Alty Signs Deal with Netki for Digital Validation
Tags: Trading Bot, Kyc, Chatbots, Security, Crypto

Alty has thousands of people with a crypto-wallet in WhatsApp and Telegram. How? Frictionless onboarding.

Billions of dollars are spent on user acquisition — a figure that is heavily skewed towards app downloads. One of the hardest tasks in marketing is getting someone to add yet another app to their phones. Alty functions through apps like WhatsApp and Telegram that everyone already has and Alty is making their tech available so crypto exchanges can onboard new customers in seconds, and at a fraction of the cost.

The partnership with Netki has been critical for connecting users with trading platforms — it is the most advanced identification-validation available.

The Alty Wallet is built into any chat platform and is cross-compatible which means that novices dipping their toes into crypto can start trading as fast as veterans regardless of what app they use to chat.

Users are now able to onboard, send, receive and exchange crypto directly from within a chat. This has completely cleaned up the onboarding process for people creating crypto-wallets. What was once a process of pass-phrases and endless questionnaires has turned into a single text message.

Just type /onboardme

Netki is a prestigious organisation and Alty are proud to be a part of their continued success.

Create a network Topology Setup in such a way so that System A can ping to two Systems System B and System C but both these systems should not be pinging each other without using any security rule e.g firewall etc . Kuldeepkumawat Dec 27, 2020·2 min read

So here we are going to create the network in which we have three machine having different ip address and we are going to setup that machine A can ping to B and C but the B also ping to a but not able to ping C and same in the case of the C machine.

here is the setup for the machine A having Ip 192.168.43.1

Now the setup for the machine B

now the setup for the machine C

so we setup the machine now we are going to test the machines,

So we can see the a can able to ping with b and c both .

but the machine c can ping only to a not to b.

same case b cant ping to machine c but ping to a.
Raspberry Pi, iPadOS and Zeroconf
By: Chris Hare
Tags: Raspberry Pi, Networking, Zeroconf, iPad

Thanks to my sweetheart for picking another Raspberry Pi off my wish list, I added another Raspberry Pi 4B to my collection. (Okay, I only have two of them. So far.) I was confounded over the last few days when I couldn’t reach the Pi over the network from my iPad. My iPad Pro is my primary computing device, and I use the Pi’s as the server side for research, writing code and experimentation.

I was convinced the problem was the Pi. Everything worked before and was only flaky now there was two of them. The Pi configurations both used the hostname.local network. At first the two Pi’s couldn’t find each other. That was corrected by a reboot. However, the iPad still couldn’t see either Pi, although it could see other devices.

I finally looked at the iPad network configuration. It turned out the iPad was actually connected to the wrong network. I have a wireless LAN inside the house, and a wireless LAN outside the house using a Wavlink AC600 outdoor Wifi extender. As it happened, at some point the iPad shunted over to the Wavlink network. Once I changed the iPad to connect to the same network the two Pi machines are on, everything worked great.

I point this out hoping that others who are trying to reach an mDNS/Zeroconf/Bonjour device can learn from my error.

Incidentally, my wife’s iMac switched over to the outside network, which was causing her some bandwidth issues. Removing those networks and enabling the option to ask to join a network, resolved the issue.

Create a setup that can connect with the particular server but not with others
Tags: Networking, Route Table, Vimal Daga, Gateway, Righteducation

ping to Google but not with Facebook

Agenda:

✨ Create a Setup so that you can ping google but not able to ping Facebook from the same system

Creating these kinds of setups are very easy if we know the right concepts. Basically, it requires knowledge of the routing table. In this task, we are going to use RHEL8 Linux.

Let's get started….

Just follow these steps and we can create this setup.

Step 1: First, Let’s check the routing table. route -n command will display the routing table of your computer.

The first raw of the table, it’s an import rule for us because if we remove it, we can not ping to any of the IPs in the world but we are gonna remove it.

But first, let’s ping to Facebook and Google. Here nslookup command will help us to find the IP of Google and Facebook.

IPs of Google and Facebook

Now, We have both the IPs, right:)

Let’s ping to them.

Ping to www.google.com

Ping to www.facebook.com

For now, we can able to ping Google and Facebook

Step 2: Second, remove the rule of connection to all. To do it right route del -net 0.0.0.0

After the deleting of the first rule

Now, We can’t ping Google or Facebook either.

Step 3: Add the rule for google.

route add -net <network_IP> netmask <netmask_IP> gw <gateway_IP> <NIC_cardname>. This command will add the new rule to the routing table.

