Hot Spot 2.0 A wireless local area network (LAN) node that provides internet connection and virtual private network (VPN) access from a given location for users of devices with wireless connectivity is a Hot Spot. Now a days hot spots are common in airports, libraries, hotels, coffee shops etc. A user can connect to a hot spot manually by checking the wireless connection options then selecting one of them and entering authentication information which is usually a simple password. The establishment who owns the Hot Spot determines the range of the wireless router whose radius generally is about 100 to 200 meters. Hotspot 2.0 networks are a new wireless standard designed to make it easier and more secure to connect to public Wi-Fi hotspots. They’re supported in the latest version of Windows 10, macOS 10.9 or newer, Android 6.0 or newer, and iOS 7 or newer. Hot Spot 2.0 (HS 2.0), also called Wi-Fi Certified Passpoint is the new standard for public-access Wi-Fi. It e

DNS (Domain Name System) was designed, nobody expected that there would be so many address changes such as adding a new host, removing a host, or changing an IP address. When there is a change, the change must be made to the DNS master file which needs a lot of manual updating and it must be updated dynamically. DDNS DDNS stands for Dynamic Domain Name System. It is a method of automatically updating a name server in the Domain Name Server (DNS), often in real-time, with the active DDNS configuration of its configured hostnames, addresses, or other information. In DDNS, when a binding between a name and an address is determined, the information is sent, usually by DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) to a primary DNS server. Dynamic DNS (DDNS or DynDNS) is a mechanism by which the name server in the Domain Name System (DNS) is automatically updated with the custom domain name and the ever-changing IP addresses. The DNS method is helpful in the ca

As we have already discussed about honeypot in our last blog and here we are going to discuss about advantages and disadvantages of the honeypot, before we start if you have not gone through our last blog then click here and go through What is honeypot? Advantages of honeypot: Honeypots collect data from actual attacks and other unauthorized activities, providing analysts with a rich source of useful information. Acts as a rich source of information and helps collect real-time data. Identifies malicious activity even if encryption is used. Wastes hackers’ time and resources. Improves security. Ordinary cybersecurity detection technologies generate alerts that can include a significant volume of false positives, but honeypots reduce this volume because there is no reason for legitimate users to access them. Honeypots can be good investments because they do not require high-performance resources to process large volumes of network traffic looking for attacks, because
