LRZIP is a compression program and library that can achieve very high compression ratios and speed when used with large files using unlimited sized compression windows. It uses the combined compression algorithms of zpaq and lzma for maximum compression, lzo for maximum speed, and the long range redundancy reduction of rzip. It is designed to scale with increases with RAM size, improving compression further. A choice of either size or speed optimizations allows for either better compression than even lzma can provide, or better speed than gzip, but with bzip2 sized compression levels. It also has high grade password protected encryption and full STDIN/STDOUT support.
Privatix Live-System is a portable encrypted operating system designed to be run directly from a USB flash drive or an external hard drive. This allows the user to safely edit and carry along sensitive data for encrypted communication and anonymous Web surfing. It is based on Debian GNU/Linux.
UsbCryptFormat is a graphical user interface (GUI) for the encryption of USB flash drives or external hard drives. It allows the user to reformat a USB flash drive, an SD card, or an external hard drive with an encrypted filesystem very easily and without the danger of destroying data on an internal hard drive because of incautious handling of device names. So it is usable even for a layperson.
encsh is a simple tool that encrypts a shell or other interpreted script and puts a wrapper around it. The end result is an executable which, when given the correct password, will be decrypted and run through a pipe, effectively keeping the plain text of the script away from the disk.
Birch is a simple proxy or tunnel application with a filter mechanism for line based application protocols built on TCP. Initially it was written to add encryption in a transparent way to the IRC protocol but as the encryption mechanism is implemented in a modular way, it is not restricted to just supporting encryption. Filters can be supplied via Java's Service Provider mechanism. A CLI and a GUI are available.
