Xiaomi Mi 3: First impressions review of the 'Chinese Apple's' Rs 13,999 flagship phone

Xiaomi Mi 3: First impressions review of the 'Chinese Apple's' Rs 13,999 flagship phone

Undefined Soul 11:54 PM Add Comment
Making its India debut, the fast-rising Chinese handset maker Xiaomi - which is often referred to as Apple of China - announced the launch of its three new handsets, including its flagship smartphone Mi 3, at its event in New Delhi. The Xiaomi Mi 3 is priced at Rs 13,999, while the other two phones launched under the Redmi series are priced under Rs 10,000.

Many of the experts got their hands on the Mi 3 smartphone at the launch event and here's what they thought of the phone, which the company claims is even faster than the Samsung Galaxy S5.

At first look, the Xiaomi Mi 3 reminded of the Lumia 800 as it borrows a lot of design elements from Microsoft-owned Nokia's early warriors. The Mi 3 looks good and has an elegant appeal to it. The phone's lightweight and its curved sides make it comfortable to grip. The matte-finished back adds to its beauty. Unlike the Rs 9,999 Redmi Note, the Mi 3's back panel is not removable and the phone supports only one SIM.

The phone's 5-inch 1080p IPS display has a good colour reproduction and great viewing angles. The touchscreen on the phone is very responsive and was smooth to navigate.

The disappointing thing in the phone was Xiaomi's India-specific theme. The icons used in the India theme are too gaudy for most smartphones users. But there is a way to switch the default theme and the looks improved.

The user interface is more like the one you find on other Android phones, but on exploring the apps, you see how different the interface is. For instance, the keyboard in the messaging app has all the numbers on the right - unlike their usual horizontal placement. I liked its calculator app as it looks a lot like the common Casio calculators.

Xiaomi places a high focus on themes for the phone. You get to see the different themes available, you might think different about it. The phone runs Android 4.4 with MIUI version 5.

The 13 megapixel camera with a dual-LED flash on the phone captures quality photographs, but don't expect them to be detailed. Its camera captures a good amount of light that makes the results impressive, but how well it fares in low-light conditions is yet to be tested. The 2-megapixel front camera is streets ahead of others phones in this price bracket; it won't disappoint selfie lovers. The phone is capable of recording 1080p videos.

The phone's 16GB of internal storage offers around 13.4GB of user-accessible storage space. There is no microSD card slot for additional storage. Beating under the hood is Qualcomm's 2.3GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor along with 2GB of RAM. It's too early to comment on its performance, so we are leaving it for the exhaustive review of the Xiaomi Mi 3 that would follow soon. The phone's speakers also appeared to produce loud and quality sound.

Altogether, the phone seems to be a good deal for its price but we are still holding our horses.

Ethical hacker Ankit Fadia is a fake

Undefined Soul 9:54 PM Add Comment
Soon after Microsoft India's online store was hacked last week, rumours swirled in Twitter that ethical
hacker Ankit Fadia had been hired as a security consultant by the software giant. He denies these rumours, calling them baseless.

Fadia feels that the hacking of the Microsoft website allegedly by a China-based group is part of trend that is here to stay. "The hacking of the Microsoft, CIA and the BSF websites happened within days of each other. Such hacking incidents happen all the time. There is no use overreacting as the hacking attacks will continue," says Fadia, also a bestselling author blamed for extensive plagiarising.

The hacker group, calling itself the Evil Shadow Team, stole from the Microsoft website usernames and passwords that it admittedly found unencrypted. "No system in the world is secure. If the CIA cannot fully protect its website, how can ordinary Indian companies. The firms should, however, be more pro-active about their security."

Fadia recently released How to Unblock Everything on the Internet, a book that shows how to allow sites restricted at workplaces, colleges or countries. "The book has been written for users who are not tech savvy. The book is intended to be

easily understood and contains screenshots of 50 techniques for unblocking sites," he explains.
The author of over a dozen books has often been accused of plagiarism and making tall claims. A security professional, who uses the handle @FakeAnkitFadia on Twitter, told The Sunday Guardian, "The first book that Fadia 'wrote' at the age of 14, The Unofficial Guide to Ethical Hacking, was a little over 32% plagiarised from other security publications and websites."

The security professional also burns holes in Fadia's claims of being featured in The New York Times Best Sellers List. "I have not found any mention of him in the list going back 50 years, either in the fiction or the non-fiction category." He points out that Fadia's statement that his website on hacking was ranked the second best in the world by the FBI is untrue, because the investigative agency has no such system of ranking.

