The Windows client of Baidu Netdisk has reached 8.9.2.101, and the work of the past year sits after the upload: image text search, inline preview of Word, CAD and PSD, frame level comments on video in team spaces, and a poster wall for local films.

An open implementation of the SSH protocol, providing the ssh, scp and sftp clients and the sshd server. It carries encrypted sessions, tunnels and several authentication methods, and is maintained by developers of the OpenBSD project. Current version 10.6.

A network scanning tool for home and office use that finds and identifies every device on a wireless or wired network within seconds, reports brand and model, and adds alerts for unknown devices, a router check, open port scanning and automatic speed tests.

A desktop front end for the InterPlanetary File System that folds a local node, file handling, peer management and content browsing into one application. If a node already runs on the machine it becomes the control panel for it instead of starting a second one. Version 0.50.1, MIT licensed, three desktop platforms.

A file and print sharing suite for Linux and Unix systems that implements the SMB and CIFS protocols and brings those machines into an Active Directory environment. Version 4.25.0 was published in September 2026, while the 4.24 series stays maintained.

An open source project that links phones and computers over one protocol. Files and links pass either way, phone notifications arrive on the desktop and can be answered from there, and one device can trigger a predefined command on another. Clients exist for every major platform.

A cloud storage service that charges once rather than yearly. Registration starts with a basic allowance that simple tasks can push up to 10GB, an optional encryption add on leaves the service holding only ciphertext, and clients exist for five desktop and mobile systems.

Termius is a cross platform SSH client, formerly Serverauditor, that gathers hosts, keys and snippets into an end to end encrypted vault; the free tier already covers SSH, SFTP and port forwarding.

Nmap is a free open source tool for network discovery and security auditing, answering which hosts on a subnet are up, which ports are open and what runs behind them, with Zenmap, Ncat, Ndiff and Nping in the same package.

A cross platform file transfer tool where the sender shows a one time six digit key and the receiver types it in, or a share link valid for forty eight hours carries the file to someone on an entirely different network.

Transmission is a free open source BitTorrent client known for very low memory and processor use, with native interfaces on three platforms, a daemon of its own and web remote control; stable version 4.1.3 fixes security flaws.

Files are encrypted on your machine, split into pieces and scattered across independent nodes, so no single operator holds a complete copy. The interface, conveniently, is ordinary S3.

Dozens of storage backends behind a single vocabulary, plus two abilities that change what is possible: encrypt before uploading, and mount any cloud drive as a local disk.

A rewrite that throws out the old stack, ships as one executable and keeps the parts that matter: desktop and mobile sync, sharing links, and a deployment that fits on a page of instructions instead of a runbook.

Files sent in chat expire; a save action puts them in the cloud where they stay. Photo backup, document preview and a client on every screen make it a plain, useful locker rather than a new habit to learn.
