Hiawatha 6.11 (Default branch)
Hiawatha is an advanced and secure Web server for Unix. It has been written with security as its main goal. It's very secure and fast and is really easy to configure. It features a rootjail, the ability to run CGIs under any UID/GID you want, prevention of SQL injection and cross-site scripting, banning of clients who try such exploits, and many other features. These features make Hiawatha an interesting Web server for those who need more security than what the other available Web servers are offering. Image

sswap

SSWAP(1)						      General Commands Manual							  SSWAP(1)

NAME

       sswap - secure swap wiper (secure_deletion toolkit)

SYNOPSIS

       sswap [-f] [-l] [-l] [-v] [-z] swapdevice

DESCRIPTION

       sswap  is  designed  to	delete	data  which  may  lie still on your swapspace in a secure manner which can not be recovered by thiefs, law
       enforcement or other threats.  The wipe algorythm is based on the paper "Secure Deletion of Data from Magnetic and Solid-State Memory" pre-
       sented at the 6th Usenix Security Symposium by Peter Gutmann, one of the leading civilian cryptographers.

       The secure data deletion process of sswap goes like this:

       *      1 pass with 0xff

       *      5 random passes. /dev/urandom is used for a secure RNG if available.

       *      27 passes with special values defined by Peter Gutmann.

       *      5 random passes. /dev/urandom is used for a secure RNG if available.

COMMANDLINE OPTIONS

       -f     fast (and insecure mode): no /dev/urandom, no synchronize mode.

       -l     lessens the security. Only two passes are written: one mode with 0xff and a final mode with random values.

       -l     -l for a second time lessons the security even more: only one pass with random values is written.

       -v     verbose mode

       -z     wipes the last write with zeros instead of random data

BEWARE

       swapoff
	      unmount your swapspace before using this tool! Otherwise your system might crash!

       BETA!  sswap is still beta. It was only tested on Linux but on this system it performed it's work all of the time.

BUGS

       No  bugs.  There  was  never  a bug in the secure_deletion package (in contrast to my other tools, whew, good luck ;-) Send me any that you
       find.  Patches are nice too :)