The security professional says that he has been attending Black Hat and Defcon, the largest hacker conferences in the world, for the past 10 years but claims to have never seen Fadia attending them.
Blogger Sandip Dev lists reasons for Fadia being famous, despite his tarnished image. "The masses see computer security as some sort of dark magic whereas it is a systematic process, a science. Hence, these people can be easily fooled by the likes of Fadia. The other aspect is obviously shoddy journalism. Papers print whatever catches the readers' attention. A child prodigy in computers does just that and our 'idol crazy' nation laps it up."

A Facebook page, called We Hate Ankit Fadia, contains some scathing attacks on the celebrity author. "A Hacker should be a tool. Tools do not make anyone a hacker," says a comment, in reference to Fadia's books that teach hacking. "He is nothing but just a person with very good luck," says another comment.
Mohit Agarwal, who is associated with the Facebook page, cites at least six instances, twice of them this year, when Fadia's own website was hacked. "Fadia has spent his entire career talking about hacking and security, but has not performed penetration testing, has not secured networks and only offered pedestrian 'hacking' training re-branded as a certification bearing his own name," Agarwal says, referring to courses that Fadia runs in association with Reliance. "Just because he knows how to Google, he cannot be a hacker. He is a fake."

Apple IOS 8 : New Features

Apple IOS 8 : New Features

Undefined Soul 7:33 PM Add Comment
Many of the new features coming in iOS 8 are hidden under the surface or need developer pickup before they can be used, but there are a number of additions that beta testers can try out today.

iOS 8
Apple's WWDC keynote was chock full of new features, some for the end user and a ton for developers. Though not as sexy as new hardware, Apple's iOS ecosystem relies on developers to make the apps that keep bringing users back.
The new developer features are an incredibly opportunity for app makers, but it will be a few months before the end users begin to see the fruits of their labor.
Instead, here's a look at some of the new features that consumers will enjoy when iOS 8 comes out this fall.


1. Access apps from the lock screen

In iOS 7, apps like the official Starbucks app could put notifications on the lock screen to prompt user activity. In Starbucks' case, when users were located near a Starbucks, they could get single-swipe access to the coffee chain's digital payment system. Now, instead of a large notification, iOS 8 puts a small logo in the bottom left corner that can be swiped upwards to access certain features.
Figure A shows how the Starbucks and Apple Store apps can be accessed right from the lock screen when users are in those establishments.
Figure A

Figure A

Apps can be accessed from the lock screen.

2. Responding to a notification in iOS 8

In iOS 8, when users receive a notification that could require some action, such as a text message or a comment on Facebook, users can respond directly from the notification without leaving the app they were in.
Figure B shows how the user can respond to a text message with Siri or via a typed message. In the WWDC 2014 keynote, Apple executives showed how Facebook could add a "Like" button to a notification.
Figure B

Figure B

Users can respond to a text message with Siri or via a typed message.

3. Battery Usage indicator in iOS 8

Keeping an eye on battery status is a fact of life for mobile device owners. In the past, it would sometimes be difficult to determine when an app was misbehaving and taking more battery life than it should. Now, with iOS 8, users can see what apps are using the most power (Figure C) and make adjustments accordingly.

4. Family Share in iOS 8

A useful new feature for families is Apple's Family Share (Figure D). With it, families can share music, movie, book, and app purchases across as many as six individual accounts with one credit card. Family Share even allows children to request permission to purchase apps, with a notification sent to parents to approve or deny.
Figure D

5. Audio messages in iOS 8

Users can now send brief audio messages within iMessage, "borrowing" a feature from other popular chat programs like WhatsApp. Users can press and hold the microphone button to record a message (Figure E), then swipe up to send it. The recordings will automatically delete themselves to avoid filling up a device with unneeded messages, though users can manually decide which messages to keep.
Figure E

You can send brief audio messages in iOS 8.

6. Apple's new Health app in iOS 8

Apple's new Health app was the topic of a lot of discussion ahead of the keynote. In the end, Apple didn't seem to spend much time on the app, but it certainly holds a lot of potential.
At the moment, the Health app acts as a repository for health data sent by other apps, including calories burned, hours of sleep, heart rate, blood pressure, weight, and more (Figure F). It acts as a unifying force for health-related data that was previously spread across a multitude of different apps.
Many analysts expect the app's functionality to be expanded with the release of the rumored iWatch this fall.

7. Siri improvements in iOS 8

Apple has made improvements to Siri as well. She can now listen to songs and tell you what's playing via new integration with Shazam (Figure G), and when the phone or iPad is plugged into a power source (say, in the car), you can say "Hey, Siri" and then begin dictating normally.
This is truly hands-free, even if it also was "borrowed" from Android.

India's Best Fake Hacker - Ankit Fadia , Claims without Proofs

Undefined Soul 6:16 PM 2 Comments
There are only few people in the hacking field who have never heard about Ankit Fadia ,then so called self declared  “India’s Best Ethical Hacker” ,There are lot of arguments and facts against him , Some people says  he is not a HACKER he is just a good businessman who knows how to make fool of the peoples . The thing that made him so much famous is only Media coverage nothing else. Now lets talk about Fadia's  claims and some facts about him.


