WATERFALL MODEL

AGILE - WHY
• Individuals and Interactions over processes and tools
• Working Software over comprehensive documentation
• Customer Collaboration over contract negotiation
• Responding to Change over following a plan

AGILE
• Agile is a time boxed, iterative approach to software delivery that builds software
incrementally from the start of the project, instead of trying to deliver it all at once
near the end.

INTEGRATIONIntegration: is the process of integrating.
Jokes APIs:
1- Get Random Joke – Call Jokes APIs
2- Translate Joke – Call google translator APIs
3- Send Joke to phone – Call SMS APIs

WEBSERVICE
Webservice: is any piece of software that makes itself available
over the internet and uses a standardized XML messaging system.
XML is used to encode all communications to a web service.
For example, a client invokes a web service by sending an XML
message, then waits for a corresponding XML response.
As all communication is in XML, web services are not tied to any one
operating system or programming language--Java can talk with
Perl; Windows applications can talk with Unix applications..
APIs

SOAPSOAP: Simple Object Access Protocol.

Security
Hardware, Software, Data

SECURITY
• Know as cyber security or IT security, is the protection of computer systems from
the theft and damage to their hardware, software or information, as well as
from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide.
It’s all about DATA

the theft and damage to their hardware, software or information, as well as
from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide.
Hardware Security
Software Security
Data Security

DATA SECURITY - DATA
• Data is distinct pieces of information, usually formatted in a special way. All
software is divided into two general categories: data and programs. Programs are
collections of instructions for manipulating data.
• Data can exist in a variety of forms

DATA SECURITY
• protecting digital data, such as those in a database, from destructive forces and
from the unwanted actions of unauthorized users, such as a cyberattack or a data
breach.

DATA PROTECTION
• Disk encryption
• Software-based security solutions encrypt the data to protect it from theft.
However, a malicious program or a hacker could corrupt the data in order to make
it unrecoverable, making the system unusable.
• Hardware-based security solutions can prevent read and write access to data and
hence offer very strong protection against tampering and unauthorized access.
(e.g. MFA)
• Backups
• Data masking
• Data erasure
• Data Encryption (Server/Client Side)

DATA PROTECTION
DISK ENCRYPTION
• Disk encryption: is a technology which protects information by converting it into
unreadable code that cannot be deciphered easily by unauthorized people. Disk
encryption uses disk encryption software or hardware to encrypt every bit of data that
goes on a disk or disk volume. It is used to prevent unauthorized access to data
storage.

DATA PROTECTION
BACKUPS
• Backup: the process of backing up, refers to the copying and archiving of
computer data so it may be used to restore the original after a data loss event. The verb
form is to back up in two words, whereas the noun is backup.

DATA PROTECTION
DATA MASKING
• Data masking: is the process of hiding original data with random characters or data.

DATA PROTECTION
DATA ERASURE
• Data erasure: (data clearing or data wiping) is a software-based method of overwriting
the data that aims to completely destroy all electronic data residing on a hard disk drive or
other digital media by using zeros and ones to overwrite data onto all sectors of the device

DATA PROTECTION

DATA SECURITY
QUESTIONS?

SOFTWARE SECURITY
Computer security software or cybersecurity software is any computer program designed to enhance
information security. The defense of computers against intrusion and unauthorized use of resources is called
computer security. Similarly, the defense of computer networks is called network security.

A MALICIOUS ATTACK
• A malicious attack is an attempt to forcefully abuse or take advantage of
someone's computer, whether through computer viruses, social engineering,
phishing, or other types of social engineering.
Email - Web Content – Legitimate/reward Sites - File Downloads
• Malware (Adware, Spyware, Trojan Horse, Crimeware, Viruses, Worms)
• Social Engineering (Phishing, Baiting, Spam)

EMAIL PHISHING
is the attempt to obtain sensitive information such as usernames, passwords,
and credit card details (and money), often for malicious reasons, by disguising as a
trustworthy entity in an electronic communication.

