Raspberry Pi: A computer in your pocket



With an advancement of human race in the world of technology, compactness of
technical gadgets has become a bliss. Raspberry Pi, a tiny computer has drawn the
attention of tinkerers all over the world. Yes, this small device has made it
possible for you to operate your system from anywhere since it just fits into your
pocket. It is proving to be one of the hottest cheapest little computers in the
world.
An engineer with a vision is an asset to a country. Implementation of ideas and
theories is what makes an efficient engineer. This very device was invented for
the sole purpose of giving engineers a complete exposure of their work. The
inception of Raspberry Pi began in 2006 and it was finally released on 19 th
February, 2012 with two models: Model A and Model B. The latest model of
Raspberry Pi was released in 2014 and is called Model B+. A Raspberry Pi costs
around $35 and is capable of doing all that an expensive bulky computer does
making it popular among students. The inventor of Raspberry Pi EBEN UPTON,
envisioned it to bring a wave of enthusiasm amongst the student sector since the
device would allow them to have an access to it easily considering its low cost. It
is a 1.2GHz 64-bit quad-core ARMv8 processor with some other attractive
specifications as:

  1. Bluetooth 4.1
  2. 1GB RAM
  3. 11n Wireless LAN
  4. 4 USB Ports
  5. 40 GPIO Pins
  6. Full HDMI Port    

RASPBIAN, WINDOWS 10 IoT CORE, RISC OS OPEN LIMITED, MOEBIUS,
RETROPIE and OSMC are some of the top operating systems that can run on
Raspberry Pi. Raspberry Pi is known to be an open hardware with an exception of
a primary chip on the board, called the Broadcomm SoC (system on chip). This 
SOC is responsible to function many of the main components on the board like
graphics, CPU, memory etc.
IOT with Raspberry PI
IOT is the technology that holds the future. When we think of smart world, what
comes to our mind is Internet of Things. One cannot advance in the tech world
unless is aware of this very technology. Every other organization is switching its
platform to this technology to keep a pace with the fast moving era of technology.
Raspberry Pi forms the best platform for learning IOT since it offers a complete
linux server on a small platform at an effective cost. A number of projects of IOT
can be done using Raspberry Pi. We can even say, Raspberry Pi forms the stepping
stone in the learning process of IOT. A small tool capable of doing great things is
what we need to have a command on if we seek our future in technologies.

Types Of Network •LAN - Local Area Network is in a small geographical area, such as a college or office building. •WAN - Wide Area Network Combination of multiple LANs. •WLAN - Wireless Local Area Network Links two or more devices using some wireless distribution method and usually providing a connection through an access point to the wider internet. Local Area Network (LAN) •A LAN connects network devices within a limited geographical area such as office buildings or schools. •The data transfer is managed by a transport protocol such as TCP/IP. •The transmission of data is performed by the access method (Ethernet, Token Ring, etc.). Wide Area Network (WAN) •A WAN covers a wide geographic area, carrying data over long distances, such as a country •WANs can be formed by different LANs •The connection between different LANs may not be permanent •WANs are sophisticated networks, but transmission speeds have generally been slower than those commonly achieved on LANs WLAN (Wireles

NMAP and ZenMAP

NMAP and ZenMAP are useful tools for the scanning phase of Ethical Hacking in Kali Linux. NMAP and ZenMAP are practically the same tool, however NMAP uses command line while ZenMAP has a GUI. NMAP is a free utility tool for network discovery and security auditing. Many systems and network administrators also find it useful for tasks such as network inventory, managing service upgrade schedules, and monitoring host or service uptime. NMAP uses raw IP packets in novel ways to determine which hosts are available on the network, what services (application name and version) those hosts are offering, which operating systems (and OS versions) they are running, what type of packet filters/firewalls are in use, etc. Now, let’s go step by step and learn how to use NMAP and ZenMAP. Step 1 − To open, go to Applications → 01-Information Gathering → nmap or zenmap. Step 2 − The next step is to detect the OS type/version of the target host. Based on the help indicated by NMAP, the parameter of

MAN-IN-THE-MIDDLE ATTACK (MITM ATTACK)

What is Man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack? A man in the middle attack is one in which the attacker intercepts messages in a public key exchange and then retransmits them, substituting his own public key for the requested one, so that the two original parties still appear to be communicating with each other. The attack gets its name from the ball game where two people try to throw a ball directly to each other while one person in between them attempts to catch it. In a man in the middle attack, the intruder uses a program that appears to be the server to the client and appears to be the client to the server. The attack may be used simply to gain access to the message, or enable the attacker to modify the message before retransmitting it. Man in the middle attacks is sometimes known as fire brigade attacks. The term derives from the bucket brigade method of putting out a fire by handing buckets of water from one person to another between a water source and the fire. What is BackTrack