At the age of 14 Ankit Fadia  started a website called “HackingTruths”, which he claims was judged as the “second best hacking site in the world by the FBI”. I don’t know when did FBI started rating hacking sites? it is because nothing such like this happened. It a world know truth FBI never ranks any website

Fadia  also claims that when he was 14, he trashed the front page of an Indian magazine's website. He then sent an e-mail to the editor confessing to the hack, suggesting counter measures. let me ask a question has he ever submitted any exploit? did he ever created tools for hacking ? the answer is N0, a big NO .

He is also claims to be involved in decrypting a message from an Al Qaeda operative. But when there is not a single published work of Ankit Fadia involvement about  cryptography or cryptanalysis then how the how he can decrypt any message and that too from AL QAEDA and Most intelligence agencies like NSA have expert cryptanalyst with PhD’s and super fast clusters to get their job done. They wont require a 16 year old.

He is also been reported to be working with CIA and FBI . yeah you heard it right CIA and FBI .I think Americans have shortage of hackers in their own country that’s why they are hiring such noobs.

"Fadia had claimed that his alert to a U.S. spy agency had prevented an attack by Pakistani hackers. However, he never divulged the name of the agency, citing security reasons."

In December 2009 Fadia’s business site, hackingmobilephones.com was hacked by a spammer promoting pharmaceutical products for erectile dysfunction. Fadia again "claimed it had happened because of a fault in the server that hosts his site. "The problem lies in the server and all the sites hosted by it have been infected." However all web servers give their customers an option to build their own security installing their own (customer’s) software and patches when they opt for private servers. Might be MR FADIA Did not have any excuse better then this one .

Recently in his commercial seminar he called Indian hacking groups as Indian cyber criminals.the angry hackers crew hacked and defaced his site. So now the question is the so called “INDIA’S BEST HACKER” cant he secure his site from other hackers?

Now lets talk about his courses and books :–

At 15, his book on Ethical Hacking made him the youngest author to be published by Macmillan India. he claims that his books are being “used as text books in computer security courses across South-East Asia”
lol what a joke.If you will ever read his books you will find that he has copied each and every single page from other best selling hacking books .and the harshest part of all he don’t even gives credits to the authors and other hackers , he simply steals their work.

His course ANKIT FADIA Certified Ethical Hacker (AFCEH) powered by reliance claims to make you an security expert in just “3 bloody months” . WOW what an opportunity for a newbie to become a hacker .
but the thing is the certificate given by him are not valid . Read this


The thing is no one can be a hacker or a good security expert in just 3 months. It takes a lot of time or I say it takes many years to become a HACKER.

In one of his seminars he said that Linux is CRAP and advised them to use windows for hacking purpose rather then Linux.

I haven’t seen any hacker saying Linux a crap and advising to use windows . and neither will a hacker say these words because he knows Linux the the mother of all hackers. there is no hacking without Linux possible in today’s world except social engineering .

1.) According to Wendy McAuliffe at ZDNet UK, Fadia's Hacking Truths website was judged "second best hacking site" by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, though no ranked list of "hacking sites" has been published by the FBI

2.) In 2000, Chennai Online reported that Fadia's consulting clients included several of the largest technology and financial services companies in the world. No other source corroborates that report; were it true, Fadia's client list would exceed that of many of the largest independent security consultancies. The same article reported Fadia's involvement in decrypting a message from an Al Qaeda operative; no other source corroborates that claim, nor does any of Fadia's published work involve cryptography or cryptanalysis.

3.) In April 2000, Rediff.com published an interview with Ankit Fadia. Anti-India Crew (AIC), a Pakistani hacker group noted for defacing Indian Government websites, rubbished the claims that Fadia had made in the interview. Fadia had claimed that his alert to a U.S. spy agency had prevented an attack by Pakistani hackers. However, he never divulged the name of the agency, citing security reasons. AIC and another Pakistani hacker group WFD defaced an Indian Government site, epfindia.gov.in, and "dedicated" it to Fadia in mock deference to his capabilities to hack or prevent hacking. AIC also said that it would be defacing the website of the Central Board of Excise and Customs (CBEC), www.cbec.gov.in, within two days and challenged Fadia to prevent the attack by patching the vulnerable website. AIC maintained that Fadia should stop calling himself a hacker, if it succeeded in hacking the CBEC website. AIC kept its promise and defaced the CBEC website after two days. At another defaced website (bhelhyd.co.in), AIC termed the claims of Indian media about Ankit Fadia as "Bullshit".

4.) He has been accused of copying materials from internet and paraphrasing into his own books and lectures. Recently, his claims have been proved false and he has been cited as fake person boastering in his own imaginations of fancy hacking for gaining cheap publicity.

