  • ssl-certs

    SSL certificate config

  • We create our own self-signed TLS/SSL host/domain name certificates, including our own root CA certs; one of our favorite tools to do this: https://github.com/rob-blackbourn/ssl-certs.

  • git-remote-gcrypt

    PGP-encrypted git remotes

  • We use a modified https://github.com/spwhitton/git-remote-gcrypt on some of our git repos and employ the GPG Keychain app (from https://gpgtools.org) to help us manage the associated keys.

  • hockeypuck

    OpenPGP Key Server

  • We're considering using a set of GPG Subkeys to manage all of our encrypted backups and secrets in our various server networks/collections and are considering running our own, private key server (possibly Hockeypuck).
