Some HAcKing Terms ! Generally Used



INFOSEC 


*Information security, which is the practices of Preventing unauthorized access, use, Disclosure, disruption, Modification, Inspection, Recording or destruction of information . type information or data may take any form, e.g. Electronic or physical. Infosec can also be a person who practices ethical security.


OPSEC


*Operation security, which is a process that identifies critical information to determine if friendly actions can be observed by enemy intelligence, determine if information obtained by Adversaries could be interpreted to be useful to them, and then executes selected measures that eliminate or reduce adversary exploitation of friendly critical information.


RED TEAM


*The Red Team is an Independent  Group that Challenges an organization to improve its effectiveness by assuming an adversarial role or point of view. It is particularly effective In organization With Strong Culture and Fixed ways of Approaching Problems.


BLUE TEAM


*A Blue team is a group of individuals who perform an analysis of information system to ensure Security, Identify security Flaws, Verify the effectiveness of each Security Measures and to make certain all security measure  will continue to be effective after implementation. As a result, Blue teams Were Developed to design defensive measures against red team activities . They are Defenders.


PENETRATION TESTER 


*An Ethical hacker who practice security, Test Application And System to prevent Intrusions or find vulnerabilities.


SECURITY RESEARCHERS


*Someone who practice pen testing and browser the web to find phishing/fake websites, infected servers, bugs or vulnerabilities. he can work for a company as a security consultant, he is most likely a Blue Teamer .


THREAT HUNTER


*A Threat Hunter, also called a cyber security threat analyst, is a security professional or managed service provider ( MSP ) that proactively uses manual or machine assisted technique to detect security Incidents that may elude the grasp of automated system.

Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and its Applications

Image
Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) PCR is an enzymatic process in which a specific region of DNA is replicated over and over again to yield many copies of a particular sequence. This method combines the principles of complementary nucleic acid hybridization with those of nucleic acid replication applied repeatedly through numerous cycles. The most widely used target nucleic acid amplification method is the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). This method is able to amplify a single copy of a nucleic acid target, often undetectable by standard hybridization methods, and multiply to 10 7  or more copies in a relatively short period. This thus provides ample target that can be readily detected by numerous methods. APPLICATIONS OF PCR PCR can amplify a single DNA molecule from a complex mixture, largely avoiding the need to use DNA cloning to prepare that molecule. Variants of the technique can similarly amplify a specific single RNA molecule from a complex mixture. DNA sequencing has been greatl

REAL TIME PCR and its Application notes

Image
REAL TIME PCR   Real-time polymerase chain reaction ( qPCR ) is commonly used to measure gene expression . It is more sensitive than micro arrays in detecting small changes in expression but requires more input RNA and is less adaptable to high-throughput studies.  It is best suited for studies of small subsets of genes.  Its one major shortcoming is that the sequence of the specific target gene of interest must be known (so you can design the PCR primers),  hence real-time PCR can only be used for studying  known genes .   It is also known as a  quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) , which is a laboratory technique of molecular biology based on the polymerase chain reaction . PRINCIPLE OF REAL TIME PCR(qPCR). This same principle of amplification of PCR is employed in real-time PCR. But instead of looking at bands on a gel at the end of the reaction, the process is monitored in “real-time”. The reaction is placed into a real-time PCR machine that watches the reaction occur wi

Six Powerful Attacks In Cyber world .

Image
  Six Big Attacks 1. DDOS Attack   * A Distributed Denial of Service  A ttack  is an attempt to make an online service unavailable by overwhelming it with traffic from multiple sources. 2. Phishing. * Phishing attack  attempt to gain sensitive, confidential information such as usernames, passwords, credit card information, network credentials, and more . 3. Backdoor. * A Backdoor  is a means to access a computer system or encrypted data that bypasses the system's customary security mechanisms.  A developer may create a backdoor so that an application or operating system can be accessed for troubleshooting or other purposes.  4. Man in the middle attack. * A Man In The Middle attack  (MITM) is an attack against a cryptographic protocol. As the name implies, in this attack the attacker sits in the middle and negotiates different cryptographic parameters with the client and the server  . 5. SQL injection. * A SQL injection  attack consists of insertion or “injection” of a SQL query v
