by anup gupta on November 21, 2011 11:45:51 AM We look forward to a more evolving education system with each passing day, an education system which is transparent, flexible and innovative. With all this said and done there are challenges which are faced by education institute which goes beyond the normal activities. One of the most interesting and challenging issue which we noticed was the access to Internet. Exposure to internet is common to all the students across the institute. The question comes is Internet can either be used for constructive purposes like online studies, exposure to latest information and creative ways of using knowledge to more wasteful activities like playing online games, going to adult sites and so on.
We discussed this with few institutes and this is what the feedback was:
"The students are exposed to Internet at the school however we have noticed that the content accessed by them is sometimes not relevant to their studies; playing online games, visiting adult websites is common. This is a disadvantage of providing internet which we are not able to control."
Maria Fernandez, Don Bosco School
"We have regular intervals for student to access internet, however a lot of times malware gets downloaded, adult content gets loaded. We understand that all this may not be intentional but internet filtering needs to be done prior to content display to students."
Joseph Faiclough, Creative Heights
The above comments directly point towards necessity of internet filtering/ web filtering at the institutes.The institutes allow 24 by 7 internet accesses to the students in the hope of providing an open and learning environment. This is essential and has some disadvantages as well. At such a junction what can come to the rescue of these institutes is a web filtering software. There are many internet filtering software which are available in the market and provide great flexibility to the institutes. A web filtering software will help the institutes in allowing only relevant data to be accessed to the students. Few are made custom specific to education institutes only. Hence you can have all the benefits of allowing internet access to the students and at the same time restricting unwanted activities by the students.
Below are few features of good internet filtering software:
To allow to visit only the specified websites from the white list
To view the logs of all the activities done on the internet
Force safe search on all major search engines
Block social networking, online games and other inappropriate content as per schedule or all the time
To specify the allowed tie for internet access
Restricting any harmful or malware links to open
Block chatting, messengers from access
Hence what is going to happen with the tools for internet filtering is you can stay assured that the content accessed is reliable and acceptable at all levels. This not only will be helpful to the community but as an organization will save a lot of your time and efforts. This shall help your employees to focus on their primary activities and improve productivity.
Author says: I have studied a lot about Web content usage and content filtering. I highly recommend parents and schools to use Internet Filter Software to prevent kids from unwanted website access. Block Websites in the network which are not relevant or harmful for kids for the better upbringing. Read more |

by eccuni on October 12, 2011 07:05:20 AM New York City, (NY) September 22, 2011 -- Amazon, Microsoft, and Sony are examples of just some companies that have recently made headlines for all the wrong reasons, having had their cloud computing efforts breached by unethical hackers. EC-Council, an international information security certification body, reports that without proper infrastructure and cryptanalysis training, usage of cloud computing may never be a fully secure platform for individuals or businesses.
Jay Bavisi, the President of EC-Council, says that even though general cloud architecture is relatively secure, it is easy for irreparable damage to be done to online stored data once the first layer of security is breached by an intruder.
Cloud-based services require an operation and management method similar to enterprise systems, demanding well-encrypted data with secure physical locations. With cloud services, every piece of data is stored on a physical hard drive or in solid state memory. This data is thus accessible to anyone with an Internet connection, further highlighting the importance of secure protection.
Most cloud-computing is utilised by users on-the-go, downloading and uploading information on their smartphones and other mobile devices. Global service providers such as Research In Motion (RIM) are focusing on cloud-based services that empower small businesses to centrally manage their company’s and employee’s BlackBerry® smartphones by storing all business-related content in the cloud.
Additionally, a Delloitte report also stated that wireless telecommunications companies in the US could invest $25 to $53 billion in fourth-generation cellular wireless networks between 2012 and 2016 as a possible solution to solving domestic employment woes. Cloud computing, it seems, is here to stay.
Bavisi also says that “cloud computing is fast becoming a repository for supporting applications, storage, and a variety of computing services, making advanced encryption mandatory for the future”. Currently, educating oneself on advanced cryptanalysis appears to be the only solution available to tackle security and privacy concerns, while stillreaping the low-cost benefits of being an early adopter.
EC-Council offers such cryptography courses, namely the Cryptography Deep Dive (615), which teaches its students the history of cryptography, modern cryptographic methods, and how to use techniques like cryptanalysis to break encryptions.

