Although listing the contents of a directory is not a good practice for most of the websites (considering the complete structure and files will be available to the public eyes), it is an easy way to show and share files.

The default Apache directory listing/index page is not the most handsome one and h5ai is a template built specifically to improve these pages.

Its is built with HTML5 Boilerplate, jQuery + Modernizr and can be implemented with few steps: "copy folder h5ai to the web-root directory of your server and update the .htaccess file".

There is a list of options provided inside a JavaScript file and, best of all, the output can be presented in multiple languages with the strings being defined inside that JS file.

With over 70% of all attacks now carried out over the web application level.

Web application firewalls are used to create an external security layer to improve security, detection, and prevention of attacks before they hit web applications.

Web servers are well-equipped to log traffic for marketing analyses, but they are not good when it comes to logging of traffic to web applications.

ModSecurity is a web application firewall for Apache which makes full HTTP transaction logging possible, allowing complete requests and responses to be logged.

This web application firewall has an easy to use rule engine which creates the core of the system.

ModSecurity can monitor the HTTP traffic in real time, has other features like parallel text matching, Geo IP resolution, credit card number detection, support for content injection, automated rule updates, scripting & more.

Mindquarry is a brilliant open source application to organize teams in means of documents, ideas and tasks. Shortly, their collaboration.

This team collaboration application can be reached both from the browsers and from a desktop application.

Document Management

The strongest part of the application is document management.  It uses Subversion for document versioning and backup, supports file syncronization, collaborative editing and has notification system for the updates made within the documents.

Wiki

You can create wikis, assigns them to teams or tasks to manage the ideas and information. Updates made to the wiki content can be viewed within the activity timeline, pdf output can be generated and more.

Team Management

Teams are holding the user groups together. They can be assigned to tasks, have their own wikis and permission groups on documents, tasks..

Task Management

Mindquarry has a handy task management module where tasks can be created, assigned to users, priority levels and their status can be set.

To mention, this is not a project management module and does not have milestones, resources, costs or chart features. It simply allows users to assign and control tasks (for a chance to win a great project management software license check the OneProject Project 8 giveaway).

Conclusion

If you are working in teams, need to share and work on documents together I believe Mindquarry can be a perfect fit as you will be able to:

• Work on the same docs, have them versionned and backed up.
• Create your own information or idea libraries with the wiki feature.
• Assign tasks to each other.

Application requires Apache, Java and Subversion to be installed. Desktop application has Windows, Mac and Linux versions which makes everything much better.

Tip: Mindquarry has a XAMPP download in the downloads section that automatically installs Apache, Subversion and Perl to prepare the application environment.
