Hackjacks Cyber Security

Along with Pakistani terrorists, even Pakistani hackers are also started to teasing India. This time their target is Indian aircraft.  image is just for reference purpose Yes, Somehow it’s weird but true.  Pakistani hackers are up to some real job by teasing the pilots of Indian passenger’s planes landing into the airports close to the Line of Control (LoC) in Occupied Kashmir.  They have been breaching networking protocols of Indian airports for some time now, reported Times of India.  They are able to disrupt communication between the pilots and the control tower just before landing and start playing Pakistan’s patriotic songs like “Dil Dil Pakistan” in the cockpit. A senior pilot (name cannot be disclosed), who regularly takes flights to Jammu and Thoise Air Force base, was mentioned that Pakistan hackers have been doing so by matching the frequency of the communication between the plane and the control tower. However, Indian pilots have now adop...

Hello Friends,  If you are reading this it means that you are interested to learn Hacking more or less. I have seen many people who are misguided and wanted to learn hacking for somewhat malicious or wrong purpose. Some people wants to make career into the field. But the fact is after all of their efforts less then 20% out of them are getting their proper goals and designation.  Here I will discuss upon 5 things that you should keep in mind before learn hacking or before entering into the field.  1. Get clear on your purpose Many time I have seen the people who wants to learn the hacking for animus or revenge for something bad happens to them. This is very amiss reason to learn the hacking. At this stage I would like to say that there are very less chances that you can get help by learning hacking skills.  More chances are that you may get into the trouble for this by law and statutory regulation. If you have this motto, you may not get your solut...

Yesterday I received a call from relevant media resources the a website page of Gujarat High court has been hacked by PCA (Pakistan Cyber Army). A well known black hat hacker Faisal hacked a page of website and put a message regarding repulsion towards Indian soldiers in Kashmir along with greeting Pakistani hackers.  They hacked a website page named 'Recruitment' on official website of Gujarat high court. However they neither steal nor delete any data. As per primary observation this is obvious case of Web defacement. There are various techniques which may use for this act such as  SQL injection  XSS attack  Buffer overflow etc.  Here we have to learn a recondite lesson that hackers can do anything. I always says "If a hacker decided to enter in you system(or network or anywhere) he will and you can't stop him. You can just make this process hard for him." We can consider this hacker 'Faisal 1337' as a black hat...

Scores of on-line criminals continue to harass B-Town celebrities, but looks like the cyber cell is still not equipped to bring the perpetrators to book  In today's digital age where technology has become an indispensable part of our lives, its pitfalls are inescapable too. Instances where email accounts are hacked into are commonplace now, ditto for fake MMSes doing the rounds. Bollywood celebs are not immune to hackers' tricks either. A recent instance would be that of Bollywood designer Ana Singh, whose email account was hacked into on Tuesday. The hacker apparently sent out mails requesting people on her contact list to send her 1,300 euros. The distraught designer then posted a statement on a social networking site where she clarified that her gmail account was hacked into. "My account is hacked, ignore all mails," her post read. She has now filed a police complaint. Ana is among scores of B-town celebs, who have been unwitting victims of cyber crime. Wh...

From:  Satya Nadella To:  All Employees Date:  Feb. 4, 2014 Subject:  RE: Satya Nadella – Microsoft’s New CEO Today is a very humbling day for me. It reminds me of my very first day at Microsoft, 22 years ago. Like you, I had a choice about where to come to work. I came here because I believed Microsoft was the best company in the world. I saw then how clearly we empower people to do magical things with our creations and ultimately make the world a better place. I knew there was no better company to join if I wanted to make a difference. This is the very same inspiration that continues to drive me today. It is an incredible honor for me to lead and serve this great company of ours. Steve and Bill have taken it from an idea to one of the greatest and most universally admired companies in the world. I’ve been fortunate to work closely with both Bill and Steve in my different roles at Microsoft, and as I step in as CEO, I’ve asked Bill to devote additional tim...

LiFi is a new way to establish wireless communication links using the Led lighting networks. The LiFi protocols are defined by the international standard IEEE 802.15 established since 2011 by the IEEE comity. This is the same comity that has defined previously the Ethernet 802.3 and WiFi 802.11 standards. For numerous specialists, LiFi is a major breakthrough technology for the mobile Internet community and for the connected objects domain. After more than 4 years of scientific research at the University of Versailles, OLEDCOMM is the first European company that start to commercialize LiFi communication solutions a worldwide level. When the lighting networks become wireless communication networks The world of Lighting companies experiences a true revolution with the development of Led lighting devices. With reduced energy consumption and a longer liftime, Leds appear as a solution that cannot be overlooked to face up to the challenge of the CO2 emission reduction at the worl...

A recent study revealed that small business owners are stuck with major costs as a result of cyber attacks.   According to the “2013 Small Business Technology Survey” ( PDF ), small companies lost around $8,700 on average following these incidents. Conducted by the National Small Business Association (NSBA), the survey polled 845 small business owners across industries in the U.S. In the study, 44 percent of respondents reported that their business had been struck by a cyber attack, which was defined as being infected by  malware , such as spyware or banking trojans. “Perhaps the most important statistic gleaned from this section [on cyber security] is the fact that nearly half of small businesses report having been the victim of a cyber attack,” the report said. “These attacks result in significant losses of time and services interruptions, and typically cost these firms thousands of dollars.” NSBA last conducted its technology survey in 2010. In ...

WiMAX is one of the hottest broadband wireless technologies around today. WiMAX systems are expected to deliver broadband access services to residential and enterprise customers in an economical way. Loosely, WiMax is a standardized wireless version of Ethernet intended primarily as an alternative to wire technologies ( such as Cable Modems, DSL and T1/E1 links ) to provide broadband access to customer premises. More strictly, WiMAX is an industry trade organization formed by leading communications component and equipment companies to promote and certify compatibility and interoperability of broadband wireless access equipment that conforms to the IEEE 802.16 and ETSI HIPERMAN standards. WiMAX would operate similar to WiFi but at higher speeds, over greater distances and for a greater number of users. WiMAX has the ability to provide service even in areas that are difficult for wired infrastructure to reach and the ability to overcome the physical limitations of traditional wired infra...

Almost everything we do online remains stored somewhere and getting rid of the tracks is almost impossible. If you have old accounts you want to delete or social media sites you want erased, this new site named  JustDelete.me  can help. The website, launched by designer Ed Poole and developer Robb Lewis, makes it a lot easier to ‘vanish’ from the Internet. Okay, maybe not permanently, but it is definitely the place to go if you’ve had it with your old accounts and want to start afresh. JustDelete.me is basically a directory of links and information about how to delete specific accounts. When possible, it also lists direct links to web pages that allow you to delete your account. The website also ranks the services based on how easy or difficult it is to  delete an account . The available categories are easy, medium, hard and impossible. For instance, Google and Instagram are categorized as “easy,” since they make it very easy for the users to delete their accounts: they j...
