Sanctum VPN daemon for OpenBSD, Linux and macOS

Sanctum is a small, reviewable, experimental and fully privilege seperated VPN daemon that runs on openbsd linux and macos. It takes privilege separation to the extreme to make sure all assets are isolated and each component is sandboxed with only the permissions they require.

Sanctum VPN daemon for OpenBSD, Linux and macOS launched on October 2, 2024 with 8 votes, #1,329 of 5,185 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was not reachable when checked in September 2026.

    Shuru is a lightweight sandbox that spins up Linux VMs on macOS using Apple's Virtualization.framework. Boots in about a second on Apple Silicon, and everything is ephemeral by default. There's a checkpoint system for when you do want to persist state, and sandboxes run without network access unless you explicitly allow it. Single Rust binary, no dependencies. Built it for sandboxing AI agent code execution, but it works well for anything where you need a disposable Linux environment.
