Security IP Cameras: call me for a quote!

The installation of Security IP Cameras , low cost ,smart devices, that feed off your home/business network, that enable you to monitor your property on the internet New IP Cameras are of a much better image quality then older Analog systems ,because they are digital smart devices (Full High Definition) and are mini computers, with a web server, able to stream video to your smartphone, iPad, iPhone, Android tablets, phones. This You Tube video explains IP cameras I'm installing, "What is Digital Surveillance?" Eli also explains the difference between the two modern digital surveillance devices; Analog Cameras and IP Based Cameras.

IP vs. Analog Security Cameras Forensic evidence and personal marks of identification (scars or tattoos) are essential to catching criminals. Can you spot his tattoo?

5 Facts You Should Know:

1)You can stream LIVE, 24/7 security camera feed to your smartphone,Mac, PC or tablet.

2)3:1 Ratio: You only need ONE 2 megapixel security camera to cover the same distance as THREE analog security cameras.

3)Details matter! More Pixels = More Details. Facial or license plate recognition requires at least 40 pixels per foot. Analog cameras only cover 16', where a 3 megapixel IP camera covers 51' in horizontal coverage.

4)An 8 megapixel camera has a 2500% resolution benefit over a standard analog camera. Ideal when zooming in for forensic review.

5)IP cameras are available for any condition (outside, nighttime-active-infrared, freezing temperatures and extreme heat). Most models are even vandal resistant!

They are aiming for an operating system that runs on PC,tablet and smartphone,and to sell cloud-based services, like data storage, music or movies, that work across devices. In their new operating systems, Windows 8 and Apple Mountain Lion, Microsoft and Apple are heading up the effort to make computers more like mobile devices,ie smartphones Windows 8 has the same touch-friendly interface that Microsoft uses in Windows Phone. The interface,features a mosaic of tiles that can be tapped to start up applications. Both companies have also borrowed the concept of online app stores from the mobile side to create equivalent services for the computer operating systems. These are centralized online services where users browse, buy and download applications. Apple started its Mac App Store over a year ago

Mac Clones Sold For $399! Will Apple Strike Back?

Mac Clones Sold For $399! Will Apple Strike Back?

For as little as $399, a Miami-based company called Psystar offers shoppers the OpenMac computer, which runs the OS X Leopard. The smaller, cheaper version of Apple’s Mac Pro, which has a $2000 retail price, is powered by a 2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, has 2GB of DDR2 667 memory, Integrated Intel GMA 950 Graphics, 20x DVD+/-R Drive, 4 USB Ports and 250 GB 7200 RPM Drive, Macworld reported.

What is the problem with this? The answer is simple: Apple’s license for Leopard or any other version of Mac OS X only includes Apple hardware, which means Psystar breaks the Leopard end-user license agreement (EULA), which prohibits the installation of the software on third party hardware.

HP Unveils $499 Mini-Notebook

The full-function, ultra-affordable ultraportable, shipping with Linux or Windows Vista, will likely fly off the shelves.



Until recently, you could get a notebook for as little as $500—if you didn't mind it weighing at least 5 pounds. Or you could get one that weighed less than 4 pounds—if you didn't mind it costing between $1,000 and $3,000. New devices such ass the Asus Eee and Everex Cloudbook tweaked this equation, with 2-pound configurations starting at $299 ... as long as you were willing to use Linux, on a 7-inch screen.

"The potential [security threat] is huge," said Mikko Hyppönen, chief research officer at F-Secure, an antivirus company. "It's probably bigger than for any other vulnerability we've seen. Any version of Windows is vulnerable right now."

The flaw, which allows hackers to infect computers using programs maliciously inserted into seemingly innocuous image files, was first discovered last week.

Only RedHawk Linux was able to ensure the high frame rates required in their HIL simulation without frame overruns, thereby ensuring the highest quality of system test."

How to Stop Phishing, Spyware, and Spam

Spyware is the means through which hackers gain access to your computer and your private information. Spyware is defined as any software that covertly gathers user information through your Internet connection without your knowledge, usually for advertising purposes. It watches everything you do on the Internet and sends that information, including private e-mail, passwords, and credit card numbers to the hacker invisibly, without your knowledge.

