Cryptographic toolkit for zero-trust access to infrastructure, applications, and data.

OpenNHP implements a network-access workflow in which a client sends an encrypted knock before reaching a protected resource. A separate server authenticates and authorizes requests, while an access controller changes firewall rules on the protected host. Its Go components can run as separate daemons, and a relay lets browser clients participate through HTTPS.
