Technology Of The Internet Of Things
Abstract–Due to the vulnerable nature of the Internet of Things (IOT) the security and privacy are those important issues for the IOT which attracted
lots of focus in recent years. The lack of efficient and lightweight authentication method in IOT can make it a delicious vulnerable victim for several
impersonate–based attacks. This paper proposes a new authentication mechanism for IOT called Certificate–based Identity Resolution (CIR) which tries
to protect IOT terminal nodes from attacks by applying a lightweight identity resolution method and using a Local Certificate Generator in order to
simplify the node authentication process. Keywords–Internet Of Things; Certificate–based Identity Resolution; Authentication; Access control I.
Introduction In the last few years, the Internet of Things (IoT) has been widespread like a boom word, where virtually any device having an Internet
connection can be communicated and is accessible through the Internet. By making a secure user interactions with IoT is very important for making
the notion of "things everywhere" to be successful. Many researchers are focusing on developing and improving the implementation and security of
IoT based devices. Two of the major aspects for enabling the security of IoT are Authentication and Access Control to perform secure communication
between devices. In this paper we will present a novel local–authentication process which will enhance the simplicity of node authentication, keeping it

The Web Application Requires Security
The web application requires security in order to protect customer data, as part of the application requires the customer to input their name and phone
number. Also in order to prohibit unauthorised access and it prevents service interruptions, so Training4U can always provide a good service. Securing
the application ensures that only administrators can access the admin pages, and instructors and customers can access their pages through the internet. In
order to do this for the administrators a login form would be created for the admin page so that they are the only people who can access them. Also the
customer's data needs to be protected both while it is being transmitted to the server using secure socket layers and to secure the web app which
therefore protects customer data, a security realm has to be set up in the application server.
to prevent unauthorized access that implement a login form for the admin page and only administrators can access this page then.protects customer's
data as the instructor and customer pages do not include information about customers or instructors. The procedure for this is the administrator sends a
request to the server to access an authorized resource, which then the server then notices and this sends the login page to the administrator. Using the
provided form the administrator inputs username and password if this is registered then they are authorized to view the protected resource.

Application Of A Digital Certificate
Joel – Abstract: When one submits a request for information to a service, it being a HTTP or a SOAP request SMTP or other protocols, one must
ensure that the service is indeed the entity that it claims to be (Rouse, 2013). In public key encryption, the verification of the public key origin is
especially important when one is submitting encrypted information over the internet which it may be sensitive. Digital Certificates are the main
method to verify identity of entities holding public keys rendering services over the internet (Image 1) (Rouse, 2013). Image 1 – Accepting Connection
Image 1.2 Browser HTTPS connection with a valid certificate. Top Google Chrome, bottom IE 10 Image 2– Refusing Connection A digital certificate
has a series of properties including a date of expiration (Gibson, 2014). When a certificate is minted, it has a day of which it will expire. When the
certificate expire, a new one will be minted. But if there is a certificate theft, the certificate will be alive for the length of its life. The certificate owner
will mint a new one, but there is another certificate in the wild with equal legitimacy which can be used to falsify someone's identity (Gibson, 2014). A
stolen certificate can be a danger to secure internet communication because a bad actor can impersonate a legitimate entity and thus potentially stealing
encrypted information (Gibson, 2014). There isn't a good way to revoke certificates. This paper will analyze and study the best

Mother's Day Gift Ideas
4 Great Mother's Day Gift Ideas
Hallmark and FTD have made a fortune on gift buying for mom on Mother's Day, but it might be time to move away from the standard bouquet of
flowers and the frilly, glittery card and embrace some new gift ideas. Mother's Day is officially and unofficially recognized in most countries
worldwide. Whether or not it is called Mother's Day depends upon the country celebrating it. One thing is true no matter where you are, and that is
that mothers are honored and given gifts like flowers from their children and grandchildren. As evidenced by statistics from AT&T, more long distance
phone calls are made on Mother's Day than any other day of the year.
Since mother is such an important figure in your life, maybe you should break away from tradition and give her a gift that is not flowers and candy.

