How to Prevent Hacking
Secure web programming plus end users' awareness are the last line of defense against attacks targeted at the corporate systems, particularly web applications, in the era of world-wide web.
Most web application attacks occur through Cross Site Scripting (XSS), and SQL Injection. On the other hand, most web application vulnerabilities arise from weak coding with failure to properly validate users' input, and failure to properly sanitize output while displaying the data to the visitors.
The literature also confirms the following web application weaknesses in 2010: 26% improper output handling, 22% improper input handling, and 15% insufficient authentication, and others.
Abdul Rahman Sherzad, lecturer at Computer Science Faculty of Herat University, and Ph.D. student at Technical University of Berlin gave a presentation at 12th IT conference on Higher Education for Afghanistan in MoHE, and then conducted a seminar at Hariwa Institute of Higher Education in Herat, Afghanistan introducing web application security threats by demonstrating the security problems that exist in corporate systems with a strong emphasis on secure development. Major security vulnerabilities, secure design and coding best practices when designing and developing web-based applications were covered.
The main objective of the presentation was raising awareness about the problems that might occur in web-application systems, as well as secure coding practices and principles. The presentation's aims were to build security awareness for web applications, to discuss the threat landscape and the controls users should use during the software development lifecycle, to introduce attack methods, to discuss approaches for discovering security vulnerabilities, and finally to discuss the basics of secure web development techniques and principles.

The ITMS is a guided system through a corporate turnaround based on over 1500 references, countless interviews and over 150 turnaround cases. It is applicable to virtually any situation and industry targeting the most common reasons why turnarounds fail while utilizing the success factors and strategies that led to successful turnarounds over the past 30 years.
The ITMS is based on project management techniques and existing restructuring methods and tools, However it is not only about project management and turnarounds, it furthermore includes financial restructuring techniques, strategic & operational strategies, marketing aspects, crisis communication aspects with stakeholders (to maximize the support and minimize bad press) and internally, controlling, quality control processes, of the turnaround itself, risk management, etc.
The International Turnaround Management Standard™ (TIMS) is a method and guided way to achieve a sustainable turnaround. The tt includes all possible aspects and business areas that need to be analyzed and considered when restructuring a company:
- Financial Strategies Strategic- & Operational Strategies
- HR Aspects
- Crisis Communication Management
- Project Management Techniques & Methods
- Change Management
- Controlling
- Management of Risk
- Marketing Aspects
- Quality Control Processes
- Process Improvements
The standard, furthermore serves the turnaround management team as a guideline of what they need to do at what time, how to do it and who you need to provide information too and what other aspects you need to take care of.
In a nutshell: The ITMS targets all the major problems why companies fail in turnarounds; insufficient support of shareholders and lenders, non-comprehensive turnarounds (with other words things where simply overseen, or not regarded as important), targeting of symptoms rather than issues, unstructured approaches to turnarounds, etc.

9 Business turnaround strategies designed particularly for small businesses that do not have access to some of the clout and resources larger companies can call on.
Overview of Internet and network security protocols and architectures.
Network and Internet security is about authenticity, secrecy, privacy, authorization, non-repudiation, data integrity and protection from denial of service (DOS) attacks.
In the early days of the Internet, security was not a concern so most protocols were developed without protection from various kinds of attacks in mind. The Internet is now infested with malware like worms, viruses, trojan horses and killer packets. Unprotected hosts run the risk of being seized by hackers and become part of botnets to launch even more elaborate attacks.
Careful protection of hosts in a network is therefore of paramount importance. Hosts that need not be reachable from the Internet are typically placed in a protected LAN. Hosts with reachability requirements like mail and web servers are placed in a special network zone called DMZ (DeMilitarized Zone).
Firewalls protect the different networks. Firewall functionality ranges from simple port and address filters up to stateful application and deep packet inspection firewalls that provide more protection.
In general, security policies should be as restrictive as reasonable possible. So usually something not explicitly allowed should be classified as forbidden and thus be blocked.

