N.A.G. (Network Auralization for Gnutella) 1.0 is a distinguished and tractable software art which turns the process of searching for and downloading MP3 files into a chaotic musical collage.
Type in one or more search keywords, and N.A.G. looks for matches on the Gnutella peer-to-peer file sharing network. The software then downloads MP3 files which match the search keyword(s) and remixes these audio files in real time based on the structure of the Gnutella network itself.
N.A.G. (Network Auralization for Gnutella) is a 2003 commission of New Radio and Performing Arts, Inc., (dba Ether-Ore), for its Turbulence web site. It was made possible with funding from the National Endowment for the Arts.

Kismet 200905 RC1
Kismet is an 802.11 layer2 wireless network detector, sniffer, and intrusion detection system more>> Kismet is an 802.11 layer2 wireless network detector, sniffer, and intrusion detection system
Kismet is an 802.11 layer2 wireless network detector, sniffer, and intrusion detection system.
Kismet will work with any wireless card which comes with support for the raw monitoring (rfmon) mode, and can sniff 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g traffic.
Kismet identifies networks by passively collecting packets and detecting standard named networks, detecting (and given time, decloaking) hidden networks, and infering the presence of nonbeaconing networks via data traffic.
Main features:
- Ethereal/Tcpdump compatible data logging
- Airsnort compatible weak-iv packet logging
- Network IP range detection
- Built-in channel hopping and multicard split channel hopping
- Hidden network SSID decloaking
- Graphical mapping of networks
- Client/Server architecture allows multiple clients to view a single
- Kismet server simultaneously
- Manufacturer and model identification of access points and clients
- Detection of known default access point configurations
- Runtime decoding of WEP packets for known networks
- Named pipe output for integration with other tools, such as a layer3 IDS like Snort
- Multiplexing of multiple simultaneous capture sources on a single Kismet instance
- Distributed remote drone sniffing
- XML output
- Over 20 supported card types
Enhancements
- This is a complete rewrite of Kismet (referred to as Kismet-Newcore while under development).
- It includes a new user interface, improved tracking, IDS functions, a plugin architecture... for both server and client, and auto-detection of drivers and supported channels on sniffing devices
cocoaConnect 1.01
cocoaConnect is a simple to use, yet sophisticated tool which takes Mac OS X Locations to the next level. more>> cocoaConnect 1.01 is a simple to use, yet sophisticated tool which takes Mac OS X Locations to the next level. It can automatically detect a network based on a DHCP packet received or an airport network name. Once that network is detected it changes Mac OS X Location, especially useful if you use proxy servers. It can then also connect your network shares for you and remember the username and password for those shares. It can also set your default printer. This first release has been tested throughly and now it is stable more features can be added. My plans are to add custom detection patterns and also custom actions.
Enhancements: Splash screeen for first run, which explains how to get cocoaConnect setup.
Requirements: Mac OS X 10.3 or later.

Asbestos 1.1 is such a useful software in which a firewall machine sits between two networks and examines each packet trying to travel from one network to the other and decides whether to allow it to pass. This script will not protect the other machines on your network, only the Mac OS X box it's installed on,so it isn't a true firewall, just armor for an individual system.
What the script does is preventing outsiders from accessing ports where you're running daemon programs that may have privilege - if they can't access them, they can't exploit any bugs in the code.
Requirements: Mac OS X Public Beta

This is especially fun for viewing the images that come from visited webpages on a AirPort wireless network.
It works by capturing unencrypted TCP packets off your local network, collecting packets into groups based on TCP connection (determined from source IP address, destination IP address, source TCP port and destination TCP port), reassembling those packets into order based on TCP sequence number, and then scanning the resulting data for byte sequences that suggest the presence of JPEG or GIF data.
EtherPEG works with any TCP/IP network, including Ethernet networks and wireless networks like AirPort, as long as the data is not encrypted. If the data is encrypted using IPSEC, or Virtual Private Network (VPN) products like PGPNet, or Web Browser SSL encryption, then third-parties cannot view your data. The source code is included in the download. It was featured at the MacHack 2000 conference.
