MD5 Hash Generator Japanese student sets up free VPN service Posted on 15 March 2013. There are a lot of people around the world that would like to bypass firewalls set up by their governments, but not everybody can afford to do it. Enter Daiyuu Nobori, a student from Tsukuba University in Japan who a couple days ago set up and new - and free - VPN service that can be used by everybody and anybody. Based on the SoftEther open-source VPN freeware, which is designed to run on Windows, Linux, Mac, FreeBSD and Solaris, the VPN Gate service relies on volunteers around the world to download the server software and set up Public VPN Relay Servers for others to use. "A volunteer is a person who owns a computer which is keeping the broadband connection to the Internet. A continually refreshed list of available servers is provided on the service's website. The website is available in Japanese, English and Chinese, and judging by the connection logs of all VPN Gate Public VPN Servers, Chinese users are currently most numerous, but not the only ones.
How are passwords stored in Linux (Understanding hashing with shadow utils) A user account with a corresponding password for that account, is the primary mechanism that can be used for getting access to a Linux machine. Its very much logical to think that the passwords of all the user's in a system must first be saved in some kind of a file or a database, so that it can be verified during a user login attempt. And you do not require the skill set and expertise of a computer security scientist to think rationally that if you get hold of that database or file, which stores all the passwords, you can easily get access to the machine. Some people will argue at this point that the database, or the file that contains the passwords, are in an encoded format (hash value), and its not possible to know the real password, from the encoded password hash. Hashing is a mathematical method to produce a fixed length encoded string for any given string. In short no two data can have the same hash (encoded string). oh did you see that...You cant even change the user. 1. 2. 3. 4.
OpenVAS - OpenVAS - Open Vulnerability Assessment Scanner How To Be Anonymous In The Age Of DNA Surveillance Last week, Bushwick gallery 319 Scholes brought together 60 artists for the second annual Art Hack Day—a three-day-long, bleary-eyed hackathon where teams created technology-based works around the theme of “God Mode,” the gaming cheat that grants a player infinite power, omniscient eyesight, and other all-seeing awesomeness. Here, we take a look at a few of the most innovative and thought-provoking works to spin out of the ensuing exhibition. The 19th century poet Baudelaire used to glorify the anonymity of modern living. These days, pretty much the exact opposite is true. The shadow of surveillance looms large—with Google Glass touting its facial recognition software, face-tagging returning to Facebook (that’s right, it’s baa-aack), and drones developing new ways to identify their targets. In other words, in an era where the creepiness of being watched becomes the norm, you have three options: 1) give up and pretend not to care, 2) fight back, or 3) make jokes about it.

La Quadrature du Net - Forum BETA: Données personnelles et vie privée » Laisserez-vous disparaitre la protection de vos données ? Bruxelles, 19 mars 2013 -- La commission des « affaires juridiques » (JURI), menée par Marielle Gallo (France - EPP), vient de voter son avis sur la nouvelle législation relative à la protection des données proposée par la Commission européenne. Avec ce dernier vote pour avis, légèrement moins catastrophique que les précédents, le Parlement européen affaiblit une fois encore la protection des données personnelles des citoyens européens. Les membres des quatre commissions ayant exprimé leur avis ont choisi de se ranger aux côtés des multinationales américaines qui, comme Facebook et Google, collectent, traitent et vendent des données concernant nos vies quotidiennes. La mobilisation citoyenne commence doucement à porter ses fruits, mais doit encore s'intensifier avant le vote crucial de la commission principale « libertés civiles » (LIBE) - actuellement prévu pour les 24-25 April, mais probablement reporté. 1.