There are any number of websites devoted to creating and sending a gift basket to mom or grandmom, but they lack the personalization that comes
from creating one from scratch. It does not take a lot of money to create a basket, and you may even end up saving money by doing it yourself.
Baskets are readily available at any craft or big box store in the gardening section. They are normally constructed of wicker or a woven material and

WHY SECURITY FAIL
Exposure of confidential data
A web server is the wrong place for the storage of confidential information as it is
Information that is made accessible by the public unless intended. To reduce the risk of
Exposure it is important to limit the methods by which information can be accessed
And Limit the people who can access it as it can also lead to loss of files. Authentication is a main requirement for websites. It means asking people to
prove their identity. The most common ways of authentication are passwords and digital signatures.
Modification of Data
Modification to files could include changes to data files or executable files. A hacker's motivation for Altering a data file Might be to vandalise a
company's site or to obtain fraudulent Benefits. Replacing The Data can be protected from modification as it travels over the network by using digital

listed as md5RSA or similar are affected. Such certificates that include strange or suspicious fields or other anomalies may be fraudulent since there are
no reliable signs of tampering it must be noted that this workaround is error–prone and impractical for most users. For the secondary affect, Cisco
announced that the hashing algorithm used in the digital certificates on the Cisco ASA cannot be changed; however, the ASA is unlikely to be
affected by the attacks described in this research due to the way certificates are generated on the device. Also the Cisco IOS CA may be vulnerable

It works on the basis of 'tickets'. The client authenticates itself to the Authentication Server which forwards the username to a key distribution center
(KDC). The KDC issues a ticket–granting ticket (TGT), which is time stamped and encrypts the secret key and returns the encrypted result to the user's
workstation. This is done infrequently, typically at user logon; the TGT expires at some point although it may be transparently renewed by the user's
session manager while they are logged in.
When the client wants to communicate with another node, then it needs to send the TGT to the ticket–granting service (TGS), which usually shares
the same host as the KDC. The Service must be registered at TGT with a Service Principal Name (SPN). The client uses the SPN to request access to
this service. After verifying that the TGT is valid and that the user is permitted to access the requested service, the TGS issues ticket and session keys
to the client. The client then sends the ticket to the service server (SS) along with its service request.

A digital postmark is another entity entirely. A digital postmark, or border router packet marking as it is sometimes called, is a network security
measure that can allow organizations to trace the origins of unwanted spam or other forms of malicious attacks. This process works by placing
identifying data onto messages much like a conventional postmark, hence the name. Because the information is added at the router level, there is no
way for hackers or other intruders to falsify IP addresses or other information that might be used to bypass security on a network. As you can see,

Why Ssl Is Important Part Of Internet Communication
With the web in an uproar over privacy and encryption, the newbie webmaster might get overwhelmed with all the acronyms, technical details and
server configurations. Deciphering the content on popular wikis such as Wikipedia just makes it more frustrating when descriptions get too technical.
Here is a breakdown of SSL, what it can do for you, why it's important and some simple steps to get your own website encrypted.
What is SSL?
SSL stands for "secured sockets layer." Whenever you prefix a domain address with "HTTPS," you're sending encrypted communication across the
Internet to a web server. SSL encrypts the communication between the website and your browser, which means that any information you pass over the
Internet is jumbled in a way that only the recipient can decipher.
Importance of SSL
Understanding the mechanics of SSL is difficult, but it helps to understand why SSL is important and how your Internet communications transfer to a
recipient. Once you understand these basic concepts, you'll understand why SSL is an important part of Internet communication.
When you type a website name into your browser, your browser first does a lookup for the domain's IP address. Once the IP address is found, the
browser makes a request to the server for a connection. The server accepts, and then it sends you the website's HTML for your browser to display.

An Example Of Alice And Bob
In Public Key Cryptosystem there are two keys used i.e. a public key and a private key. Consider an example of Alice and Bob. I Bob wants to send a
message to Alice, Bob uses Alice's public key to encrypt the message and then send that encrypted message to Alice. Alice uses her private key to
decrypt the message. Here how does Bob know the Public Key of Alice? Alice might have distributed its Public key through a secure communication
channel. This method is applicable only if there is trust/familiarity between both Bob and Alice. If Bob and Alice does not know each other this whole
method fails.[28]
This drawback is removed by using a trusted third party (TTP) to uniquely bind public keys to users or another entity such as an organization. This is
the place we require a PKI (Public Key Infrastructure). A PKI has one more trusted elements called Certification Authorities (CAs). For instance,
Erin is a CA. CA issues Alice a certificate (which contains the public key of Alice) signed by the CA 's public key after checking Alice 's
credentials. Bob can now recover Alice 's certificate and confirm it is authentic by checking the signature on it. Certificates may should be revoked
later because of different reasons. For instance, if Alice 's private key is stolen, she will need to request that the CA deny its certificate. How does
Bob know whether a certificate is revoked? The CA keeps up a revocation list which permits Bob to confirm if a given certificate is revoked or not. The