After the add the rule to the routing table

This setup will able to connect with Google’s servers but can not connect to Facebook.

Modification in Routing Table
By: Gaurav Gupta
Tags: Topology, Routing, Networking, Firewall, Google

Is it possible to ping Google but not Facebook from the same system…🤔

Well, most of us say that we can use Firewall simply… That’s work fine, but here I do modification in my Routing Table to allow only specific site…

I’m using Redhat Linux for showing this demo…

Before starting, let’s know some about the Routing table.

Router:

A Router is a networking device that usually use to connect two or more than two different networks. This is the one which forwards data packet between different devices. For example, a router provides you internet access by connecting your LAN with the Internet.

Whenever a node sends data to another node on the network, it must first know where to send it. If the node is not directly connected, then it sends it via other nodes along a route to the destination node. Each node needs to keep track of way to deliver data, and for this, it uses a routing table.

Routing Table:

A routing table is a database that keeps track of paths, like a map, and uses these to determine which way to forward traffic. A routing table is a data file in RAM that is used to store route information about directly connected and remote networks. Nodes can also share the contents of their routing table with other nodes.

This route table gives information of Destination IP, Gateway, Interface, Netmask, metrics, etc.

If we remove the first line of the routing table, we aren’t able to connect to the internet. So let me show my demo now…

-> Finding the IP of Google server:

For this, we use nslookup command…

-> Editing my routing table:

First I delete the row of routing table, which I use to connect to the Interet.

Now If I try to connect to the Internet, It never connects.

So let me add Google IP (which we find in the upper step) in routing table, so that we can connect to Google only.

-> Check it is pingable or not:

And let me find out the IP of Facebook/any other site and try to ping that…

You can see that it is not pingable…

By using same way, you can allow only a limited site to your system.

TASK COMPLETED…🤗

Do Clap if you find it worth…🙌

Thanks for reading :)

Restricting the communication between computers in the same network without using a firewall
By: Ankush Chavan
Tags: Computer Science, Routing, Networking, Firewall, Network

The architecture that we will create in this article is something like this — We have three computers let's say A, B, and C. Here what we want is that A can ping to B and C, B and C can ping to A but B and C can’t ping each other. This can be achieved easily using a firewall but instead of using a firewall, we will achieve this using pure networking concepts.

Pre-requisites:

Three computes connected to the same network.

Step 1: Setup Computer A to ping computer B and C

Let’s say, computer A has an IP 192.168.43.36, B has an IP 192.168.43.249 and C has an IP 192.168.43.21.

Computer A

Let’s look at the Routing Table of computer A.

$ route -n

As we can see in the above rule, we can ping any IP in the world. As we want to ping both the computers, we will not restrict computer A from any of the IP.

Step 2: Setup computer B and computer C to ping only computer A

Now, we want that computer B and computer C can only ping to computer A.

So, first of all, we will remove all of the routing rules from computer B and C.

Now, if we tried to ping to any of the IP we can’t ping because there is no routing rule present.

After that, we will assign a new IP to computer B and computer C.

We will assign IP 192.168.44.249/255.255.0.0 to computer B.

$ ifconfig enp0s3 192.168.44.249 netmask 255.255.0.0

We will assign IP 192.168.45.21/255.255.0.0 to computer C.

$ ifconfig enp0s3 192.168.45.21 netmask 255.255.0.0

Step 3: Adding routing rule to computer B and computer C that will only allow to ping to computer A

Now, we had set up the computer B and computer C with the IP addresses. The next step is to add the routing rule to computer B and computer C that will only allow to ping to computer A.

Let’s add the routing rule to computer B.

$ route add -net 192.168.43.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 enp0s3

And add the same routing rule to computer C.

Step 4: Check if computer A is able to ping computer B and C and vice versa.

Now, go to computer A and see if we can ping to computer B and computer C.

The above image shows that we can ping to computer B from computer A.

And we can ping to computer A from computer B.

Now, try to ping computer C from computer A and vice versa.

Using the power of beer and some diagram I found on the internet: 2020 A Year in Review Remy Dec 23, 2020·13 min read

2020 has been a long year.

Camus claims that when Sisyphus acknowledges the futility of his task and the certainty of his fate, he is freed to realize the absurdity of his situation and to reach a state of contented acceptance. With a nod to the similarly cursed Greek hero Oedipus, Camus concludes that “all is well,” indeed, that “one must imagine Sisyphus happy.”

My avatar icon is a Rat because I like Rats, but also a lot of times I feel like a Rat in a maze; Trapped in complexity. One must imagine Remy happy.

