There are a number of reasons why you might want to trick a web server into thinking you're on a different operating system (OS) or web browser. One might be that you want to test the mobile version of your website from your computer. Or perhaps for some reason a website is restricted to a certain OS or browser and you wish to circumnavigate that barrier. Today's guide shows you how to do just that!
My mp3 player is really crappy so it sometimes doesn't recognize books I rip, so if you want to play it in order you have to rename all the files. To make this easier, I merge each disc into one file. It's also great for other purposes. This program is free and works well!
Sometimes windows will shutdown for "updates", which is great and all except when you had an unsaved project in the works or a huge file conversion that you expected to be completed when you wake up, only to find your computer rebooted.
This program makes Google Music a lot easier to use! If you are like me and frequently have the need to skip a song or pause momentarily, then this client will enable you to do this from your desktop instead of navigating to the correct tab and finding the skip or pause button.
When we think of a "structure" we often think of architecture, but data also often has structure. There are many different types of data structures: arrays, graphs, queues, stacks, and so on. We use these structures in order to be able to effectively store and access the data. Sometimes one data structure will be very effective, while in another situation not so much. Knowing and understanding the advantages and disadvantages of the most common data structures will help you more easily decide...
i wanted to format my computer through my friend. he said that he would be needing the cd which comes with the motherboard. as i have lost it i wanted to know where could i find its content online for free and how.
Professionally and academically speaking, I am a computer scientist, but I also enjoy lock picking as a hobby, so I thought I would share what knowledge I have with this. Before we start doing anything, first we need to understand the fundamentals of how locks work and then acquire and familiarize ourselves with basic lock-picking tools.
Today, we are going to combine what we learned from the Introduction to Cryptography article with our Java programming skills. If you are new to Java, check out Matthew's Learn Java: Part One for a quick beginner's lesson, or check out some of the Java tutorials directly on Oracle.
my friend has bought a game called cashflow. i borrowed the cd from him and installed it on my pc, but it could not be played when the cd was not inserted. please help me to hack the cd
Hello, I would like to make a guide for checking HDD health on your computer but I'm not entirely sure if it's suitable for this World. Would you like me to make one?
Today isn't actually Pi Day, but I was unable to get this article out in time. Pi Day was actually yesterday, March 14th (3.14), so let's call this a post-Pi Day treat!
Industrial espionage, social engineering and no-tech hacking are all very real, and there are simple precautions that you can take to protect yourself, which this article will discuss. Whether you are a high-profile businessman or a housewife (or househusband), keeping the information you want to remain private private should be important to you.
Have you ever forgotten your password and didn't know how to get back on your computer? Or ever had an annoying roommate you wanted to play a trick on to teach them a lesson? Or perhaps overly religious parents who think the internet is of the devil and won't let you read online articles about elliptic curve cryptography applications to C++? Well, then this article is for you!
The cryptology course went live today and is accepting anyone who is interested for registration. Check out the link for more information and to view the other awesome free online courses!
Last time, we looked at archaic cryptography, so you should have a basic understanding of some of the concepts and terminology you'll need. Now, we'll discuss one of the most important advances in computer security in the 20th century—public key cryptography.
Cryptography is a quintessential part of computer security in the modern world. Whenever you buy something on eBay or log into Facebook, that data is encrypted before it's sent to the server in order to prevent third parties from eavesdropping and stealing your sensitive information.
There is a vast amount of knowledge out there on computers! In fact, it is so vast that no single person could ever possibly ever learn everything there is to learn about hacking or computers in general. People usually specialize in a certain field: cryptography, computer security, networking, software development, testing, and so on...It's probably a bit premature to decide what you want your speciality to be, but keeping the question in the back of your mind will help give you direction in...
I am going to post summarizing the best places to go to begin your hacking adventures, but feel free to add any other resources that you think are helpful to this forum thread! There are just so many great places to go it is hard to pick and choose. If your suggestions are really great I will be sure to add them to the blog post.
I recently found this video series that discusses (in a more round about way) the theories that make cryptography what it is today, which goes great with my most recent blog post. I haven't finished watching them all yet, but so far they have been fairly good and I would recommend watching one to see if you like it?!
Scroogle was shut down this month due to " a combination of throttling of search requests by Google and a denial-of-service attack by an unknown person or group."
I recently posted a link to what seemed to be a very useful guide on Lifehacker for creating a TOR button in Chrome. However, when I tried it myself, it did not work. Also, it lacked a warning on the limits of Tor, which I think are important. Therefore, I decided to create an updated and more comprehensive tutorial.
Anyone have something specific they would like to learn about? I have had a lot of ideas floating around in my brain lately, but whenever I think of something good, it seems like Null Byte has already done it!? :)
The department of Homeland Security released a list of 'words and phrases' it uses to search social media for terrorism, and whatever else they decide they are looking for that day. Read some of these. A few are obvious "bomb, nuke" and some "target, event" are just down right vague. More reasons to watch what you do on the Internet. You are not the only one watching!
If you did anything but watch the Superbowl alone with a small screen TV, then you are in violation of copyright infringement law, according to this article!
A nice little series of videos where you witness live social engineering and listen to others share their funny little stories where they were able to use their skills. Definitely worth a watch if you're into this sort of thing!