No matter how careful you are, regardless of what virus protection you buy, you will always be at risk without the proper anti-spyware tools to protect you. How do you know if you have been infected? If the Start page in your Web browser keeps changing by itself, if your computer starts crashing more often than usual, or if you have tried to uninstall unfamiliar programs only to find they are still there after you restart your computer, then you are infected. Spyware can be pretty malicious.

Keyloggers watch your every keystroke and mouse click, then records your passwords, log-ons, and account numbers. You might think you don't need to read this column because you've taken steps to protect yourself. Well, if you have all the most current antivirus software, have installed Service Pack 2 for Windows XP, and have a very powerful firewall to protect you, then you would be WRONG! The fact is that all of these items do absolutely nothing to protect your computer from spyware at all, leaving you completely vulnerable to attack. Also, you know all those updates that Microsoft Windows XP installs? None of them protect you from spyware writers, who exploit ways to transparently install spyware through your Internet Explorer browser. These programs can even prevent Service Pack 2 from installing correctly. Once these programs infect you, your computer becomes very slow, because all your computer processing power is eaten up by the spyware itself. Don't allow yourself to be lulled into a false sense of security from any one anti-spyware program that claims to provide total protection - it doesn't exist.

Spam is the most virulent form of abuse that any Internet user must endure. The problem is so common that most people find they are forced to change their e-mail address just to avoid getting junk e-mail. Unfortunately, changing your e-mail is worse than changing your phone number because nobody knows how to contact you.

Microsoft Outlook 2003 and Eudora 6 are two of the major programs that have the ability to filter incoming e-mail as messages are received. If a message is believed to be spam, the message is filtered to the spam folder for later review.

Many mail servers running on UNIX machines run a program called Spam Assassin (www.spamassassin.org) which separates messages that contain potentially unsafe attachments, match keywords representing spam or rejects messages from known spamming addresses.

Internet phishing (pronounced "fishing") is when a hacker sends you an e-mail falsely claiming to be an established legitimate enterprise. The idea is to try to scam you into surrendering private information that will be used to steal your identity. This e-mail asks you to visit a Web site where you are asked to update your personal information, such as passwords, credit card numbers, Social Security number, and bank account numbers information that the legitimate organization already has. The scam is that this Web site is bogus and is set up only to steal your confidential information.

You must be careful whenever you receive an email from what appears to be a trusted company. Hackers are very good at writing convincing letters that appear to be genuine. You must never ever click on a link in one of these e-mails, because even though it might look authentic, it almost always is not. It is very simple matter for a hyperlink to show one Web site and send you somewhere completely different when you click on it. These links are designed to take you to the hacker's site. Don't even cut and paste these links into your browser, because the hidden information in the URL takes you directly to the hacker instead of where you intended to go. When you need to go to a Web site, open a new browser window and type in the address by hand. That's the only way you can be sure. So, if you somehow find yourself on a Web site and you just aren't certain if it is from the hacker or not, what can you do? Well, here is a good tip. If the site asks you for personal information, just type in any random set of information. If the site says you have entered invalid information, then at least you have a good clue that it is most likely authentic. However, if the Web site lets you type in any random information and comes back to tell your information has been updated, then the site is almost certainly from a hacker designed to capture anyone's information (no matter what they type).



Another telltale sign of phishing is when e-mails are not addressed to you specifically by name but instead say, "Dear Customer." If an e-mail doesn't take the time to address you by name, something is wrong! When you receive an e-mail, ask yourself, "Why am I receiving this note?" If you are unsure, call the company directly and ask. Never assume an e-mail is authentic just because it looks like it came from a trusted company. Hackers easily spoof the "from" field of an e-mail to make it appear it is a legitimate correspondence. Never click on an attachment contained in an e-mail, because you never know what virus or spyware is lurking beneath the surface waiting to steal your private information and send it to the hacker world. It is important when you go onto a Web site to make certain the page begins with https:// That "S" means "secure," and, if it is not there, anything you input can be intercepted by a hacker. One of the nasty tricks hackers use when trying to redirect you to a fraudulent site is to mimic the URL of the trusted site. For example, you might want to go to mycard.citibank.com, but the hacker site might say something like mycard.citibank.com@216.45.54.303 where that @ symbol means you are connected to a hacker's Web site pretending to be your credit card.