Listed below the fold are personal projects I undertook this year. Some are one-offs, some are crazy behemoths, some I literally don’t remember if there was ever a purpose. I’ll talk about each a little bit as well as link to the Twitter thread where they took place if the topic is of interest to you.

This is a year in review of pushing various stones to the top of the hill only to see them roll back again. And that’s okay. I had a hell of a lot of fun in the process and I’d do it all again.

Secure Network Administration Concept [Part 6]

Ruled-based management

Additional secure network administration concepts.

Rule-Based management field.

Used to create a secure network environment. Rule-Based management should be designed and tested to ensure that the rule function as expected.

Firewall rules.

Should be configured in such a way that only the required traffic can pass through.

Whenever possible, the default rule should be denying traffic. Exceptions are then created to allow the required traffic.

The last rule on any firewall should be an implicit deny statement.

Unless explicitly allowed, the traffic is denied entry into the network.

Access Control List (ACL).

Firewall rules often called ACLs.

Files and folders can have ACLs placed on them using permissions.

The router can have two ACLs per network interface:

> One ACL is on the inbound side of the interface.

> The other ACL is on the outbound of the interface.

All ACLs end with an implicit denies the statement:

> If not explicitly allowed in the ACL, the traffic or request is denied.

Once created, the ACL should be tested for functionality:

> To ensure that the required action is allowed.

> To ensure that non-required action is not allowed.

Additional secure network administration concepts

Secure router configuration:

Put active ACLs in a place. Disable default username and password. Require passwords for all access to the router. Whenever possible, use only secure protocol for access.

2. Port Security:

Enable security on all switch ports. This limits the ability of an attacker to gain access through a switch. MAC filtering is the security method that is most used.

3. Network Separation:

Separate and group network resources by function and security needs. This can create more secure areas within a network. Separation can be achieved through VLAN management.

4. VLAN management:

Change default management VLANs. Proper VLAN management keeps network traffic where it belongs. To allow inter-VLAN communication, the traffic must pass through a router.

5. Flood Guards:

Most common attack is DOS attack. The attacker floods the network with traffic to block legitimate traffic. Flood guards can recognize the pattern and defend from flood attack.

6. Loop protection:

Preventing unnecessary network traffic. Redundant routes can create routing loops. Routers use a time-to-live (TTL) value and split horizon to combat this. Redundant links on switches can also creates loops. Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) will negate the loops.

7. 802.1x:

802.1x is an authentication protocol used on wireless networks. It requires users to authenticate against a central database before access to the network is granted.

8. Unified Management:

is a possible all-in-one security solution. UTM system provide multiple security function (firewall and antivirus) ian a single network appliance.

9. Log Analysis:

How to Get a Response From A Prospect
By: Jacob Morgan
Tags: Networking, Entrepreneurship, Be Your Own Boss, Future Of Work, Outreach

Have a person you want to interview, a product you want to sell, or a connection you want to make? You’ll likely send that person an email.

But chances are you’re not the only one who wants to target a person, and they might get dozens of similar messages every day. And they probably delete 95% of them.

If you want to get a response, you’ve got to do some research to make your message stand out.

My wife Blake made a video about this which you can see below. If you want more content like this then make sure to subscribe to the Be Your Own Boss Podcast Youtube Channel where Blake and I teach you how you can be your own boss.

Here are Blake’s three proven ways to get a response from someone you are targeting:

Don’t send mass emails or LinkedIn messages

When you send a canned email to a huge group of people, it shows you lack ethics and aren’t willing to put the time in to get results. So many people send mass messages addressed to “whom it may concern” instead of putting in an actual name. Instead, take two minutes and write a message to each person you are targeting. Even just putting adding their name and something personal puts you ahead of 95% of people.

Google the person you are targeting

Before you send your message, do some research. A quick Google search can tell you what’s happening in their life now. That information helps you craft a message that is personalized and interesting to them. Discover what’s happening in their company, their industry, or their personal life, and then use that to build a connection and craft a personalized message.

Figure out a way to be relevant

People care about messages that matter to them right now. Why should they pay attention to you? Make your pitch personal and relevant. If the message isn’t interesting or relate to them, they aren’t going to respond. Tie your pitch into their life and career and show them why they should care about it right now.

Blake and I made lots of mistakes during our entrepreneurial journey and learned things the hard way, but you don’t have to. Whether you are considering going off on your own or you already have, this will be a valuable resource for you. Download our PDF on the 7 things you need to master if you want to be a successful entrepreneur.