Fundamentals Of Ssl Certificates And Certificate...
The Fundamentals of SSL Certificates and Certificate Authorities (CA) By adding an SSL certificate, Experts Exchange members not only protect their
business but also increase customer confidence by safely encrypting their customers' most sensitive data. For online transactions, an SSL certificate
turns sensitive data into encrypted secure code. The web browser then checks the SSL certificate to make sure that the website is legitimate. Once
verified, the web browser and server processes the encoded information. This helps to ensure that the sensitive data delivered between the web browser
and server is handled safely, securely, and that the website is PCI (Payment Card Industry) compliant. Certificate Authorities (CA) play an integral role
in the entire SSL process because they're the ones issuing these digital certificates. In essence, digital certificates, such as an SSL, are small verifiable
data files containing identity credentials that help authenticate the online identity of people, websites, and devices. Each digital certificate includes
valuable information like the expiration date of the certificate, the owner's name and other important information, along with a public key – a value
provided by some designated authority as an encryption key. As a trusted entity issuing these digital certificates, the CA must meet strict and detailed
criteria before being accepted as a member. Once accepted, the CA is authorized to distribute SSL certificates. The longer the

CAs can be public or in–house. Each have positive and negative characteristics. In–house is easy to use and manage because the company is not
dependent on an external entity for certificates. There is no per–certificate cost. The down side of in–house is that it is more complicated than using
external. With in–house CA, the security and accountability of Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is completely on the organization's shoulder. This is
bad if the company is small and does not understand or have the resources to put toward PKI. External parties tend to trust a digital certificate signed
by a trusted external CA over a certificate from an in–house CA. Integration between an external Certification Authority (CA) and the infrastructure of

Digital : Digital Signature And Encryption
1. Digital Certificates
Digital signature and Encryption together protects data in the internet. Digital signature is the internet ID that is given to a person to identify
himself that who is and how they can be trustable. They are used together to protect the data that are confidential from the intruders and threats. A
digital certificate is a file on your computer a pair, you can use it to create the digital equivalent of a handwritten signature and seal of the
envelope. Each file is divided into two parts: a public key and a private key. The public key is shared part; the private key is you and only you
should be able to access parts. Your computer and the program learn how to share only the public part of your key so that others can see them, while
still maintaining the security of your private key.
Any Email and Bank transaction application are common application that has digital signatures and encryption process. For example, when sending
e–mail, you can connect your digital certificate signed message through digital. Once the message they received, the recipient can verify that it came
from you via e–mail to view the attachment on small, which contains your public key information. This protects you people who might try to look like

Solving HealthCare's eMail Security Problem
Abstract
While healthcare organizations have come to depend heavily on electronic mail, they do so without a significant email security infrastructure. New
Federal law and regulation place new obligations on the organizations to either secure their email systems or drastically restrict their use. This paper
discusses email security in a healthcare context. The paper considers and recommends solutions to the healthcare organization's problem in securing its
mail. Because email encryption will soon be a categorical requirement for healthcare organizations, email encryption is discussed in some detail. The

Although these security standards have not yet been finalized, in August of 1998, HHS did publish in 45 CFR Part 142 a proposal for that Security
Standard. That Notice of
Proposed Rule Making did include a number of specific security implementation features. Particularly relevant to email use is a specification for
encryption of health information communicated over any network for which the transmitter cannot control access (45 CFR Part 142.308[d][1][ii]).
This restriction clearly is intended to apply to the healthcare organization's Internet bound electronic mail.
This paper broadly outlines steps that healthcare organizations can take to ensure the security of their electronic mail use. A substantial portion of this
activity has a "Security
101' aspect to it. Healthcare organizations are generally exposed to the same Internet borne threats as any other type organization. As a result,
healthcare organizations do well to follow the general recommendations for email security provided in documents such as NIST's "Guidelines for
Electronic Mail Security". Healthcare organizations do have business imperatives and legal obligations, however, that may encumber routine
application of email security best practice. Therefore, this paper will provide a healthcare industry context to its discussion of electronic mail security.

