Start Up/Login Background Items of Unknown Developer

I have these items listed and I don't know what they do nor by whom or when they where installed - some probably suspicious?:

  • nginx
  • open
  • ovpnagent
  • redis-server
  • sandbox-exec (2x)
  • startcouch.sh
  • xcscontrol


Any hints? Thanks!
