Tips 02: How and Why Internet Syetem Can Be Endangered
I want to describe here how and can we exposed to hackers threat and much more ... please let us understand a little of my theory that I want to share ...
Beginning to "Internet Security"
As part of this introduction will describe in simple aspects of the Internet-based security following topics:
- Security is not Default
- Beginning techniques
- Who are they?
- From where they started?
- Why invade?
Security is not Default:
This message is a reminder to all PC users, especially to those who manage the server (server) that no operating system (OS) that is safe in the first place (by default). Even they are using UNIX, LINUX who famous in network security features. The most important is, the Os is configured with the correct configuration, instead of the OS is used. Ironically UNIX is famous for its safety aspects and the most OS that been violated by hackers as a platform to test their skills.
Analogy of Intrusion:
Invasion on a PC or server is done through several ways termed Hacking, Cracking and Exploits. Such as intrusion is to enter a house that is locked with the numbered Padlock gates, intruders will be doing a few things as follows:
- Monitor the movement of the host entry and exit for a few days before the invasion to get the basic information about the suitability of time trespassing, safety features such as type of house keys that are used, the position of doors, windows and perhaps other holes that can be accessed. Both stage is termed as scanning
- Sometimes the intruders also stalking the combination of number used by the landlord using binoculars from a distance for some time. Process perspective is known as sniffing or Sniffer.
- Upon receiving the information and the suitability of the time, intruders will begin entering the house. Perhaps they will initially try to use a simple method to test the random combination of numbers on the house padlock gates with the victim based on basic information such as car plate number, home number, telephone and so on. This process is called craking.
- If the try-test effort fails or take too long, they will change to more aggressive strategy by breaking the padlock or other doors, windows or holes in the victim home. Aggressive action is deemed as Exploits.
- For experienced intruders, they will not let themselves known, so that they may be using disguises techniques such as wearing masks or using magic to be stealth. This condition is can be equated as Anonymity or Anonymous. The above example is a simple analogy for understanding the level of attack only.
Who are they?
Typical Profile based on Maximum Security intrusion book is as follows:
- A person who has basic programming in C, C + + or Perl is widely used in network software or a web script.
- Skilled in Internet Protocol TCP / IP is mandatory to Internet intruders or remote base attack.
- A person who spends much time on the internet more than 50 hours per month and most of them work in sectors that use computers but not limited to IT professionals only.
- Has in-depth knowledge of at least two particularly UNIX OS and / or VMS, Linux and Windows NT.
- Has a collection of old software that is capable of high extinction, but especially the DOS-based which until now could not be contested by modern software. For example, the DOS DEBUG program is very powerful (powerful) to analyze the hardware configuration on the PC.
From where they started?
The launch site or OS used by different intruders. Most hackers are established using Unix OS, while MacOS is that at least once since the tools it less and the number of internet users for MacOS operating system is very small compared to other OS. Among other popular OS is Linux or FreeBSD as the OS is easily obtained, free of charge and use less hardware resource (the PC 486 can run Linux) with the added characteristics that resemble UNIX.
However, Windows NT is now increasingly the choice for hackers to intrude, especially as the number of Windows users on the Internet is increasing and associated Windows security tools easily found on the Internet. Number of commercial Internet servers running WindowsNT Server now increased substantially with the proposed merger added DEC and Microsoft will switch to Windows NT hackers view as their platform. However OS is easy to use the same victim to invade. For example if you want to invade the Linux platform using Linux as your OS site to facilitate communication and ensure that you are skilled with the security system / OS vulnerability of the victim.
Various reasons and justifications to attack intruders by their victims, including:
- Hate - the hacker may not like the victim or he is betrayed by one of the victims before.
- Challenges - usually a hacker who likes challenges and invade a network which is something exciting.
- Money - hired some hackers to invade a network by the second for a reason.
- Want to know - curiosity or any information contained on the PC or just someone trying a security system.
- Politics - this phenomenon is rare in the country a transparent democratic system and a voice. This is done by the ideological conflict that wants to destroy each other. Generally, this activity is done by the government on the basis of strengthening the power.
- sabotage - some transgression committed by the server spy especially important government agencies for information or simply want to destroy their enemies web communication networks in time critical, such as during war or elections.
Tips 03: Personal Computer buying Guide
Desktop or laptop? Problems may arise if you want to buy new personal computers for use by either themselves or family. Here are listed some advantages and disadvantages in either a laptop or Dekstop - choice in your hands.
Do I love to travel? Or I often work outside the office? If you are in this category, then the laptop is the most suitable option for you. No matter whether for business or just traveling, you'll find that the laptop is the most ideal choice for you.
