As many computers, we can also reboot Android phones in safe mode. The latest Android- Jelly Bean version provides an option to reboot in safe mode, if something goes wrong.
To reboot your android in safe mode, follow the below given instructions.
*Long press the power button
*Long press on the power off option.
Android phone will show a confirmation message about rebooting it in safe mode, if we reboot android phone in safe mode then all the 3rd party application will be disabled. These applications can again be enabled when we reboot our phone normally. 
This is a great Android utility in case when, one of your 3rd party application is causing trouble for you and you want to hunt it.

4) Unlock android phones by face detection:
In the jelly bean version, Android provides a way by which android phone can be unlock using face detection, to make this feature more secure, Jelly Bean version added another layer of protection in which Android phone can be unlocked only when the face is matched as well as we have to blink eyes in order to unlock phone. 
Blinking eyes tells the android security system that person is live and its not an illegal attempt of unlocking using a still image.
To activate this: Go to Settings > Security > Screen lock > Face unlock.

5) Get detailed information about phone status:
We can get the detailed statistics like phone information, battery information,usage statistics and WiFi information by just dialing *#*#4636#*#* This is a handy USSD to get the details about battery usage, DNS check, Ping, Application time usage time and so on.

6) Move android apps to SD card:
Its good idea to install android apps in SD card, but what if you installed apps on your phone memory. Dont worry! Android phones provide a way by which we can move our apps to SD card. To move apps to SD card, follow these steps:Go to settings > Application settings > Manage application > Select the application, You will see the option Move to SD card.

7) Hard Reset and Factory reset your android phone:
Android phone can be formatted in two ways:
a) Factory reset: 
In factory reset, your phone is being formatted to factory level. Means all the settings will go by default and all the internal data will be deleted. 
To factory reset a phone dial *#*#7780#*#*.
b) Hard reset: 
To hard reset a phone dial *2767*3855#, this will delete all the data (including internal and External SD data) as well as settings of android phone. 
Dont try this code for testing purpose, until you are not sure. 
It will not ask for any confirmation.

SECURITY TIPS AND COUNTERMEASURES AGAINST MOST OF THE HACKING TECHNIQUES [DIGI]

Wednesday, April 09, 2014 - 0 Comments

SECURITY TIPS AND COUNTERMEASURES AGAINST MOST OF THE HACKING TECHNIQUES 











Hello friends, Well as you all know that this page is for Ethical hacking purpose too and most of our viewers are also good CEH 



But If any one hurts someone by hacking them for their enjoyment and to show their power , then it totally **WRONG**

HACKERS ALWAYS KEEP AN EYE ON YOU (VICTIM)
Well My this post is for those who are not aware of hacking and sometime get trapped in hacking..,

Today I will give some Security Tips against various hacking techniques by which you can protect your self from bad -black hats....





Password Hacking
  • Guessing the password 
To avoid password guessing attack do not keep your password such as your date of
birth, your fathers name etc.

  • Guessing the Secret answer 
Don’t keep your secret answer too simple. 
For example if your secret question is
“What's your Mother's birth place?” Now if the has some information about you
he can easily guess it. I recommend you keep the your secret answer as complicated
as possible.


  • Social Engineering 
Social Engineering attacks are really difficult to avoid, but however there are several
methods to avoid it.
1. Never give your password or your personal information to any company
representative unless and until your are sure about his/her identity.

2. Employees from companies from like Google , youtube, Hotmail etc will never ask
for your password.

3. Never assume that Phone call which appears to come from an organization is
original

4. If you are unsure that Email is original verify it by contacting the company.


  • Phishing 
Almost 80% of email accounts are hacked by this method the below steps
will help you to successfully avoid being victim of Phishing attack.

1. If you are an Internet explorer use I recommend you to use a Phishing filter it will
alert you every time you come across a Fake login page or Phisher site.

2. If you are a firefox user I recommend you using a firefox addon Secure login
What secure login does is it automatically skips the fake pages and hence securing
you from all kinds of Phishing Attacks.

3. Remember If on a secure page, look for “https” at the beginning of the URL and
the padlock icon in the browser.

4. Sites like paypal, Alertpay, Money Bookers will always call you with name instead
of “Dear Paypal user”, “Dear Valued customer” or other names like that.
Here are a few phrases to look for if you think an e-mail message is a phishing scam
1. Verify or update your account.
2. You have won a lottery.
3. If you don’t respond or update your information your account will be
closed in 24 hours.

