How IT Systems affected by malware

 For many computer virus writers and cybercriminals, the objective is to distribute their virus, worm or Trojan virus to as many computers or mobile phones as possible – so that they can maximise malware penetration. There are three main ways in which this can be achieved:

  • Via social engineering
  • By infecting a system without the user’s knowledge
  • A combination of both of these methods
In addition, the malware creator will often take steps to prevent the infection being detected by antivirus programs.

Everything you need to know about LAN authentication

Most people are familiar with PPP - Point-to-Point Protocol. PPP is most commonly used for dial-up Internet access. PPP is also used by some ISPs for DSL and cable modem authentication, in the form of PPP over Ethernet. PPP is part of Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol, a core part of Microsoft's secure remote access solution for Windows 2000 and beyond. What is PPP PPP evolved beyond its original use as a dial-up access method and is now used all over the Internet. One piece of PPP defines an authentication mechanism. With dial-up Internet access, that's the username and password you're used to using. PPP authentication is used to identify the user at the other end of the PPP line before giving them access.

EAP sits inside of PPP's authentication protocol ...

Everything You Need to Know About 5G

  The latest CES 2019 set some trends for the future of technology and one of the most anticipated is the arrival of 5G Internet in the market. With the promise of being extremely fast and with double capacity for information transmission, the technology comes to revolutionize communication between everything connected to the internet. After the event, some innovation gurus say that from 2020 onwards we will live the “Data Age”, in which any electronic device will be able to analyze data that will be received via sensors or cloud. The big advantage of the 5G will be its simultaneous connection capability as the current 4G can handle a maximum of 10,000 gadgets within 1 km 2 . The arrival of 5G guarantees a range of 1 million devices within this same radius. And just as importantly, 5G will also bring data transfer capacity of up to 20gb, while 4G supports up to 10gb. And do you know where 5G technology will take immediate action? Obviously in smart cars, which are the future of tra...

Network Security: LAN manager authentication level

In windows server 2008, if we go to Network Security: LAN manager authentication level(gpedit.msc -> Computer Configuration -> WindowsSettings -> SecuritySettings LocalPolicies -> securityoptions ) and right click on it, we cannot change the value of the authentication level. It is greyed out. To change this we need to go to following registry entry.. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\LmCompatibilityLevel and set the value. LmCompatibilityLevel should be 0 for Send LM & NTLM responses 1 for Send LM & NLTM - use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated 2 for Send NTLM response only 3 for Send NTLMv2 response only 4 for Send NTLMv2 response only\refuse LM 5 for Send NTLMv2 response only\refuse LM & NTLM know more :  lan manager authentication level
