About

NTPsec is an open-source, security-hardened implementation of the Network Time Protocol (NTP), derived from NTP Classic originally created by Dave Mills. The project focuses on delivering a codebase suitable for deployments with stringent security, availability, and assurance requirements. It applies best practices in code auditing, verification, and testing, with full public source code access.

Problem

Standard NTP implementations may lack the security hardening and code quality required for deployments with strict security and availability requirements.

For

system administrators and operators running secure or high-assurance network infrastructure

How it works

NTPsec provides a rigorously audited, open-source NTP implementation available via a public git repository, enabling community review and secure time synchronization deployments.
