How To Create A Server With Really Good Encryption On My Home Computer

Match common encryption algorithms and methods with the scenarios representing real-world business applications and requirements.?

Hello All,

I want to thank you in advance, I was wondering if someone can help me with my fundamentals of information systems security questions.

Question 10 pts

Shovels and Shingles is a small construction company consisting of 12 computers that have Internet access. The company's biggest concern is that a wily competitor will send e-mail messages pretending to be from Shovels and Shingles in order to get confidential information. Select an encryption solution (SSL, Digital Signature, or AES) that best prevents a competitor from receiving confidential information and justify the recommendation.

Question 10 pts

Top Ads is a small advertising company consisting of 12 computers that have Internet access. All employees communicate using smartphones. Top Ads' primary concern is protecting the data on the smartphones. Select an encryption solution (SSL, Digital Signature, or AES) that best protects the smartphones and justify the recommendation.

Question 10 pts

Backordered Parts is a defense contractor that builds communications parts for the military. The employees use mostly Web-based applications for parts design and information sharing. Due to the sensitive nature of the business, Backordered Parts would like to implement a solution that secures all browser connections to the Web servers. Select an encryption solution (SSL, Digital Signature, or AES) that best meets the company's needs and justify the recommendation.

How do I connect to my home router from a different network?

1. Install a VNC (Virtual Network Computing) app on your home computer, and install a portable VNC on a flash drive. TightVNC will work, but only the password exchange is encrypted so you'll also want to

2. Install SSH ( Secure Shell) on your home computer, and install a portable SSH on the flash drive. VNC will live inside SSH, which will keep everything secret.

3. Set your router to forward the ports used by SSH and VNC.

4. Sign up for a (free) dynamic DNS service so that you can find your network by URL instead of writing down the IP address every morning before you leave. Download and install an updater so that the IP address stays attached to the URL.

Plug the flash drive into one computer, start SSH, connect to your home PC, start VNC, Done.

How to unencrypt a connection to a server, on a single website?

Encryption Usually Takes Place in the Layer SSL part of Application Layer. It is Automated in Web Browser...

Try to Have Your Own Client Program in place of Browser and Check If it Works...

What drive ecryption is the best?

I was installing Truecrypt om my machines and jjust topday I fouind out that TrueCrypt is getting discontinued because of security concerns. It coincided with the ending of support from Microsoft for Windwos XP, which mades me thing again. ANyways, I need a new Drive encryption

Drive Encryption Software I am NOT interested in because of backdoors for government with hidden keys. To make it short:
I do not want Norton encrypt, Bitlocker, PGP and any software coming from the USA as they are bugged 'naturally'.

Appreciate constructive information.

Can I make a website or an app which uses my home PC as a server, and the user can view movies which I uploaded to that webpage with a yearly subscription?

Yes you can and you need these 5 things1.Reliable Storage - Good performance and consistent storage that provide all time availablity of videos. Use SSD or Cloud hosting Storgaes. You will also need media streaming support for web hosts.2.Good Network Connectivity- Choose a Correct Content Delivery Network (CDN)3.High bandwidth- Have a high bandwidth that can provide the user to watch videos in 1mbps or more.1mbps or more is for single individual but if there are 100 then 1 Mbps for each.4.Less Jitter- The problems such as video frame drops, desynced audio with video, stuck etc. should be less and can't be completely abolished.5.Security- Secured from hackers the videos and users payment details. Use SSL Encryption one of the best payment encryption used. Watermark your videos so the videos will have your identity. Restriction to 3rd party users or sources.

How can I connect to my home network from a different location (PC)?

Hope you mean to connect to home network to access collection of devices in your home LAN and not just the internet connection at home?This can be achieved by the very same internet connection that you normally use to browse - set up a VPN on your internet cum Wi-Fi router (most of the devices have it) and publish it / configure access on your mobile or remote PC…whenever you dial into this VPN you will get a local IP of your home LAN and can access your devices like printers, NEST automation or even your file server.Tip: Having a static IP makes this very easy but it's not mandatory if you don't want to publish and adjust configure for a few machines

Is using a VPN safe? Is it possible that my personal information can be caught by some technical methods during the time I am using a VPN? If it can be done, how does it work?

All the answers other 32 answers you have read here are unfortunately wrong, wrong, wrong.VPN Services hide your IP address. Period. You will have your traffic encrypted to the service but it is unencrypted from the service to the end-point.When you interact with a website, the VPN service hands traffic back to you. If you click on the wrong thing, you can do irreparable damage to your device. That is true regardless of the VPN service. It is true even if that service has some filtering built into it. Key loggers, Bots, trojans, and all means of nasty things can still cause great harm. And then anything I do while in the VPN can be learned.Additionally, VPN services are, by default, a “man in the middle.” When we create intra-company VPNs, there is no man in the middle. We create a point to point or a company client to company server VPN. When you use a service, you do not know who it is in the middle. It might be good today, but compromised tomorrow. Good luck with that.There is so much you need to disable in your browser to make it truly safe, that most web pages will not display correctly when you lock things down, and lock them down you must, if you really want to be totally safe, even when using a VPN.The Internet is not a safe place. VPNs were not designed to make it safe. There are good and sound reasons for using VPNs. But ‘safety’ is not one of them.A virtual private network essentially is intended to say, you and I are friends who need to share stuff and not let anyone in the middle see what we are sharing. If the other end is evil, then you are most assuredly not safe. If the man in the middle gets corrupted or was always corrupt, or insecure, you are not safe. If you or the other side has been compromised by bad code, you are not safe.