  • Link Manipulation
To avoid being a victim of a Link manipulation attack always check the url of the
page before logging.

For example if you are logging into a Facebook account firstly check the url of the
phisher site may look like www.facebok.com or www.facebuk.com or something
like that. 
Alternatively you can use Phishing filter or Secure logging to protect your
self from a Link manipulation attack.


  • Desktop Phishing
To protect your self from being a victim of Desktop Phishing I recommend you using
the a program called Macros

As you know that In desktop Phishing the hackers
replace your Windows/System32/drivers/etc/hosts

What Macros does is it protects your host files, which prevents the desktop
phishing attack.



  • Tab Nabbing

The easiest way to avoid a tabnabbing attack is using firefox or chrome secure login and 

Phishing filter.


  • Keylogging
Keylogging is a easy to avoid if you have a good antivirus program installed.
However some skilled hackers use some methods like Crypting, Hexing,
Filepumping etc to make it hard for antivirus programs to detect it. 

So Antivirus alone 
wont protect you from keylogging you need a good antispyware program such as 
Spyware cease or Noadware. You can also use some anti logging programs such as 

For Firefox users I recommend you using Keyscrambler.
Keyscrambler is a unique antilogging program which scrambles your keystrokes so
the attacker will get the wrong keystrokes.


Password Cracking

  • Brute force and Rainbow tables

Brute force attacks and Rainbow tables attacks can be avoided by keeping a very long
and strong password. A strong password contains both lower case and upper case
alphabets also numbers and special characters. 
However there is a website
www.strongpasswordgenerator.com which automatically generates a strong
password for you.


  • Dictionary Attacks

In order to avoid a Dictionary attacks avoid keeping passwords which are already
present in dictionary such as immortal, cash, book etc.


Windows Hacking
  • Netbios Hacking 
To keep your computer safe from Netbios attacks make sure that File and Printer
sharing is disabled. In windows vista and latest versions the File and Printer sharing is disabled by
default, but in windows xp you need to disable it manually.

Follow the below steps to protect your computer from Netbios attacks:
1. Goto Start → Control panel → Network Connections

2. Double Click on the active connection

3. Click on Properties

4. Uncheck the “File and Printer sharing sharing for Microsoft
Networks” option.


Wireless(Wi-Fi) Hacking

  • ARP Poisoning Attack
Arpon (Arp Handler Inspection) is a portable handler daemon which protects that
makes ARP secure to avoid ARP Poisoning attacks. 

You also need to you a strong 
firewall such as zonealaram and commodo I personally recommend you using 
commodo firewall because it works best with ARP attacks by default ARP protection 
is disabled in commodo firewall you need to enable it, to enable it:-


Click on Firewall at 
the top bar and then 
Click Advanced button at the left pane. 



Go to Attack Detection Settings and 

check “Protect the ARP Cache”




  • Packet Sniffing
To prevent packet sniffing attack make sure that the sites important to you use SSL
Encryption. If SSL encryption is enabled the url will begin with https:// instead of
http://.


Website Hacking

  • SQL Injection
SQL Injection occurs when your web form accept special characters. 
The best way to 
avoid SQL Injection attack is to disallow spaces and special characters.


  • Cross Site Scripting
A Cross Site scripting attack can be prevented by following the steps below:-

1. Encode output based on input parameters.

2. Filter input parameters for special characters.

3. Filter output based on input parameters for special characters.



  • Remote File Inclusion
A Remote File Inclusion attack can be avoided by disabling register_globals and
allow_url_open in your sever php.ini file.



  • Local File Inclusion
Local File Inclusion attacks can be avoided by good coding practices and also by
disallowing any scripts to be uploaded on your server.



  • DDOS Attacks
Its truly very difficult to avoid a DDOS attacks web giants like Google , Yahoo and
Twitter have also been the victim of this attack. 
I suggest you to look for some 

services which could help you fight with this attack.


Malware and Rats
The easiest way to avoid getting infected with Malware you need to install a good
Antivirus and a good firewou all. 
For PC's with low configuration I recommend you 
using Avira or AVG antivirus and for computers with high configuration I 
recommend you using Avast , Norton, kaspersky or Mcafee Antivirus.

