Welcome to glyph.sh - a privacy-focused technical resource site for IT professionals, MSPs, system administrators, and security practitioners.

What is glyph.sh?

This site provides three main resources:

  1. Documentation - Technical standards, procedures, and runbooks for MSP and enterprise environments
  2. Knowledge Base - Practical troubleshooting guides and quick reference materials
  3. Tools - Privacy-respecting web-based utilities that run entirely in your browser

Privacy First

Unlike many similar sites, glyph.sh takes privacy seriously:

  • No Analytics - We don’t use Google Analytics or any tracking services
  • No Cookies - Zero tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or session cookies
  • No Logging - CloudFront access logging is disabled
  • Client-Side Tools - All tools run in your browser, data never leaves your device

Why Another Tech Resource Site?

Good question! Here’s what makes glyph.sh different:

Real-World Focus

The documentation and knowledge base content comes from actual MSP and enterprise experience. These aren’t theoretical guides - they’re battle-tested procedures used in production environments.

Privacy-Respecting Tools

Most online tools come with a privacy cost - tracking, analytics, data collection. Our tools run entirely client-side in your browser. Your data is yours.

Open Source

Most tools and scripts are available under the MIT License. If something is useful to you, take it, modify it, use it.
