  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • hardened_malloc

    Hardened allocator designed for modern systems. It has integration into Android's Bionic libc and can be used externally with musl and glibc as a dynamic library for use on other Linux-based platforms. It will gain more portability / integration over time.

  • Don't "debloat" ROMs - that's about the worst thing you could do for your security. Use a private ROM like LineageOS, CalyxOS, or GrapheneOS. I don't highly recommend Graphene since it includes proprietary software that eats through battery life, even if it is sandboxed. You can't use microG with it, either.

  • android-vts

    Android Vulnerability Test Suite - In the spirit of open data collection, and with the help of the community, let's take a pulse on the state of Android security. NowSecure presents an on-device app to test for recent device vulnerabilities.

  • I don't know about apps that reduce data leaks but I came across this neat app on Droidify (F-Droid client made with Material Design) called ATS for Android. It's an Android Vulnerability Test Suite that will scan your Android device and tell you which vulnerabilities your device is vulnerable to. It will give you link to the information regarding that vulnerability also. Check it out.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
