Whenever we browse the internet, we see some site URLs, there is a padlock present and in some, it is absent. The presence of this padlock symbolizes secure communication between the user and the server. This padlock consists of a secure communication certificate and that certificate communication is called SSL Certificate communication i.e., Secure Socket Layer. SSL's function is to build a secure chain of trust between the user and the server. The certificate is provided by a Certificate Authority (CAs) like Let’s Encrypt, Bypass, Comodo, GeoTrust et cetera, which actually builds the chain of trust running the certificate validation in a hierarchical manner. Most modern web browsers have flagged sites without SSL/TLS as insecure or unsafe. Going forward, SSL/TLS certificate may become a mandatory website hosting requirement . By hosting a website with SSL/TLS certificate, it provides security  to  the data transferred between the website and the Website visitor, by encryptin...

LAMP SERVER installation through Repository Packages

Image
The website you see or the blog you are reading right now is working on a web server and to write that website some coding language has been used, using a database to store the information. Thus, when these components work together to serve a web page or website to the user or visitor, they create a LAMP Server. These components together are called LAMP Stack.   By LAMP Stack here means is; (L) inux as Operating System (OS) (A) pache as Web Server (WS) (M) ySQL as a Database (DB) (P) HP (Hypertext preprocessor) as a programming language,   But for these OS, WS, DB, and programming languages, other options can also be considered. For in place of LINUX, one can use windows, then, it will be called WAMP, or In place of PHP, perl or python can be used or APACHE can be replaced by nginx or mariadb can be used in place of MySQL. All 4 components are used or opted for according to the requirements. Why LAMP server, when other forms of the server are present there? ...

Cyber Security, Time Demands

Cybercriminals target customers personally and organizations via information like address, name, Credit card information etcetera. Cybersecurity domains: If the user can follow a well-defined strategy for protection in order to defend against any cybercrime or cyber-attacks, one can safeguard the information and data from cybercriminals. There are layers of prot...

Cloud Computing

Every computing service that can be delivered over the Internet mode is known as cloud computing. The computing involves resources like tools and applications as data servers, networking, data storage, and software. The name cloud computing comes as a virtual space/ cloud space having the information that is accesssible and stored in the cloud space only and computing of all the information and data is known as cloud computing. The biggest advantage of this is that the user who is using it, don't require to gain access to a specific location to access the data, the user can work remotely.  The cloud computing can be done via public as well as private mode referring to what access you want to use or want to give to the user as well. Types of Cloud Services:  Cloud computing services give its users a series of function that includes, email, data analyzing, audio and video streaming, delivery of software on demand, creating and testing apps, VM creation and storage, data retreiva...