We consider the sensors S={S1,S2, S3, .....Sx} are deployed where x is the population of the deployed sensors. Nodes are assumed to be deployed

The event generation in the network, is considered to be random. Event is sensed by the neighboring sensor nodes where the event has occurred.
These neighboring nodes will try to report the event occurred to the sink or base station through anonymous authentication, maintaining the privacy of
the event as well as privacy of the nodes in terms of location and identity. So the neighboring nodes of the occurred event will form a ring signature

Furthermore, fraudsters use social engineering to deceive the bank customers and gain access to sensitive online credentials (Schneider, 2013, p. 480).
Unfortunately, fraudsters use phishing to hold clients' customer data through making phone calls or sending emails to determine information on the
payment cards. Moreover, the information obtained through phishing enables the fraudsters to obtain access and make withdrawals, thus forging the
customers' identity. For example, backdoor programs, such as Cart32, steal customer data (Schneider, 2013, p.430). Therefore, phishing not only
impacts negatively internet banking but also poses threats to the bank payment system.
According to Schneider (2013), the phishing scheme involves the fraudsters using stenography in spoofed emails to lead bank customers to a prototype
of their bank's websites that look legitimate. However, the fake website would be designed to steal their information (p. 427). Thus, the websites save

The massive unemployment then must have been an indication of a bigger problem, as we have now come to learn.
The results for the Kenya certificate of Secondary Education for 2016 (KSCE) seem to have revealed the genesis of the unemployment and
unemployabilty challenges. There is no way that students with poor or compromised grades would end up becoming better during their university
education, or thereafter in life. Further, no amount of education or certificates can improve their chances of being productive in the future. It is like
feeding a Boran cow with daily bran and expecting it to increase the milk yield.
Meanwhile, the principles of Total Quality Management (TQM) advocate a concept termed as Quality First Deployment (QFD). It is about ensuring

securely exchange data over the internet and networks to confirm the identity of the other party. Without PKI, sensitive information can still be
encrypted and exchanged, but there would be no assurance of the identity of the other party. Any form of sensitive data exchanged over the Internet is
reliant on PKI for security.
A standard PKI consists of several components: hardware, software, policies and standards, administration, distribution of keys and digital certificates.
Digital certificates are at the heart of PKI as they confirm the identity of the certificate subject and bind that identity to the public key contained in the
certificate. A typical PKI includes several key elements. A trusted party, known as acertificate authority or CA, acts as the root of trust and provides

File security falls into two categories, encryption and access. Access to files can mean physical access to a computer with unsecured files or access
via user permissions or privileges in the form of access control lists (ACLs) (Strengthen Your Users' File Security, 2003). The files kept on a server
with NTFS storage can be locked to prevent anyone who does not have the correct permissions from opening them. This is secure but can be bypassed
with physical access to an open computer and should not be used for sensitive information. The other method of securing files is by encrypting the
information in the files using an Encrypting File System (EFS), which employs public key encryption privileges (Strengthen ... Show more content on

Secret and private keys are very similar and are often used interchangeably. The difference is that secret keys are used for both encryption and
decryption, while a private key is part of the public/private key system and is used only for decryption (Cryptography, 2005). In both cases, the key
may be known only to a single person or a limited group of people in order to keep the key secure.
Public–Key Infrastructure (PKI) is a method of verifying users on a network, while a digital certificate is a reference from a neutral company that
confirms the identity of an internet site (Shay, 2004, p. 321) and (Tomsho, G., Tittel, E. Johnson, D., 2004, P. 378). The digital certificate is issued by a
Certificate Authority (CA) such as Verisign, and a registration authority (RA) that acts as a reference to identify an entity to a user of the website,
and uses a directory that holds the certificate and can revoke a company's digital status. The PKI technology is at the core of the digital certificates
used in almost all transactions on the internet. The PKI uses a cryptographic key pair, one of which is public and one which is private, to authenticate
the owner of the certificate (PKI, 2002).

  • 1. Technology Of The Internet Of Things Abstract–Due to the vulnerable nature of the Internet of Things (IOT) the security and privacy are those important issues for the IOT which attracted lots of focus in recent years. The lack of efficient and lightweight authentication method in IOT can make it a delicious vulnerable victim for several impersonate–based attacks. This paper proposes a new authentication mechanism for IOT called Certificate–based Identity Resolution (CIR) which tries to protect IOT terminal nodes from attacks by applying a lightweight identity resolution method and using a Local Certificate Generator in order to simplify the node authentication process. Keywords–Internet Of Things; Certificate–based Identity Resolution; Authentication; Access control I. Introduction In the last few years, the Internet of Things (IoT) has been widespread like a boom word, where virtually any device having an Internet connection can be communicated and is accessible through the Internet. By making a secure user interactions with IoT is very important for making the notion of "things everywhere" to be successful. Many researchers are focusing on developing and improving the implementation and security of IoT based devices. Two of the major aspects for enabling the security of IoT are Authentication and Access Control to perform secure communication between devices.

