Four Challenges to be Considered When Developing IoT Devices

IoT security has always been a controversial issue. The first challenge to be considered is that security and privacy of IoT are fundamentally different from network security that we've known. If you need to develop a smart home device connected to your mobile, such as an online toaster, you must protect data that gets stored on the devices in any form. Although it is costly to embed a security protection component on every IoT device, it is still important to encrypt data on these devices. You must also properly plan how to process all collected data. You must first evaluate the amount of processed and collected data to control the size of your cloud storage and meet your platform requirements.

Protect Your Website: How to Avoid SMS Traffic Flooding Attacks

For many websites, online users must provide their mobile phone number upon registration in order to validate their identity. Normally, users will click a button during the registration process to send a SMS message and a SMS message is sent to verify the user’s mobile phone number. However, if there are no defense policies protecting the mobile data security, attackers can leverage programs to send high frequency requests to the SMS interface.

Bringing IoT to the Cloud – Fog Computing and Cloudlets

The rapid growth of mobile technology also means that global mobile data is growing dramatically. According to Cisco's mobile data forecast report in 2016, global mobile data would increase by 18 times between 2016 and 2021 and could exceed 49 Exabytes by 2021. As the large data volume and new applications raised rigid constraints on the service quality, problems within the traditional cloud computing models became more evident. Despite various security mechanisms deployed on the cloud, the sheer scale of the cloud gives rise to a number of security and privacy issues. That’s why engineers felt the need for multi-hop network transmission between users and the cloud computing center. A deeper network transmission made it harder to ensure data integrity and privacy.

Dynamic DNS using Alibaba Cloud DNS API

For the most part, static IPs work well for accessing the Internet. The problem arises when we want to design a mobile (not just cell phones) network. In this tutorial, we hope to set up a similar network for home devices that we want to access from the outside. For example, you may have a smart home or security device set up and you need to access it while being away from home.

Protecting Websites through Semantics-Based Malware Detection

Malware detection is a fundamental feature of web security and serves as the first line of defense for most websites. For the past decade, malware detection using rule-based detection engines have dominated the market. However, this approach is vulnerable to modern web attack techniques, such as virus obfuscation. To cope with these attacks, semantics-based malware detection engines have become increasingly popular over the past two years. Malware detection is a fundamental feature of web security and serves as the first line of defense for most websites. For the past decade, malware detection using rule-based detection engines have dominated the market. Up until now, most web application firewalls are designed based on rules to detect attacks. In this design, a detection engine runs each session through a series of security tests by comparing against a number of rules. Requests that match the rules are denied.

Web Application Firewall Cloud Options: Alibaba Cloud WAF & AWS WAF

A web application or a REST API hosted in a cloud is a common scenario for most developers. However, not every application has the same level of security. Adding a Web Application Firewall (WAF) to your web application is a helpful way to improve your security.

How Secure Your Linux Server Using Snort NIDS

Snort is a free, open source and one of the most commonly used signature-based network intrusion detection system (NIDS) that monitors the package data sent and received through a specific network interface. Snort performs protocol analysis, content searching and matching, real-time traffic analysis and packet logging on Internet Protocol (IP) networks. You can determine the most recent strikes, malware infections, compromised systems, and community policy violations using Snort.

Installing Matomo (Piwik) for Web and Mobile Data Analytics on Alibaba Cloud ECS

Matomo is an open-source and free web and mobile analytics platform, formerly known as Piwik. It is a self-hosted and open-source alternative to the Google Analytics, providing nearly similar features. Being a self-hosted application, it provides full ownership of the analytical data to the users. Securing your Matomo instance with the SSL certificates is not mandatory, but a much-recommended step. Since Matomo gathers the data for different websites from a client's computer using JavaScript. The need to encrypt the data being exchanged is very important.

Implementing OSS Multipart Download for Mobile Devices

When a user watches a video using a video app on his/her mobile phone, the video app pre-fetches the content for a seamless user experience. Normally, the app will switch the network from mobile data to Wi-Fi during the download to help users reduce data consumption. When the download resumes, unfinished parts can be downloaded separately from the already downloaded parts, which saves time and traffic. In this article, we will discuss the implementation of this function on mobile terminals using the Alibaba Cloud Object Storage Service (OSS) multipart download feature.