Hackers are very good at what they do. Sometimes you can take every precaution and still find yourself in trouble, not knowing if you are giving your information to a hacker. The best protection is your own vigilance. Don't click, don't open unless you feel confident about the sender.

“Phishing”-Trojan

“Phishing”
Definition: Phishing is a type of attack aimed at obtaining a user's personal or confidential information. It typically involves some sort of spam email designed to lure a user to a spoofed web site.

Also Known As: Phishing Attack, Phishing Scam
...................................................
Definition: A Trojan is a program that appears to be legitimate, but in fact does something malicious. Trojans were responsible for the Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks suffered by Yahoo and EBay in the latter part of 1999. In fact, Trojans are often used to gain backdoor access - that is to say remote, surreptitious access, to a user's system. Trojans do not replicate as viruses do, nor make copies of themselves as worms do.

There are several different types of Trojans: Remote Access Trojans (RATs), Backdoor Trojans (backdoors), IRC Trojans (IRCbots), and Keyloggers. Many of these different types can be employed in one Trojan. For example, an Keylogger that also operates as a backdoor or RAT may commonly be hidden inside game hacks. IRC Trojans are often combined with Backdoors and RATs to create collections of infected computers known as botnets.

AIM worm plays nasty new trick

AIM worm plays nasty new trick
http://news.com.com/AIM+worm+plays+nasty+new+trick/2100-7349_3-5920403.html

A worm found spreading via America Online's Instant Messenger is carrying a nastier punch than usual, a security company has warned.

The unnamed worm delivers a cocktail of unwanted software, including a so-called rootkit, security experts at FaceTime Communications said Friday. A rootkit is a tool designed to go undetected by the security software used to lock down control of a computer after an initial hack.

"A very nasty bundle is downloaded to your machine" when you click on the worm link, said Tyler Wells, senior director of engineering at FaceTime. "This is the first time that we have seen a rootkit as part of the bundle of applications that is sent to your machine. It is a disturbing trend."

IM worm and malicious code attacks are happening more than ever before. The number of threats detected for instant-messaging and peer-to-peer networks rose 3,295 percent in the third quarter of 2005, compared with last year, according to a recent report from security provider IMlogic.

In addition to the "lockx.exe" rootkit file, the new worm delivers a version of the Sdbot Trojan horse, said FaceTime, which sells products to protect instant-messaging traffic. Sdbot opens a backdoor on the infected PC. The worm also places several spyware and adware applications, including 180Solutions, Zango, the Freepod Toolbar, MaxSearch, Media Gateway and SearchMiracle, the company added.

All that unwanted software can eat up system resources, slowing down the PC, Wells said. Also, the malicious applications will attempt to disable security programs and change the search page on the user's Web browser, FaceTime said. Selling green buildings with people power ID theft: Can it really be prevented? Bloggers jump on Libby indictment 'Lost' finds deeper reality online Previous Next

The worm was spotted in an AOL IM chatroom and infected one of the PCs that FaceTime uses for worm bait. The company said it also has seen the pest hit other computers. "It is still out there, and it is definitely something the user should be leery of," Wells said. "The rootkit is designed to not be detected, and that is the scary part."

Worms on IM networks can spread rapidly. They appear as a message from a buddy with a link that looks innocent, but in fact points to malicious code somewhere on the Internet. Once the user clicks on the link, malicious code is installed and runs on the computer. The worm then spreads itself by sending messages to all names on the victim's contact list.

The advice to users is to be careful when clicking on links in IM messages--even when they seem to come from friends--and to use up-to-date antivirus software. When receiving a link in an instant message, the best practice is to verify with the sender if the link was sent intentionally or not.