The Web Application Requires Security The web application requires security in order to protect customer data, as part of the application requires the customer to input their name and phone number. Also in order to prohibit unauthorised access and it prevents service interruptions, so Training4U can always provide a good service. Securing the application ensures that only administrators can access the admin pages, and instructors and customers can access their pages through the internet. In order to do this for the administrators a login form would be created for the admin page so that they are the only people who can access them. Also the customer's data needs to be protected both while it is being transmitted to the server using secure socket layers and to secure the web app which therefore protects customer data, a security realm has to be set up in the application server. to prevent unauthorized access that implement a login form for the admin page and only administrators can access this page then.protects customer's data as the instructor and customer pages do not include information about customers or instructors. The procedure for this is the administrator sends a request to the server to access an authorized resource, which then the server then notices and this sends the login page to the administrator. Using the provided form the administrator inputs username and password if this is registered then they are authorized to view the protected resource. would be to implement secure socket ...

  • 3. Application Of A Digital Certificate Joel – Abstract: When one submits a request for information to a service, it being a HTTP or a SOAP request SMTP or other protocols, one must ensure that the service is indeed the entity that it claims to be (Rouse, 2013). In public key encryption, the verification of the public key origin is especially important when one is submitting encrypted information over the internet which it may be sensitive. Digital Certificates are the main method to verify identity of entities holding public keys rendering services over the internet (Image 1) (Rouse, 2013). Image 1 – Accepting Connection Image 1.2 Browser HTTPS connection with a valid certificate. Top Google Chrome, bottom IE 10 Image 2– Refusing Connection A digital certificate has a series of properties including a date of expiration (Gibson, 2014). When a certificate is minted, it has a day of which it will expire. When the certificate expire, a new one will be minted. But if there is a certificate theft, the certificate will be alive for the length of its life. The certificate owner will mint a new one, but there is another certificate in the wild with equal legitimacy which can be used to falsify someone's identity (Gibson, 2014). A stolen certificate can be a danger to secure internet communication because a bad actor can impersonate a legitimate entity and thus potentially stealing encrypted information (Gibson, 2014). There isn't a good way to revoke certificates. This paper will analyze and study the best ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Mother's Day Gift Ideas 4 Great Mother's Day Gift Ideas Hallmark and FTD have made a fortune on gift buying for mom on Mother's Day, but it might be time to move away from the standard bouquet of flowers and the frilly, glittery card and embrace some new gift ideas. Mother's Day is officially and unofficially recognized in most countries worldwide. Whether or not it is called Mother's Day depends upon the country celebrating it. One thing is true no matter where you are, and that is that mothers are honored and given gifts like flowers from their children and grandchildren. As evidenced by statistics from AT&T, more long distance phone calls are made on Mother's Day than any other day of the year. Since mother is such an important figure in your life, maybe you should break away from tradition and give her a gift that is not flowers and candy. 1 – Gift Baskets There are any number of websites devoted to creating and sending a gift basket to mom or grandmom, but they lack the personalization that comes from creating one from scratch. It does not take a lot of money to create a basket, and you may even end up saving money by doing it yourself. Baskets are readily available at any craft or big box store in the gardening section. They are normally constructed of wicker or a woven material and come in a huge selection of sizes. You can tailor the basket to match your mom's personality or her hobbies.

The vulnerability in question is a weakness in the MD5 algorithm that would allow for collisions in output. As a result, attackers can generate cryptographic tokens or other data that illegitimately appear to be authentic. Now the secondary affect is that the MD5 hashes may allow for certificate spoofing on a Cisco ASA system. If an attacker was able to exploit this weakness on the University's cryptosystem, the said attacker could construct forged data in a variety of forms that will cause software using the MD5 algorithm to incorrectly identify it as... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Users of systems with the OpenSSL command line utility can view certificate properties using "openssl x509 –text" or a similar utility. Certificates listed as md5RSA or similar are affected. Such certificates that include strange or suspicious fields or other anomalies may be fraudulent since there are no reliable signs of tampering it must be noted that this workaround is error–prone and impractical for most users. For the secondary affect, Cisco announced that the hashing algorithm used in the digital certificates on the Cisco ASA cannot be changed; however, the ASA is unlikely to be affected by the attacks described in this research due to the way certificates are generated on the device. Also the Cisco IOS CA may be vulnerable to the attack described in this research when configured to utilize MD5 hashes in endpoint certificates, this is by default. The research that Cisco has mentioned for the weakness/vulnerability can be found here: http://tools.cisco.com/security/center/viewAlert.x?alertId=17341, listed below are (2) fixes that Cisco will be releasing for the Cisco ASA and the Cisco IOS CA. While Cisco does recognize the weakness/vulnerability in the MD5 algorithm, it plans to alter the signature algorithm used in digital certificates and modify the methods utilized in creation of CA and endpoint certificates.

