Investing in SEO Submission
When it comes to website submissions, there are secrets and affiliations that some people have got that others don’t. A lot of them use this privilege as a service and for sure, there will be corresponding prices for submitting sites using their ideas.
Some would choose to go the other way meaning that they will do it on their own. But while there are free website submissions, what is a few cents to spare for some SEO submission companies in exchange for eternal traffic to your site?
If you want to be big in business, you have to shell out some dough. In this case, a few pennies may become bills in no time.
Too Many Online Games To Choose From
If you are a serious online gamer, chances are you will notice that there have been a lot of them online. Whether you go for the hardcore online role playing games or the standard arcade games for fun, chances are you will not enjoy them if you constantly change your fancy.
We cannot blame the programmers for coming up with these types of programs. It just remains that there is a demand and other than profit, many are vying for fame. So in the end, it all depends if they have come up with a game that majority of the gamers would love. If not, then perhaps it is all a waste of time and effort.
Data Encryption - How it Benefits you and me? (Part 3)
With common transactional data, 128 bit encryption is standard for it is estimated that it would take a couple of years for a computer that is fast enough to crack it. Take it a notch up, and you get a time frame goes up to a couple of decades or so till technology can get around to cracking the code easily. In 2002, the longest RC5 encrypted key to be ever broken took five years and that was only 64 bit RC5, imagine 128 and 256? 256 bits of information is roughly equal to the number of atoms in the whole universe which is why encryption at these levels conforms to use on sensitive government information. For you and me, 128 bit would be tough enough to secure our data for a couple of years for within that time frame a newer and better encryption standard may be in place to take up the cause.
Data Encryption - How it Benefits You and Me? (Part 2)
That all happens in a couple of minutes without you ever knowing that there was some very fascinating stuff happening in the background. For credit cards and other major bank transactions, they are now using PCI-DSS; an encryption standard that encrypts the transaction information as it travels thought the network. Anyone who taps into the network can get hold of the information but without the proper key, all you get is garbage, the result, you are protected from credit card fraud and your charges are reflected as they should be. Encryption is meant to protect information for a specified duration that the information stays relevant.
Data Encryption - How it Benefits You and Me? (Part 1)
As you surf the web as part of your job or for more trivial pursuits you send information through the internet at breakneck speeds that a web page that is based on a server in California takes only milliseconds to open. You go to the grocery and pick up the monthly goods using your credit card to pay for your bill, then you go to the clothing shop to buy a piece of clothing again using your credit card. Now pay attention to the credit card use process, the cashier would normally check for authentication markings on the card, one of the most obvious are holograms of the company logo and other marks. They then swipe the card at a data terminal that checks if your credit card number is assigned to the right name in the credit card office’s database for verification and then checks if you have enough credit to charge the current purchases.
Of Windows and Doors (Back-doors that is) Part-2
It is possible to copy files from a suspected laptop or computer with a special tool the Microsoft Corp. has provided law enforcement people access to and it uses publicly available programs that are combined to produce a sort of way to obtain information from a computer in as little as 10 to 15 minutes. It used to take a couple of hours to do all the steps necessary to achieve the same results but putting them all together and placing them in something as fast as a flash drive/thumb drive is better for you plug it in, it does its magic and its out again. That information was released by Microsoft themselves as they move to aid the government in efforts to secure vital information on suspected whoever they are. That does not discuss in depth if their key (the flash drive) would work on the newer and more robust 128 to 256 AES encryption their Vista uses.
Of Windows and Doors (Back-doors that is) Part-1
There have been a lot of rumors circulating that the Microsoft Windows Vista Operating system has a back door that allows people with the right technology to access all the information in encrypted systems. Well, the truth is that yes, there is a way of doing it and no there is no back-door to windows. This issue has been haunting many Windows users since well, they started using Windows. Many have always been speculating that the company is using some way of gathering information form us the users like the kinda’ stuff malware are currently doing. The theories are quite sound and for me personally there could be some truth to that but with the new Windows Vista System, that might be impossible for the 128bit or 256bit AES encryption.
Anti-virus flaws Leave Holes in PC Security (Part 3)
Scripts are some of the hardest ones to crack for they are part of the full internet experience, for they make some of the seemingly magical behavior of your browser possible. Remembering usernames and passwords, knowing which pages you often visit and even track your online purchases so your browser knows which products you prefer to view in online searches, all these done with scripts. These scripts are also one of the most widely used exploits by hackers for many users know that they are necessary for web pages, knowing which is the true required script is the problem for malware often use and look the same as authentic scripts that you normally use.
The problems with the internet malware is that it accounts for billions in lost revenue and millions of stolen information for use in fraud and other devious means. A word of advice, if you have anti-virus software, keep them updated and do regular scans of your computer so you stay protected and get the nasty bugs that are hiding deep in your system.
installed. The problem is that the net is always up and there are seldom any re-routing connections that would allow for rehabilitation of the major arteries. Unless they do something, a natural disaster or some man made one can have the potential to cut off part of the net for sometime which would result in billions of loss for the whole world.
Anti-virus flaws Leave Holes in PC Security (Part 2)
Well an anti-virus software is as the name says a software product that was programmed by some of the greatest human minds (sometimes by hacker themselves for they know how the system works) as a way of countering the millions of threats (viruses, Trojan horses and many other forms of malware) out in the internet in hopes of preventing them from doing what they do, damage computer files, steal information, you name it and they can do it. The clause “human” is again the weak point for no human being on this earth is so perfect that they can anticipate every angle of an attack, sometimes resulting in some very obvious mistakes that hackers quickly pick up on and develop malware for. The many holes in anti-virus programs that can be fooled to think they have nothing to report (but in reality they have already been bypassed and the malware is already running in the seemingly safe computer without anyone knowing about it) as the hacker attendees reported. The holes are so big and easy to exploit that a seasoned hacker can make malware that is specifically designed to exploit it in no time.
Anti-virus flaws Leave Holes in PC Security (Part 1)
The internet is a very dangerous place to be without protection from the thousands of threats that are out in the wild (the term “wild” is a technical term for running malware that is wreaking havoc on computers connected to the internet) and even with some of the best software comes risks. In the BlueHat hacker convention, developers and hackers come together in the headquarters of the world’s largest software manufacturer/developer and they discuss together some of the most pressing issues regarding what else but threats to Windows. The invitation only event brings together some of the best hackers and software developers who bring out the best and worst of both worlds and something came up that was pretty alarming. Even with virus protection a computer connected to the internet can still get infected, why?
