What is cloud computing❓❔

☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️


Simply put, cloud computing is the delivery of computing services—servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, intelligence and more—over the Internet (“the cloud”) to offer faster innovation, flexible resources and economies of scale. You typically pay only for cloud services you use, helping lower your operating costs, run your infrastructure more efficiently and scale as your business needs change.


❗️Top benefits of cloud computing❕


Cloud computing is a big shift from the traditional way businesses think about IT resources. Here are six common reasons organisations are turning to cloud computing services:


1⃣. COST


Cloud computing eliminates the capital expense of buying hardware and software and setting up and running on-site datacenters—the racks of servers, the round-the-clock electricity for power and cooling, the IT experts for managing the infrastructure. It adds up fast.


2⃣.  SPEED


Most cloud computing services are provided self service and on demand, so even vast amounts of computing resources can be provisioned in minutes, typically with just a few mouse clicks, giving businesses a lot of flexibility and taking the pressure off capacity planning.


3⃣. GLOBAL SCALE


The benefits of cloud computing services include the ability to scale elastically. In cloud speak, that means delivering the right amount of IT resources—for example, more or less computing power, storage, bandwidth—right when it is needed and from the right geographic location.


4⃣. PRODUCTIVITY


On-site datacenters typically require a lot of “racking and stacking”—hardware set up, software patching and other time-consuming IT management chores. Cloud computing removes the need for many of these tasks, so IT teams can spend time on achieving more important business goals.


5⃣. PERFORMANCE


The biggest cloud computing services run on a worldwide network of secure datacenters, which are regularly upgraded to the latest generation of fast and efficient computing hardware. This offers several benefits over a single corporate datacenter, including reduced network latency for applications and greater economies of scale.


6⃣. SECURITY


Many cloud providers offer a broad set of policies, technologies and controls that strengthen your security posture overall, helping protect your data, apps and infrastructure from potential threats.

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

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

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
