**[VeraCrypt](https://www.veracrypt.fr)** | VeraCrypt is open source cross-platform disk encryption software. You can use it to either encrypt a specific file or directory, or an entire disk or partition. VeraCrypt is incredibly feature-rich, with comprehensive encryption options, yet the GUI makes it easy to use. It has a CLI version, and a portable edition. VeraCrypt is the successor of (the now deprecated) TrueCrypt.
**[Cryptomator](https://cryptomator.org)** | Open source client-side encryption for cloud files- Cryptomator is geared towards using alongside cloud-backup solutions, and hence preserves individual file structure, so that they can be uploaded. It too is easy to use, but has fewer technical customizations for how the data is encrypted, compared with VeraCrypt. Cryptomator works on Windows, Linux and Mac- but also has excellent mobile apps.

- **Web** - If you are self-hosting your mail server, you will probably want a web-based email client. [RainLoop](http://www.rainloop.net) and [RoundCube](https://roundcube.net) are both good open source options.
- **Mobile** - the most secure option is usually to use the app provided by your mail provider. If your mail server is self-hosted, then consider [FairMail](https://email.faircode.eu/) which is a fully featured, open source, privacy oriented email app for Android. There is also [pretty Easy privacy p≡p](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=security.pEp), which has OpenPGP built in, and [K-9 Mail](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fsck.k9), (which has been around almost as long as Android!), has a solid reputation for privacy and security features.

**[Tor](https://www.torproject.org)** | Tor provides robust anonymity, allowing you to defend against surveillance, circumvent censorship and reduce tracking. It blocks trackers, resists fingerprinting and implements multi-layered encryption by default, meaning you can browse freely. Tor also allows access to OnionLand: hidden services
**[I2P](https://geti2p.net)** | I2P offers great generic transports, it is well geared towards accessing hidden services, and has a couple of technical benefits over Tor: P2P friendly with unidirectional short-lived tunnels, it is packet-switched (instead of circuit-switched) with TCP and UDP, and continuously profiles peers, in order to select the best performing ones. <br>I2P is less mature, but fully-distributed and self-organising, it's smaller size means that it hasn't yet been blocked or DOSed much
**[Freenet]()** | Freenet is easy to setup, provides excellent friend To Friend Sharing vs I2P, and is great for publishing content anonymously. It's quite large in size, and very slow so not the best choice for casual browsing

Tor, I2P and Freenet are all anonymity networks- but they work very differently and each is good for specific purposes. So a good and viable solution would be to use all of them, for different tasks.
