Chisel is a fast TCP tunnel, transported over HTTP. Single executable including both client and server. Written in Go ( #Golang ). Chisel is mainly useful for passing through firewalls, though it can also be used to provide a secure endpoint into your network. Chisel is very similar to crowbar though achieves much higher performance.
