figured out (pro tip: Incus VMs work great) but I wanted to keep my agents from doing things like inadvertently blowing up my cloud services or chasing a prompt to POST to some random website. I struggle most with this on my side projects where my permission model isn't quite as robust as it is at the office. I started with a firewall on the Incus container but every time the agent needed access to something new, I was poking more holes in it - and it didn't differentiate between HTTP verbs. I've been…

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