Following these tips is sure to help you get a response from the people you are targeting. It might not always be the response you want, but it’s a step in the right direction and shows they even cared enough to respond at all.

Sending targets messages takes time, but if you follow these three tips you’ll be on your way to better success.

Every successful (or even unsuccessful) entrepreneur says that number one priority for people like him should to be network like mad.

So why do entrepreneurs network so vigorously? Well, some studies show that 70% of the deals funded come through referrals. Some VCs even insist that all the business plans that come to them directly (through email) usually end up going to either spam or trash folder. Neither folder is a good destination. So moral of the story is: if you *ever* want to get venture funding in your life make sure you know a couple of people who know VCs. And what better way to know these people except going to conferences, having a chat and then exchanging business cards with them.

But it doesn’t just end here. Come on, now admit that of all business cards you have, how many people you actually know and how many would you like to refer to somebody in future. Chances are that the number is zero. In India, people just dole out their business cards at every opportunity possible (even I do that!). With this deluge of business cards pouring in to the person you want to network with, how do you make sure that he actually remembers you?

The answer is two-fold: have a non-standard card which stands out of the bunch and follow up with the person honestly. Following up is much important than having an oval shaped magenta colored card. After you hand over your card to someone, graciously ask for her card. And then after 1–2 days, email her saying that you enjoyed meeting her and then end the email with a broad question. This will force her to reply so that you can continue with the conversation for weeks to come and form a strong relationship.

And even generally, if you come across someone’s homepage who is interesting, just shoot him (for example, me) a mail and form a connection. Trust me, this would really, really help you in long term.

What is a Computer Network??

A computer network is a group of computers that use a set of common communication protocols over digital interconnections for the purpose of sharing resources located on or provided by the network nodes.

What is an IP address??

An Internet Protocol address is a numerical label assigned to each device connected to a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication. An IP address serves two main functions: host or network interface identification and location addressing.

What is Private and Public IP??

Private IP address is used with a local network and public IP address is used outside the network. Public IP address is provided by ISP, Internet Service Provider. Private IP Address is used to communicate within the network. Public IP Address is used to communicate outside the network.

What is Ping command?

Ping is the primary TCP/IP command used to troubleshoot connectivity, reachability, and name resolution. Used without parameters, this command displays Help content. We can also use this command to test both the computer name and the IP address of the computer.

Some Other Important commands used in the Setup of Task 13

1. route -n

Used to view the contents of the routing table

2. route add

Used to add a new rule in the routing table.

3. route del

Used to delete an existing rule in the routing table

4. ping -4

Used to ping to an address through IPv4 routing table.

5. nslookup

Used to get some information about the public IP address a domain name on the Internet.

It is fair to say that Sales depend mostly on Marketing. After all, how is anyone supposed to invest in your business, product, listen to your music, see your article, appreciate your talent…if they don’t know about it? The advertising industry turns over billions every year and it is estimated that the worldwide advertising spend for 2020 alone will be approximately $517 billion.

‘Most recent data indicates that the title of the largest global advertiser can be awarded to Samsung Electronics. The tech giant spent 11.2 billion U.S. dollars on promoting its products worldwide in 2017.’

Ok, so the average person doesn’t have access to millions in free cash to promote their idea. But what steps can you take to advertise without breaking the bank…but do it well?
Introduction to Network — #2 Basic Switch & End Devices Configuration

2.1 — Cisco IOS Access

2.1.1 — Operating Systems

All end devices and network devices require an operating system (OS).

As shown in the figure, the portion of the OS that interacts directly with computer hardware is known as the kernel. The portion that interfaces with applications and the user is known as the shell. The user can interact with the shell using a command-line interface (CLI) or a graphical user interface (GUI).

When using a CLI, the user interacts directly with the system in a text-based environment by entering commands on the keyboard at a command prompt.

[analyst@secOps ~]$ ls

Desktop Downloads lab.support.files second_drive

[analyst@secOps ~]$

2.1.2 — Graphical User Interface (GUI)

A GUI such as Windows, macOS, Linux KDE, Apple iOS, or Android allows the user to interact with the system using an environment of graphical icons, menus, and windows.

GUIs can also fail, crash, or simply not operate as specified. For these reasons, network devices are typically accessed through a CLI. The CLI is less resource-intensive and very stable when compared to a GUI.

Cisco IOS (Internetwork Operating System) is used on many Cisco routers and switches regardless of the type or size of the device. Each device router or switch type uses a different version of the Cisco IOS. Other Cisco operating systems include IOS XE, IOS XR, and NX-OS.