The client authenticates itself to the Authentication Server which forwards the username to a key distribution center (KDC). The KDC issues a ticket–granting ticket (TGT), which is time stamped and encrypts the secret key and returns the encrypted result to the user's workstation. This is done infrequently, typically at user logon; the TGT expires at some point although it may be transparently renewed by the user's session manager while they are logged in. When the client wants to communicate with another node, then it needs to send the TGT to the ticket–granting service (TGS), which usually shares the same host as the KDC. The Service must be registered at TGT with a Service Principal Name (SPN). The client uses the SPN to request access to this service. After verifying that the TGT is valid and that the user is permitted to access the requested service, the TGS issues ticket and session keys to the client. The client then sends the ticket to the service server (SS) along with its service request.

Part–1 Remote Access and Service Redundancy What is Redundancy? And know about Redundancy. A Redundancy can have serval meanings. But commonly refers to spare hardware that is kept online or to duplicate data. Redundant can describe computer or network system components, such as fans, hard disk drives, server, operating systems, switches and telecommunication links that are installed to back up primary resources in case they fail. A well–known example of a redundant system is the redundant array of independent disks. It's called RAID. Redundant bits are extra binary digits that are generated and moved with a data transfer to ensure that no bits were lost during the data transfer. Redundant data can protect a storage array against data loss in the event of a hard disk failure. What are the advantage of Redundancy?

Of these differing methods, some of them sound similar, but provide differing levels of security. In the following paragraphs, I will try to explain the differences between some of the methods used. Explain the difference between historical and statistical logging. Logging is a simple way of keeping a record of activity on a network.

With historical logging, records are kept of all data passing through a particular network ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The recipient of a message using a digital certificate can obtain the public key associated with that particular certificate and then decode the message and verify that it did indeed originate from the proper source. With this information, the recipient is then able to send an encrypted reply. A digital postmark is another entity entirely. A digital postmark, or border router packet marking as it is sometimes called, is a network security measure that can allow organizations to trace the origins of unwanted spam or other forms of malicious attacks. This process works by placing identifying data onto messages much like a conventional postmark, hence the name. Because the information is added at the router level, there is no way for hackers or other intruders to falsify IP addresses or other information that might be used to bypass security on a network. As you can see, there are different aspects of network security. Each type protects the network and files on it in a different way. It is up to the network manager to decide which methods work best for his individual business needs, and he may apply some or all of the methods mentioned here.

Why Ssl Is Important Part Of Internet Communication With the web in an uproar over privacy and encryption, the newbie webmaster might get overwhelmed with all the acronyms, technical details and server configurations. Deciphering the content on popular wikis such as Wikipedia just makes it more frustrating when descriptions get too technical. Here is a breakdown of SSL, what it can do for you, why it's important and some simple steps to get your own website encrypted. What is SSL? SSL stands for "secured sockets layer." Whenever you prefix a domain address with "HTTPS," you're sending encrypted communication across the Internet to a web server. SSL encrypts the communication between the website and your browser, which means that any information you pass over the Internet is jumbled in a way that only the recipient can decipher. Importance of SSL Understanding the mechanics of SSL is difficult, but it helps to understand why SSL is important and how your Internet communications transfer to a recipient. Once you understand these basic concepts, you'll understand why SSL is an important part of Internet communication. When you type a website name into your browser, your browser first does a lookup for the domain's IP address. Once the IP address is found, the browser makes a request to the server for a connection. The server accepts, and then it sends you the website's HTML for your browser to display. Let's say you find a contact form on a website and want to send the owner a message. You type your ...