5.) Fadia's earlier site, Ankitfadia.com, was attacked in 2003, by a cracker who self-identified as SkriptKiddie. Fadia explained that he was using a private web server for hosting his website and they were responsible for the lack of security. However, all web servers give their customers an option to build their own security installing their own (customer's) software and patches when they opt for private servers.

In December 2009 Fadia's business site, hackingmobilephones.com was hacked by a spammer promoting pharmaceutical products for erectile dysfunction. Fadia again "claimed it had happened because of a fault in the server that hosts his site." "The problem lies in the server and all the sites hosted by it have been infected.

Dussehra is predominantly a northern Indian festival. Delhi and Varanasi are popular places to witness the celebrations.

Elsewhere in India, Dussehra festivities take place in the Kullu Valley of Himachal Pradesh, Mysore in Karnataka, and Kota in Rajasthan. Mysore Dussehra celebrations are particularly famous.

In West Bengal, Navaratri and Dussehra are celebrated as Durga Puja.

How is Dussehra Celebrated:

In northern India, plays and dance performances known as Ramaleela, depicting the life of Rama, commonly take place in the lead up to Dussehra day. These shows are especially big in Varanasi.
 Then on Dussehra, huge effigies of the demon Ravana are burned all over India.


In Mysore, as well as cultural performances and fairs, the highlight of the 10 day Dussehra celebration is grand parade of decorated elephants and guards mounted on horse back to escort the goddess through the city.
In Kullu, goddess deities are carried around on colorful chariots, and there is much dancing and revelry.

What Rituals are Perfrormed During Dussehra:
Dussehra is considered to be an auspicious time to worship tools used to earn an income. Nowadays, this includes laptops and cars! According to the legend in the epic Mahabharata, Arjuna hid his weapons in a tree and when he returned a year later, on the day of Dussehra, he safely retrieved them. He then worshiped the weapons, along with the tree.

CWG Official Website Attacked by Pakistani & China Hackers

Undefined Soul 8:31 PM Add Comment


CWG Official Website Attacked by Pakistani & China Hackers

The audience at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium might have given a rousing welcome to the Pakistani contingent during the opening ceremony,but state-supported hackers in Pakistan and China were hard at work trying to deface official sites and disrupt data networks.

Experts from the department of information and technology had to keep a sharp vigil to prevent the hackers from either crashing sites or putting up demeaning messages intending to show India in poor light.The effort to foil the hackers intent on embarrassing India was no less intensive than on-ground security.

The attacks were traced to servers in Pakistan and China and while the hackers were purported to be individuals or non-state actors,the deniability for their sponsors was thin.The exercise is suspected to have been monitored by official agencies in both countries with the searchnet worm being the preferred weapon of attack.The attacks launched from China were the handiwork of students studying in technical institutes who are encouraged to take a go at targets identified by official agencies.Some of these universities are in close proximity to military establishments specializing in technical and IT-based offensive systems.

There were hundreds of attacks on the CWGs official website which were intended to put up insulting messages while the more serious attempts were aimed at data management systems.

Within a couple of hours of the opening ceremony of the mega event on October 3,hackers mostly traced to servers in China attacked the Games website,www.cwgdelhi 2010.org,forcing cyber security agencies to pay more attention to cyber security.

Though the cyber attackers have been traced to Pakistan as well,most of the hackers servers were found to be located in China, said a top government official.

Final Verdict in the Ayodhya case

Final Verdict in the Ayodhya case

Undefined Soul 6:15 PM Add Comment
The Allahabad High Court's verdict in the Ayodhya case has the following main points:


1. The Allahabad High Court has ruled that the disputed site in Ayodhya is indeed the birth place of Lord Rama. It has given the legal rationale for this in the judgment.


2. The Allahabad High Court has said in its Ayodhya judgment that the disputed building (that was razed in 1992 by kar sevaks) was not a mosque, as its construction violated the tenets of Islam.
 


3. The Allahabad High Court has ruled in its Ayodhya verdict that the disputed building (mosque) was built after demolishing a Hindu temple that existed there.


4. The Allahabad High Court's Ayodhya judgment also says that idols were placed in the middle dome of the disputed structure (the Babri Masjid) in the intervening night of 22nd and 23rd December 1949.


5. Finally, the Allahabad High Court has said that the property referred to in the suit is the site of the janmabhumi of Sri Ramachandraji, and that Hindus in general had the right to worship there. It has however decided to split the site into 3 parts, and give the site with the idols (i. e. where the Babri Masjid stood) to the Hindus, the Sita Rasoi site to the Nirmohi Akhara, and the rest of the place to the Sunni Wakf Board.

However, the option to move the case to Supreme Court is still opened.
