CamGuard Atlas

CamGuard Atlas: Camera Scan is a camera-first discovery and verification console for home and travel environments. The product is not limited to single-stream viewing. Its workflow is built for operational clarity: scan first, identify second, verify third, and then inspect risk. What makes it different: - LAN camera discovery: scan the local network for cameras and related nodes, then organize them by connection context. - Verification pipeline: validate camera connectivity and read real device information, including ONVIF/RTSP availability checks. - Risk-link ranking: prioritize suspicious links using identity certainty, online stability, and behavior-based signals. - Bluetooth radar layer: add nearby Bluetooth broadcast scanning as a secondary wireless signal surface. - Spatial inspection guidance: combine room heatmap views and protection checklists for practical on-site inspection order. - Live-view access when needed: open real-time camera views from verified devices. Professional workflow design: CamGuard Atlas merges camera scanning, topology modeling, wireless-signal context, and physical-space inspection into one operational panel. Instead of jumping between disconnected apps, users follow a single risk-oriented sequence: discover -> identify -> verify -> inspect. Best for users who need to discover suspicious cameras quickly, validate connection authenticity, and execute structured privacy-safety checks.
Katnet

katnet is a network discovery and connectivity toolkit for IT Professionals. See which hosts are online, which ports respond, and what each device advertises-then jump straight into SSH or VNC when you need a terminal or remote desktop. Discover devices Run a TCP sweep across your subnet (with a sensible default port set, or your own list). Results merge with Bonjour browsing and SSDP/UPnP-style hints so cameras, printers, NAS boxes, and servers show up with clearer context. Enrichment includes lightweight probes where appropriate (for example HTTP, TLS certificate summaries, SSH banners, and SNMP where reachable) to build a richer fingerprint-without sending your scan results to us. Built-in clients Use SSH for shell access and VNC for remote screen sharing to machines you are authorized to manage. A URL test tab helps verify HTTP/HTTPS reachability and status. A Status view summarizes local addressing and network context. Privacy katnet is built for on-network, on-device use. Discovery talks to your routers, printers, and servers over local Wi-Fi or Ethernet. You control when scanning runs. Grant Local Network access when iOS asks so multicast, Bonjour, and LAN probes can work. Important Only scan networks and systems you own or have explicit permission to test. Unauthorized scanning or access may violate law or policy.
