About:
Spiped creates secure, encrypted TCP tunnels between network endpoints. It establishes a connection between a local listening socket and a remote host, encrypting all data passing through it. This provides confidentiality and integrity for communications between servers or clients.
Key Features:
  • Strong encryption using TLS/SSL protocols
  • Lightweight daemon design with minimal overhead
  • Automatic connection handling and reconnection
  • Supports both IPv4 and IPv6 networks
  • Simple configuration with command-line options
Use Cases:
  • Securing unencrypted database connections between application servers
  • Creating encrypted tunnels for legacy applications that don't support TLS natively
  • Protecting sensitive data in transit across untrusted networks
Alternatives:
  • stunnel – Similar purpose but spiped is simpler to configure and lighter weight
  • ssh -L – SSH port forwarding requires authentication keys, spiped is daemon-focused for automated tunnels
  • socat – More versatile but more complex; spiped specializes in secure tunneling