  • 18. An Example Of Alice And Bob In Public Key Cryptosystem there are two keys used i.e. a public key and a private key. Consider an example of Alice and Bob. I Bob wants to send a message to Alice, Bob uses Alice's public key to encrypt the message and then send that encrypted message to Alice. Alice uses her private key to decrypt the message. Here how does Bob know the Public Key of Alice? Alice might have distributed its Public key through a secure communication channel. This method is applicable only if there is trust/familiarity between both Bob and Alice. If Bob and Alice does not know each other this whole method fails.[28] This drawback is removed by using a trusted third party (TTP) to uniquely bind public keys to users or another entity such as an organization. This is the place we require a PKI (Public Key Infrastructure). A PKI has one more trusted elements called Certification Authorities (CAs). For instance, Erin is a CA. CA issues Alice a certificate (which contains the public key of Alice) signed by the CA 's public key after checking Alice 's credentials. Bob can now recover Alice 's certificate and confirm it is authentic by checking the signature on it. Certificates may should be revoked later because of different reasons. For instance, if Alice 's private key is stolen, she will need to request that the CA deny its certificate. How does Bob know whether a certificate is revoked? The CA keeps up a revocation list which permits Bob to confirm if a given certificate is revoked or not. The ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Tech (Software Engineering), NHCE, Bangalore, India Abstract: Wireless Sensor Network is a collection of homogeneous/heterogeneous wireless devices used to monitor the changes in the surrounding of the wireless device. Each wireless device present in the network has the capability of sensing the changes in the surrounding environment. Homogeneous sensors are those which have same computational power, energy etc. Each node is battery powered which is used to transmit the sensed data over the network. So efficient transmission of data in Wireless Sensor Network is important and to transmit the data unaltered over the network to the receiver security is important Clustering of Wireless Sensor Network is important to increase the network scalability. Cluster Based Wireless sensor Network (CWSN) are organised in hierarchical manner. In CWSN a leader node called Cluster Head (CH) is responsible for aggregation of data from the leaf nodes which are present in the Cluster. In this paper we will discuss how to transmit the data securely and efficiently over the network. 1.

  • 20. Fundamentals Of Ssl Certificates And Certificate... The Fundamentals of SSL Certificates and Certificate Authorities (CA) By adding an SSL certificate, Experts Exchange members not only protect their business but also increase customer confidence by safely encrypting their customers' most sensitive data. For online transactions, an SSL certificate turns sensitive data into encrypted secure code. The web browser then checks the SSL certificate to make sure that the website is legitimate. Once verified, the web browser and server processes the encoded information. This helps to ensure that the sensitive data delivered between the web browser and server is handled safely, securely, and that the website is PCI (Payment Card Industry) compliant. Certificate Authorities (CA) play an integral role in the entire SSL process because they're the ones issuing these digital certificates. In essence, digital certificates, such as an SSL, are small verifiable data files containing identity credentials that help authenticate the online identity of people, websites, and devices. Each digital certificate includes valuable information like the expiration date of the certificate, the owner's name and other important information, along with a public key – a value provided by some designated authority as an encryption key. As a trusted entity issuing these digital certificates, the CA must meet strict and detailed criteria before being accepted as a member. Once accepted, the CA is authorized to distribute SSL certificates. The longer the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Furthermore, some of the top cyber experts in the industry were available afterwards, to answer one–on–one questions. Even though, the one–on–one was not a part of my package, I still learned some valuable information for the seminar. For example, the seminar devoted a few hours to internet banking and provided the banking industry with tips on how to thwart attacks and what forms those attacks might come in. After the seminar concluded, I went to grab a quick bite to eat in the hotel restaurant, before catching my flight back. Thus, I was excited to share all the information I learned with my...

Unfortunately, fraudsters use phishing to hold clients' customer data through making phone calls or sending emails to determine information on the payment cards. Moreover, the information obtained through phishing enables the fraudsters to obtain access and make withdrawals, thus forging the customers' identity. For example, backdoor programs, such as Cart32, steal customer data (Schneider, 2013, p.430). Therefore, phishing not only impacts negatively internet banking but also poses threats to the bank payment system. According to Schneider (2013), the phishing scheme involves the fraudsters using stenography in spoofed emails to lead bank customers to a prototype of their bank's websites that look legitimate. However, the fake website would be designed to steal their information (p. 427). Thus, the websites save customers financial information through coaxing bank customers to learn their credit card numbers and social security numbers. Moreover, the fraudsters may use advertisements or deliver emails that appear to be sent by IB bank. Further, the advertisements contain website links that replicate customers' bank's website. Moreover, fraudsters may use mobile communication to ask bank customers about the information concerning their banks ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Information About a New Pradigm, Cloud Computing Cloud Computing is a new paradigm in which computing resources:(i) Processing, (ii) Memory and (iii) Storage are not physically present at the user's location. The proposed system will create the multiple users to monitor and handle the data integration physically in the Third Party Auditor (TPA). A utilization of homomorphic linear authenticator and random mask will guarantees that the TPA will unable to retrieve any information / data content stored in the cloud server during auditing process. In the proposed work, the reinforcement of TPA handles multiple audit sessions from an outsourced data files and extend the existed Privacy–Preserving Public Auditing Protocol (P3AP) into an Multi–User Public Auditing Protocol (MUPAP). It performs an efficient Multiple Auditing Tasks (MAT) to typically eliminate the burden of tedious and expensive auditing task and improves outsourced data leakage Cloud computing is more convenient, on–demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources that can be hastily provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction. Outsourced data is merely the farming out of services to a third party auditor. By data outsourcing, users can be relieved from the trouble of local data storage and maintenance. But during this sharing of the data, there are huge chances of data vulnerability, leakage or threats. So, to prevent this problem a data leakage reduction scheme has been ...