# Internet Security: Safeguarding Your Digital World
In the contemporary digital age, the internet is a cornerstone of our daily lives. It connects us to vast amounts of information, provides platforms for communication, enables commerce, and offers endless entertainment. However, with these conveniences come significant security challenges. Internet security is essential to protect our digital identities, sensitive data, and overall online experience. This comprehensive guide explores the multifaceted world of internet security, providing insights into its importance, common threats, and effective strategies to safeguard your digital world.
## Understanding Internet Security
Internet security encompasses the measures and protocols used to protect information, devices, and networks from unauthorized access, attacks, and damage. It involves a wide range of practices designed to safeguard data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Effective internet security is crucial for individuals, businesses, and governments alike, as cyber threats continue to evolve in complexity and scale.
### Key Components of Internet Security
1. **Confidentiality**: Ensuring that information is accessible only to those authorized to access it.
2. **Integrity**: Protecting information from being altered or tampered with by unauthorized parties.
3. **Availability**: Ensuring that authorized users have reliable access to information and resources when needed.
## Common Internet Security Threats
Cyber threats are numerous and constantly evolving. Understanding these threats is the first step in protecting against them. Some of the most common internet security threats include:
### Malware
Malware, or malicious software, is designed to harm, exploit, or otherwise compromise a device, network, or service. Common types of malware include:
- **Viruses**: Programs that attach themselves to legitimate software and replicate, spreading to other programs and files.
- **Worms**: Standalone malware that replicates itself to spread to other computers.
- **Trojan Horses**: Malicious software disguised as legitimate software.
- **Ransomware**: Malware that encrypts a user's files and demands a ransom for the decryption key.
- **Spyware**: Software that secretly monitors and collects user information.
### Phishing
Phishing is a social engineering attack that aims to steal sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details. Attackers often masquerade as trusted entities in email or other communication channels, tricking victims into providing their information.
### Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) Attacks
MitM attacks occur when an attacker intercepts and potentially alters communication between two parties without their knowledge. This can lead to the unauthorized acquisition of sensitive information.
### Denial-of-Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) Attacks

2) Architectural comparison of several OSS/ CNCF projects to address these patterns
3) Evolution trends for the APIs of these projects
4) Some design recommendations & guidelines for adopting/ deploying these solutions.
2. The Purpose
The purpose of this Presentations is to share
[some of] my security knowledge
with you.
3. Disclaimer
This presentation is aimed to explain “How to
Protect” not “How to hack”. Whatever you
will learn here must not be used in any
unethical way. You will be responsible
for anything you do.
4. I don’t have anything confidential.
Why someone will hack me?
I don’t care. :P
5. Importance of PC
Your PC is one of the most important thing you
have. Your PC is always the first target of the
hackers.
And If someone hacks your PC, then he can:
1. Access your all personal files and folders.
2. Install malicious scripts and software.
3. Steal your login details.
4. Spy and Blackmail you.
6. Importance of Online Accounts
Like your PC, your online accounts such as Google,
Facebook, Twitter etc. can also be hacked. And if
that happens, then the hacker can:
1. Access your e-mails, messages, files and folders.
2. Withdraw your all money from your Account.
3. Use your accounts to hack others.
4. Spy and Blackmail you.
7. OMG! :O
I did not know that!
What should I do?
How can I protect myself?
8. You can’t.
But you can increase your
defenses by following these steps.
9. Turn OFF AutoPlay
Turn OFF AutoPlay
AutoPlay helps malicious scripts run
automatically, from your drives.
Result = Less Chances of Infection
10. Install an Antivirus
Install a FREE, updated and powerful Antivirus
Program like Avast, AVG, Avira, etc.
Instead of Cracked, Outdated and Dumb
Antivirus.
Result = Real-time Protection and Less Chances
of Infection
11. Install a Firewall
Install a FREE, updated and powerful Firewall
Program like Zone Alarm.
Instead of Cracked, Outdated and Dumb
Firewall.
Result = Protection against unauthorized access.
12. Install an Anti-Spyware
Install a FREE, updated and powerful
Anti-Spyware Program like SUPERAntiSpyware,
MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, etc.
Instead of Cracked, Outdated and Dumb Security
Software.
Result = Protection against Spywares
13. Update Your Programs
Regularly update your Anti-virus, Firewall,
Anti-Spyware, Browser, Plug-ins, and everything
that connects to the Internet.
No Update = Outdated + Vulnerable
Result = Less Vulnerabilities
14. Make Backups
Regularly backup your important files.
No backup + Something BAD = DESTROYED!
Result = Protection against accidents and
ransom-wares
15. Use HTTPs
Use HTTPs whenever possible.
Don’t use HTTP to send any sensitive
information like Passwords.
HTTP + Password + MiM = HACKED!
Result = Protection against Man-in-Middle
Attack
16. Are you using HTTPs?
Verify that you are really using HTTPs.
SSL Certificates can be used to verify that.
[A green lock icon ]
HTTPs + Fake Certificate = HACKED!
Result = Protection against Fake HTTPs
17. Where are you?
Verify that you are on the correct domain.
e.g. Facebook.com
You + Fakebook.com = HACKED!
Result = Protection against Phishing
18. Don’t Download!
Don’t download anything from un-trusted
sources like the sites providing cracked
software.
PC + Trojans = HACKED!
Result = Protection against Trojans
19. Don’t Trust ME
Don’t trust anyone [including me].
Apply everything you have learnt on every link.
You + Link by your friend* = HACKED!
Result = Protection against Trojans
* Some malware can share links on behalf of your friends
without their knowledge.
20. Hey! Can I have your Password?
I said don’t trust me! :P
Don’t give your passwords or any sensitive
information to anyone.
You + ME* = HACKED!
Result = Protection against Social-Engineering
* not me . ME = anyone who wants to hack you