2.1.3 — Purpose of an OS

A PC operating system enables a user to do the following:

Use a mouse to make selections and run programs

Enter text and text-based commands

View output on a monitor

A CLI-based network operating system (e.g., the Cisco IOS on a switch or router) enables a network technician to do the following:

Use a keyboard to run CLI-based network programs

Use a keyboard to enter text and text-based commands

View output on a monitor

Cisco networking devices run particular versions of the Cisco IOS. The IOS version is dependent on the type of device being used and the required features.

The figure displays a list of IOS software releases for a Cisco Catalyst 2960 Switch.

2.1.4 — Access Methods

A switch will forward traffic by default and does not need to be explicitly configured to operate.

Regardless of the default behavior of a new switch, all switches should be configured and secured.

2.1.5 — Terminal Emulation Programs

There are several terminal emulation programs you can use to connect to a networking device either by a serial connection over a console port, or by an SSH/Telnet connection.

Understanding Network Switches
Tags: Cisco Networking Switches, Cisco Networks, Networking, Cisco Distributors

Networks today are essential for supporting businesses, providing communication, delivering entertainment — the list goes on and on. A fundamental element networks have in common is the network switch, which helps connect devices for the purpose of sharing resources.

A network switch is a networking hardware that connects devices on a computer network by using packet switching to receive and forward data to the destination device.A network switch is a multiport network bridge that uses MAC addresses to forward data at the data link layer of the OSI model.

Switches are key building blocks for any network. They connect multiple devices, such as computers, wireless access points, printers, and servers; on the same network within a building or campus. A switch enables connected devices to share information and talk to each other.

Unmanaged switches: An unmanaged network switch is designed so that you can simply plug them in and they work, no configuration required. Unmanaged switches are typically for basic connectivity.

Managed switches: Managed switches give you greater security and more features and flexibility because you can configure them to custom-fit your network. With this greater control, you can better protect your network and improve the quality of service for those who access the network.

Network hubs and switches: A network hub is a central connection point for devices in a local area network, or LAN. But there’s a limit to the amount of bandwidth users can share on a hub-based network. The more devices are added to the network hub, the longer it takes data to reach its destination. A switch avoids these and other limitations of network hubs.

Cisco network switches in Dubai are considered one of the best in the market. Their great connectivity makes them stand out from its competitors. Datagram is one of the leading distributors of enterprise IT Security & Networking Products in MENA, UAE & Africa. They are the authorized distributor of Cisco switches in UAE. They are also an authorized distributor of a range of IT, communication, and network security products & solutions.
OSPF Introduction
By: Saragam Subedi
Tags: Ospf, Routing, Networking

Fundamental concept

OSPF is a routing protocol which stands for Open Shortest Path First. OSPF is a link state routing protocol which means routing decisions are made depending upon the speed of the link. Higher the bandwidth higher will be the link priority. It is an interior gateway protocol (IGP) which operates within an autonomous system (AS). OSPF version 2 was introduced in 1998 for IPV4 routing. For IPV6, OSPF vesrion3 was introduced in 2008. It is an open standard or vendor independent.

OSPF has largely replaced RIP (Routing information Protocol) in networking paradigm simply because of its fast convergence, security, classless inter-domain routing and the fact the it takes the routing decision based on link state (bandwidth) which is more sensible than what RIP does (based on HOP count). The best path determined by RIP in terms of less hop count may not be best from OSPF if the bandwidth cost of an alternative path is less even if the hop count is greater.

Using OSPF, a router that learns of a change to a routing table and immediately multicasts the information to all other OSPF hosts in the network so that they can also update their routing table information. Unlike RIP, which requires routers to send the entire routing table to neighbors every 30 seconds, OSPF sends only the part that has changed and only when a change has taken place.

OSPF is classless routing protocol whereas RIP is a classful routing protocol. That means RIP considers 10.10.10.0/24 as 10.0.0.0 network.

How OSPF works

OSPF works by generating LSA (link state advertisement) sharing with neighboring routers. LSA are maintained in LSDB (link state database) and contains information such as:

• Router id of the router.

• Network that the router is aware of

• Cost of the path it knows

Before initiating LSA sharing, routers must form neighbors. Once routers are neighbors, they start comparing their LSA by sending DBD (Database Description) packet. DBD gives the overview of LSA that the neighboring router has maintained in its database. Once a router gets the overview of the LSA from its neighbor, it sends a request message in the form of LSR (link state request) to that neighbor. As a reply the neighboring router sends an update in the form of LSU (Link state update). The router updates its LSDB after getting the LSU from its neighbor.