7 COOL and USEFUL THINGS YOU CAN DO WITH YOUR PENDRIVE

Monday, April 07, 2014 - 0 Comments

7 COOL AND USEFUL THINGS YOU CAN DO WITH YOUR "PENDRIVE"


Hello Friends , Lets Start....

Well Transporting your data is probably the most common use for a USB flash drive. 
But there's a world of other things you can do with these handy pocket-size drives.
Here are 7 ways you can use that USB flash drive to do more than simply just move data.



  • 1: Run portable applications

In addition to storing your data, you can run portable applications from a USB flash drive. For example, OpenOffice, which is a complete office suite that includes a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation tool, drawing package, and database, is available as a portable application.

Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird are also available as portable applications. When you combine the office suite with the ability to surf the Web and check email, you'll be able to take your most vital computing applications with you wherever you go -- right in your pocket.

If that's not enough, you can choose other applications to install on your USB flash drive from Here . You can even install an entire prepackaged suite of applications that includes such things as an audio player, games, an antivirus utility, and a handy menu system.


  • 2: Boot an operating system

If you want to do more than just run your own applications, you might want to consider booting an entire operating system from your USB flash drive. 

You can boot either Windows or Linux from a USB flash drive; 

However, the process is not an exact science and you may be in for a technical adventure.


Fortunately, there are some guides you can follow. 
To learn how to , search this article on Google.com or Techgyd.com
Creating a bootable USB flash drive for Windows XP

Puppy Linux teaches an old dog new tricks.


  • 3: Connect to a wireless network

If you have a wireless network, you can use the Wireless Network Setup Wizard in Windows XP or the Windows Connect Now (WCN) feature built into Vista to save wireless network configuration information to a USB flash drive. 

You can then use your drive to quickly and easily connect another computer or a WCN-compatible device, such as a router or printer, to your wireless network. To learn more about using the Wireless Network Setup Wizard, see the Help And Support Center, which is accessible from Windows XP's Start menu. 

To learn more about using the Windows Connect Now feature, see Windows Help And Support, which is accessible from Windows Vista's Start menu.



  • 4: Create a password reset disk


A password reset disk can really come in handy if you forget the password to your user account on a Windows system that is not a part of a domain. 

If you find yourself in that situation, you can use the password reset disk to reset your password and quickly get back into your user account. 
In Windows Vista, you can use USB flash drive rather than a floppy disk as a password reset disk. For details on how to do so, see the article on techgyd.com 
for "Create a Vista password reset disk using a USB flash drive."


  • 5: Boost Performance

If you're running Windows Vista or Windows 7 or even Windows 8 , 8.1 ,then you can use a USB flash drive to speed up your system with the ReadyBoost technology. 

ReadyBoost can use the storage space on a USB Flash drive as an additional memory cache to aid the memory cache on your hard disk. 

And because flash memory is more responsive than a hard disk, with its physical moving parts, the memory cache provided by ReadyBoost can significantly improve system responsiveness.

Using ReadyBoost is easy. You just insert your USB flash drive into your Vista system and follow the onscreen prompts to configure and use ReadyBoost.


  • 6: Manage it


If all you really want to do with your USB flash drive is transport data, and you're running Windows XP, you can do so more efficiently with the Microsoft USB Flash Drive Manager.

Once you have installed this manager, you can easily copy files to and from your drive, back up and restore the entire flash drive to and from your hard disk, change the drive label, and even create an autorun.inf file to launch Drive Manager automatically when you plug in the drive. 
To learn more about and download the USB Flash Drive Manager visit the Microsoft TechNet Magazine site.


  • 7: Use it as an MP3 player


Would you like to be listening to music when you're using a computer at the office, but you don't have an MP3 player? 

If so, then you can use a USB flash drive as an MP3 player along with Windows Media Player and a set of headphones. 
Just copy your MP3 files to your USB flash drive, plug it into your computer, and direct Windows Media Player to build a library of the songs on your drive. 

You can use all of Windows Media Player's playback features, such as playlists and favorites, to easily customize your music listening experience. And best of all, you won't have to worry about running low on battery power.