by eccuni on September 08, 2011 06:00:47 AM Cybercrimes are becoming more prevalent and frequent nowadays and the scary part about that is it doesn’t choose a particular age or demographic. Even as young as 12 can actually do it and with the right mentor, the kid might be destined to excellence in his trade or to… well, to prison. It’s scary to see how high the cybercrime rates are in a few years or so. Until such prioritized and implemented regulation and supervision by parents worldwide come to their children, change isn’t going to happen soon.
Just recently, a well-coordinated cyber criminal group has successfully stolen from a massive firm with an amount that amounts to $13 million in only a single day from the ATMs that are available in six different countries. This heist focused on stealing from the Fidelity National Information Services Inc. (FIS), a company that processes debit cards that are prepaid. According to a security researcher named Brian Krebs and his sources, what the hackers did first was to get into the firm’s network and from that obtained unauthorized access to the database of the company where the balances of its customers including their private information, debit card information, savings and investment plans are stored.
Basically, the hackers, with all the information and the total access that they have could have saved all the information that was found there but given that they would not take any risk and do it for one day and disappear while withdrawing as much money as possible was the way to go for them. It is suspected that the crime is done by a group that is more than 5 but probably less than 10. In withdrawing all the money, the criminals did it in a very crafty way.
First, they obtained more than 20 legitimate cards from the owners since they now have access to the information behind each account. Second, they eliminated the withdrawal limit of each card in order to fully maximize how much they can withdraw in a single day and avoid being tempted to go back another day after the limit has been lifted. Third, they duplicated each card and had transferred them to people they are working with in Greece, Russia, Spain, Sweden, Ukraine and the United Kingdom in an effort to withdraw at the same time from different machines to further increase their total withdrawing limit. Up to now, the criminals are not yet caught but authorities suspect them as the same people behind the similar incidents that happened in Russia and in Estonia.
If you currently own an enterprise, company or a site then you are never secured enough to be impenetrable to these types of breaches. Even as secured as a company is in terms of the security plus given the fact that they are a bank that focuses on optimum security, they are still susceptible to cyber crimes just like with any other companies. You see, in order to fully structure your information security system in such a way that it can lessen the risk; you must first test it out through penetration testing. This is easily done if you hire professional who have undergone penetration testing training to test out your system.
In penetration testing, the protection system that you currently have is going to be tested by letting it be attacked by malicious codes in order to know if there are any weakness points in your system and also to identify its weaknesses. However, it doesn’t mean that your system will be infiltrated by these codes that you have set it but it means it will only detect holes in your protection that may not be aware of. Along with that, it is very essential that you man your protection system with professionals who are experienced in pen test and professionals who have undergone a penetration testing training.
Therefore, if you desire to improve your system while continually updating not only through the updates but also through letting malicious codes penetrate, then doing penetration testing is highly recommended.
The International Council of E-Commerce Consultants (EC-Council) is a member-based organization that certifies individuals in cybersecurity and e-commerce. It is the owner and developer of 20 security certifications including penetration testing training. EC-Council has trained over 90,000 security professionals and certified more than 40,000 members.

by Gerome on September 07, 2011 10:16:45 AM There are different types of web hosting services to choose from. Selection of a type that your web host depends on your needs and functionality of your site. Hosting is basically classified into two types - dedicated and shared hosting. A dedicated hosting service uses the entire server without sharing it with other sites. Shared accommodation on the other hand, uses a server that is shared with other sites. In the middle, usually profitable because users share the cost of server maintenance.
But choose the right type of web host for your website is a tricky business, especially if you do not want to pay for something you do not really need. Using a web hosting service especially from a supplier should be carefully considered. So how can you find an appropriate web hosting service for you? Your choice depends on your website features and content. If your site has dynamic content, there is good reason to use a dedicated hosting service. If you do not need to change your server, because your content is static, you're probably better off using a shared hosting service, which can be a free or paid.
With free web hosting, you can use the service for free, but visitors are constantly exposed to advertising because they share a domain name with other users. The service charge on the other side you can use your own domain name and programming support. But the cost of the service is money well spent considering the benefits associated with the use of a shared hosting service. So if your site does not require software development beyond the capacity of the provider, a paid service of shared hosting is good for you.
Shared hosting providers are responsible for administering the system and give you a free server maintenance. This should, however, because the server is used by several users. But is this type of service is always helpful, because the cost of using systems that are more advanced, you may not be able to afford themselves. Read more |