If you are one who like to travel, you can include photos taken using digital cameras with easy-you only need to transfer photos taken into the computer if space in the memory card is full, then you do not need to worry about buying more memory cards. In addition, you can watch your favorite video CD purchased at any place you travel immediately. If you are a business, then business will be increased easily, and all customer information easy to add into your laptop.
No matter whether you are tourists or businessmen, you can access the Internet easily and free travel in many places around the world, including Malaysia. Hotspot with facilities in many places throughout the country, especially at the airport and hotel travel, you can take advantage of Wi-Fi technology if it included one with your laptop. In addition, you can also take advantage of 3G technology on the current laptop and get high speed access to the internet easily without limit in any place you go.
Are laptop truly 'portable' and flexible?
Phrase 'easy to carry to anywhere' is limited to the actual laptop. Say, if you buy a laptop, and after a while you use it, you'll find that you need to add some other accessories to meet your needs, such as hard disk and DVD + RW. If you are not fortunate, space the size of your laptop that you use limited force in these additional external accessories - in other words, you need to buy external hard disk or DVD + RW external USB port that is installed on, compared to the Desktop where it can installed in a Mini Tower Casing. And do not forget to also mentioned - external accessory equipment are far more expensive compared to internal accessories. For example, hard disk installed internally (in the laptop or desktop) is cheaper than external hard disk.
What about maintenance and service? Any easier? And cheaper?Generally, repair and maintain the desktop PC is easier than with the laptop. You are free to open and install hardware / hardware in your desktop PC with the easy compared to the laptop, especially when you are having problems with computer hardware / hardware. A laptop is a lack of repair or upgrade costs are higher and expensive. For example, prices for a piece of memory module (RAM) laptop can reach up to two times the price of RAM with the same specifications for the desktop. In addition, the selection of the computer desktop gives you the advantage to upgrade a PC laptop easily compared because the casing space far more narrow and limited.
Are you fans of games or PC games?
If your answer is yes, then the desktop is the most ideal choice for you. This is because you will get better quality video at the CRT monitors which comes with the computer desktop. In addition, you may want to increase performance graphics card and sound card from time to time. But with the PCI slot and room Mini Tower Casing larger, additional conversion or expansion card for PC performance upgrades will be easier and cheaper.
What is appropriate for students?
Generally, the laptop is the ideal choice for most students, especially students at any institution of higher learning. This is to facilitate students and students to take notes, delivered a presentation in class and no less also to surf the Internet via Wi-Fi connection to a hotspot that is available at most local institutions of higher learning
However, for students who wish to deepen PC hobbies, such as recognizing hardware, install and maintain hardware , the desktop is the most ideal choice because the design is very suitable for those who want to learn PC hardware - ie you can open, add any internal accessories on the computer desktop.

Tips 04: Computer Problem "Hang"
If you start dealing with problems such as moving the mouse, but mouse pointer does not respond directly, or even if you press the 'Caps Lock' repeatedly, but the caps lock indicator lights on your keyboard does not change status, then you likely have problems with thehardware. In some circumstances, Reset button is also not able to restart your computer. So you need to take more extreme steps - turn off power supply in electrical wall switches.
Will my computer be damaged if you do so?
You are not guilty in this case, because there is no other way to overcome the problems caused by the hardware. You may have heard that the computer off forcibly will causing your hard disk damaged. When your computer is turned off forcibly, indirect applications are also not able close the work perfectly, and thus will resulting in too many fragmented files and the cluster that can not be removed properly and make your hard disk crowded. This can cause your hard disk increases 'crowded and narrow' even if you run the cleaning 'Disk Cleanup'.
Next, you may want to try to restart your computer and enter the windows. If you can turn them back and use Windows without any problem - well done! However, if you have time before entering Windows, or after a while into Windows, your computer's start showed symptoms of hardware problems (again), then you should ask yourself some questions:
- Do I have install any other hardware on the computer I recently?
- Do I have change any configuration on the hardware I? especially in the BIOS setup menu?
- Do I have update hardware on a computer I recently (such as driver update)
If you recently install any hardware on your computer. Hardware is likely to be the cause of your problem. What should you do? Open Mini Tower Casing cover you, and remove the hardware from the computer system. then try restart your computer.
Or if you have installed hardware that is very important and you need it, then you may need to get the latest driver from the hardware manufacturer's website. And make sure it received confirmation from Microsoft WHQL Digital Signature.
If you just update the latest driver for your hardware, you probably have a bug problem in the latest driver. Log in to Safe Mode and re-install the original driver known to work properly
If you change any configuration on your hardware, is easy - change the configuration back!
P / s: For the computer to always maintain well, it is advisable to get advice from expert if you want to make a thing outside of your knowledge.