Quality Education Critical for Advancement of Informal Leadership Most people perceive leadership only in terms of positions of power, where they can exert their influence in either achieving their personalized desires or making things done their way. However, there are other forms of leadership, which invaluably lead to not only personal, but also organizational and national progress. Consider expertise as a guide to venturing into leadership. One is able to influence change anywhere only through acquiring superior skills, which could be applied in a vocation or profession. Another excellent example is moral authority. People who are honest, trustworthy and thus believable tend to positively create their own sphere of influence, not only ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The massive unemployment then must have been an indication of a bigger problem, as we have now come to learn. The results for the Kenya certificate of Secondary Education for 2016 (KSCE) seem to have revealed the genesis of the unemployment and unemployabilty challenges. There is no way that students with poor or compromised grades would end up becoming better during their university education, or thereafter in life. Further, no amount of education or certificates can improve their chances of being productive in the future. It is like feeding a Boran cow with daily bran and expecting it to increase the milk yield. Meanwhile, the principles of Total Quality Management (TQM) advocate a concept termed as Quality First Deployment (QFD). It is about ensuring quality input during the initial stages of the production process. In the school system context, it means admitting only the best students for university education. When this condition is observed, it is highly likely that only a few of the best students will end up becoming mediocre along the education path and thereafter. The converse is also true. When we feed the university education system with students who have benefited from leaked examinations, continued mediocrity in the economy and entire national spectrum is guaranteed. Thus, based on the Kenya Certificate of Secondary education (KCSE) results for last year, it's clearly evident that innumerable students with compromised grades have been ...

  • 42. Public Key Infrastructure Public key infrastructure, known as PKI supports the distribution and identification of public encryption keys which allows users and computers to securely exchange data over the internet and networks to confirm the identity of the other party. Without PKI, sensitive information can still be encrypted and exchanged, but there would be no assurance of the identity of the other party. Any form of sensitive data exchanged over the Internet is reliant on PKI for security. A standard PKI consists of several components: hardware, software, policies and standards, administration, distribution of keys and digital certificates. Digital certificates are at the heart of PKI as they confirm the identity of the certificate subject and bind that identity to the public key contained in the certificate. A typical PKI includes several key elements. A trusted party, known as acertificate authority or CA, acts as the root of trust and provides services that authenticate the identity of ...

The in–house approach provides the maximum level of control. Certificates and keys can be made any time with little wait time. However, the cost of software licenses, maintenance fees, and the expense to purchase and deploy the entire supporting infrastructure can be big. Also add in training of a few employees or hiring new ones with the needed skills. The cost will pay for its self eventually. (Walder, Bob. July 2003) Outsourcing the PKI service will allow for faster implementation. The initial cost is low but will be continuous. There is no need for training or new employees. Availability will be the key deciding component. Will the outsourced company be available anytime? How long is the turnaround time when requesting a certificate? (Walder, Bob. July ...

  • 43. Network Security Concepts Essay Network Security Concepts File security falls into two categories, encryption and access. Access to files can mean physical access to a computer with unsecured files or access via user permissions or privileges in the form of access control lists (ACLs) (Strengthen Your Users' File Security, 2003). The files kept on a server with NTFS storage can be locked to prevent anyone who does not have the correct permissions from opening them. This is secure but can be bypassed with physical access to an open computer and should not be used for sensitive information. The other method of securing files is by encrypting the information in the files using an Encrypting File System (EFS), which employs public key encryption privileges (Strengthen ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Secret and private keys are very similar and are often used interchangeably. The difference is that secret keys are used for both encryption and decryption, while a private key is part of the public/private key system and is used only for decryption (Cryptography, 2005). In both cases, the key may be known only to a single person or a limited group of people in order to keep the key secure. Public–Key Infrastructure (PKI) is a method of verifying users on a network, while a digital certificate is a reference from a neutral company that confirms the identity of an internet site (Shay, 2004, p. 321) and (Tomsho, G., Tittel, E. Johnson, D., 2004, P. 378). The digital certificate is issued by a Certificate Authority (CA) such as Verisign, and a registration authority (RA) that acts as a reference to identify an entity to a user of the website, and uses a directory that holds the certificate and can revoke a company's digital status. The PKI technology is at the core of the digital certificates used in almost all transactions on the internet. The PKI uses a cryptographic key pair, one of which is public and one which is private, to authenticate the owner of the certificate (PKI, 2002).
