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 indicat...

Internet Of Things -IOT

Hey there! Have you heard of IoT? Yes the most popular thing in industry. If not, it is Internet of Things. Do you use smart watches or have you heard about smart city, smart house, these are the practical application of IoT. Didn’t get it?If you just Google “what is IoT?”, you will get a technical answer: “The Internet of Things (IoT) is a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals or people that are provided with unique identifiers and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction.”  Simply, The Internet of Things, or IoT, refers to the billions of physical devices around the world that are now connected to the internet, collecting and sharing data. Now you’ll ask me “Okay, but why is it so much important?”. Today majority of devices works on sensors but sensors will not live forever. In other words, cheap sensors are not going to be 100% reliable, 100% of the time. Ph...

Kali Linux - Installation and Configuration

Kali Linux is one of the best security packages of an ethical hacker, containing a set of tools divided by the categories. It is an open source and its official webpage is https://www.kali.org. Generally, Kali Linux can be installed in a machine as an Operating System, as a virtual machine . Installing Kali Linux is a practical option as it provides more options to work and combine the tools. You can also create a live boot CD or USB. All this can be found in the following link: https://www.kali.org/downloads/ BackTrack was the old version of Kali Linux distribution. The latest release is Kali 2018.1 and it is updated very often. To install Kali Linux − First, we will download the Virtual box  or Vmware workstation and install it. Later, we will download and install Kali Linux distribution. Instead of downloading  the images file you all can download that ova file extension . The benefits of it is that you do not have to install it. What you have to do is to just ...
