Resources

Everything in the Resources menu, in one place. Tools, builders, references, and the editorial position behind each one. Use this page as the directory. The cards above are the four programmes we use ourselves; the sections below cover everything else available under Resources, including the in-house tools we built when nothing on the market did the job we needed.

Glossary · 250+ terms

The Predaxia glossary is the operational vocabulary used across every article on this site. Two hundred and twenty-two terms covering threat modelling, network architecture, forensic tooling, legal vocabulary, and the OPSEC concepts that keep showing up in real cases. Each term is defined the way an operator would explain it to a colleague, not the way a marketing page would phrase it. Internal links across the site automatically resolve to the correct definition, so context never breaks.

Threat Model Builder

Tool selection is downstream of the threat model. The Threat Model Builder takes you through the questions an operator would ask before recommending anything: who is the adversary, what is the attack surface, what is the consequence of a leak, what is the cost of getting it wrong. The output is a one-page brief you can save, share, or revisit when the situation changes. No data leaves your browser.

Surveillance Tools

A reference catalogue of the surveillance technology actually deployed by states, corporations, data brokers and private investigators. Each tool is documented with its capability, its known operators, the legal regime that authorises it, and the operator-level countermeasures that work against it. The catalogue is not exhaustive on purpose: it covers the systems we have seen used in real cases, with citations to the public record where available.

Fingerprint Analyzer

A live diagnostic that runs in your browser and shows you exactly which 22 tracking vectors your current configuration is leaking right now. No cookie, no consent banner, no warning required: every site you visit collects the same data silently. The tool is the receipt. The full operator countermeasure stack is documented in our pillar on the operator guide to website tracking.

Tools we use

Three affiliate programmes, one editorial mention. The four tools we run ourselves, written up the way an operator would write them up for another operator. Each entry covers what the tool does, who it actually fits, and the trade-off that comes with it. The full review is on a dedicated page so it can be linked, shared and revisited without scrolling through the rest of this directory.

Tools we refuse

The other side of the editorial line. Companies whose offers we declined, named, with the reasons documented. Free VPNs, providers with logging policies that do not survive scrutiny, password managers with recovery models that defeat the purpose, data removal services that bill for work they do not perform. Reading this page is the fastest way to understand where the standard on the rest of the site comes from.