HARDWARE SECURITY
2. Hardware Security Module (HSM): is a physical computing device that safeguards and
manages digital keys for strong authentication and provides cryptoprocessing.
These modules traditionally come in the form of a plug-in card or an external device that attaches
directly to a computer or network server.

SECURITY POLICIES
COMPLIANCES
Security Policies: is a definition of what it means to be secure for a system, organization or other entity.
For an organization, it addresses the constraints on behaviour of its members as well as constraints imposed
on adversaries by mechanisms such as doors, locks, keys and walls.

CRYPTOCURRENCY
• Satoshi Nakamoto, the unknown inventor of Bitcoin, the first and still most important
cryptocurrency, never intended to invent a currency.
“A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash
System.“
Peer-to-peer file sharing is the distribution and sharing of digital media using peer-
to-peer (P2P) networking technology. P2P file sharing allows users to access media
files such as books, music, movies, and games using a P2P software program that
searches for other connected computers on a P2P network to locate the desired
content

CRYPTOCURRENCY
• Satoshi Nakamoto, the unknown inventor of Bitcoin, the first and still most important
cryptocurrency, never intended to invent a currency.
• Decentralized, No Central Authority.
• so anyone with access to the Internet can transfer money to anybody anywhere in the
world.
• Limited entries in a database no one can change without fulfilling specific conditions.
• Shared Ledger - Blockchain
• Encrypted using SHA 256
“Peer-to-peer Decentralised Electronic Cash System.“

CENTRALIZED DIGITAL CURRENCY
Double-spending is a potential flaw in a digital
cash scheme in which the same single digital token can
be spent more than once. This is possible because a
digital token consists of a digital file that can be duplicated
or falsified.[1]
Example:
You go to Starbucks and order a cappuccino worth $10.
You pay in cash. Now that $10 in cash is in the cash vault
of Starbucks. By all means, you simply cannot spend the
same $10 somewhere else to make another purchase.

BITCOIN MINING
Bitcoin mining is the process by which
transactions are verified and added to
the public ledger, known as the block
chain, and also the means through which
New bitcoin are released.
50 BTC half-ed each four years.
21,000,00 BTC forever!
Miners verify balance by calculating
All previous transactions for particular user.

DOUBLE SPEND CONFIRMATION
Double-spending is a potential flaw in a digital cash scheme in which the same single digital token can be spent
more than once. This is possible because a digital token consists of a digital file that can be duplicated or falsified.[1]
1- Alice Purchases a product from Bob
2- Alice will create two bitcoin transactions; one that include payments
for the product or service he seeks from Bob, the other pays the same
amount to himself/herself.
3- Alice will broadcast the “A to B” transaction and then
start secretly mining the block that includes the “A to A”
payment.
Once he/she successfully mines this block, further blocks will be added to it.
4- Bob will give the service or product to Alice,
on seeing the transaction on the public ledger, whether or not the
transaction was confirmed, if he/she doesn’t wait for the confirmation
to send the products.
5- Alice can be lucky and the attack succeeds ,

BLOCKCHAIN
originally block chain,[4][5] is a continuously growing list
of records, called blocks, which are linked and secured
using cryptography.[1][6] Each block typically contains
a hash pointer as a link to a previous
block,[6] a timestamp and transaction data.[7] By design,
blockchains are inherently resistant to modification of
the data. Harvard Business Review defines it as "an
open, distributed ledger that can record transactions
between two parties efficiently and in a verifiable and
permanent way."[8] For use as a distributed ledger, a
blockchain is typically managed by a peer-to-
peer network collectively adhering to a protocol for
validating new blocks. Once recorded, the data in any
given block cannot be altered retroactively without the
alteration of all subsequent blocks, which requires
collusion of the network majority.

BLOCKCHAIN
• Public
• Private
• Consortium

BLOCKCHAIN
APPLICATIONS
Is just a contract automates transactions
committing and rollback.
