Fog Computing also known Fog Networking or Fogging is a distributed computing architecture which provides computing processing and data storage. The Fog Computing sits between the edge devices and the cloud. It acts an intermediate later between cloud and end devices. The Fog Computing was created to address the enormous growth of IoT. The count…

Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing is a model of on-demand access of computing resources from a shared pool of resources like processing, memory, network, storage, applications and other computing services that can be rapidly provisioned and released. Essential Characteristics of Cloud Computing On-demand self-service – Provisioning of computing service can be done automatically without human intervention. Broad network…
Operational Technology (OT)
Operational Technology (OT) is combination of hardware and software that manages, controls and monitors the physical devices and Industry processes. An industry either extracts raw materials (Primary Industry Sector) or manufacturing goods (Secondary Industry Sector) or provide services (Tertiary Industry Sector). Each industry has it’s own set of unique physical equipments and machinery that should…
Internet Of Things (IoT)
Internet of Things (IoT) is network of physical objects or things that are embedded with sensors that connect and communicate with other devices over Internet without human intervention. Things can be any physical object like car, fridge, pen, thermostat, HVAC. These physical objects have software and hardware and capable of processing data. These physical objects…
Bluetooth Attacks
Bluetooth is a short range wireless technology based on IEEE 802.15.1 that uses radio waves for data and voice communication. Bluetooth is used for Personal Area Network (PAN) for connecting personal devices on wireless. As bluetooth is communicated in an open space it’s susceptible for attacks. The following are various bluetooth attacks: Bluejacking – Unsolicited messages…
WI-FI Wireless Attacks
WI-FI Wireless uses radio waves for communication between wireless devices that are connected to the WI-FI network. As the wireless devices uses the open space for communication, it’s an open target for attacks. Attackers use WI-FI wireless attack methodologies before performing the actual attack. The following are the attacks performed on WI-FI wireless networks: DoS…
Wi-Fi Wireless Hacking Methodology
Wi-Fi uses wireless for communication in an open space which makes it easy target for attackers. Wi-Fi Network is available almost everywhere at streets, organizations, public infrastructure. An attacker just needs a computing device like a laptop or mobile to hack a Wi-Fi network. The following is the Wi-Fi wireless hacking methodology: Discover the Wi-Fi…
Wireless Security
Wireless Security is the security mechanism implemented in Wi-Fi Wireless network to protect it from un-authorized access performed by attackers. IEEE 802.11i is the security standard amendment for IEEE 802.11 wireless standard. Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) was the initial security algorithm used in IEEE 802.11. WEP was vulnerable and exploitable. Wi-Fi Alliance brought in WPA…
Ciphertext
Ciphertext is the encrypted form of the plaintext that is encrypted by an encryption algorithm. When a data needs to be transmitted but kept confidential, so that nobody can read the data while in transit, encryption process is used. On the sender side, the plaintext is given as input into encryption algorithm which does complex…
Wireless Network
Wireless Network is a Network that uses Wireless for Communication for data and voice transmission. Wireless Network doesn’t use physical cables for data transmission rather it uses radio waves to transmit data. Wireless Personal Area Network, Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), Cellular Networks, Wireless Metropolitan Area Network (WMAN), Wireless Wide Area Network (WWAN) are various Wireless…
