			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img />Whether you are running a large organization or small size business, a  website is very important equipment to make the presence of your  business across the world. And it’s depends on the selected web hosting provider.  So, a hosting service should be chosen carefully with much  contemplation. Ideally, you should choose the one that suits your  business rather than which costs lesser.</p>
<p>Mainly, there five important types of hosting services- dedicated  shared, colocation, virtual, managed and cloud hosting service are  available in the market. Here we are discussing some basic features of  these services.</p>
<p><strong>Dedicated Hosting Service:</strong> In Dedicated web hosting service, one  server hosts your website and  also offers full control. You can host  unlimited number of domains. Dedicated web hosting provides unlimited  bandwidth hosting and has lowest latency among the types of web hosting  services offered. It is the most reliable, secure and comprehensive  server hosting solution available. The dedicated hosting service is  backed up by timely support on 24*7*365 basis and personal account  manager.</p>
<p><strong>Shared Web Hosting Service: </strong>In this service, your website shares  space with other users website. The uploading speed of your website can  get little bit slower as other websites would be sharing the space and  potential of the server. If you are sharing space with websites which  demand huge bandwidth or memory, the performance and traffic of your  website is marred. This is the cheapest form of shared web hosting  service available. Most of the web-blogs and small website are hosted on  shared basis. Though, nowadays most of the service providers are  offering excellent support by the means of antivirus, dedicated team for  technical support and control panel.</p>
<p><strong>Virtual Web Hosting Service:</strong> Virtual web hosting service fills the  prevalent space between shared and dedicated web hosting. It has  features of both shared services but at minimum price. Since, VPS server  runs its own OS and hardware, users have super access and control over  website and environment.</p>
<p><strong>Managed Web Hosting Service:</strong> Managed Website Hosting  is more or less similar to a dedicated hosting service but without  having any access to program files. Server management is done by the  concerned hosting service provider but you have to manage files and core  information, which can be troublesome.</p>
<p><strong>Co-location Hosting:</strong> In this type of hosting service, your website is  hosted on a custom made server. You can include RAM, disk space, CPU  efficiency as per your liking and business need. You can also request  assistance from the service provider or choose to manage the server on  your own. For businesses struggling with challenges of uprising costs,  limited resources, and turnaround time’s colocation is the best option.</p>
<p><strong>Cloud Hosting:</strong> As a user- you host your website, hardware or software  inside a massive computing invirnment known as cloud. Used as  pay-as-you-go service, you just need to tap the cloud if you want to  modify the resources you are using at a moment. A cloud hosting utilizes  multi-connected servers which reduces the downtimes considerably. A  cloud based hosting is cost efficient and completely scalable.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Go to a popular search engine like Google, and search for a keyword  relevant to your business and check whether you can find your company in  the first page of the search results.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Whether you call them hackers, <span>crackers</span> or cyber criminals doesn\&#8217;t matter. What does matter is whatever you call them &#8211; they\&#8217;re looking for a way into your network!</p>
<p>You may not realize it but hackers are scanning <span>your Internet connection</span> looking for an opening.</p>
<p><strong>What will they do if they find one?</strong></p>
<p>They\&#8217;ll  launch an attack against that opening to see if they can exploit a  vulnerability that will allow them to remotely execute some commands  thereby giving them access to your network.</p>
<p>But it <span>all starts</span> with scanning your network.</p>
<p>Automated Tools Are a Wonderful Thing</p>
<p>Cyber  criminals don\&#8217;t scan each individual network on the Internet one by  one. They have automated tools that randomly scan every IP address on  the Internet.</p>
<p>Hackers aren\&#8217;t lazy people &#8211; just very efficient. And very intelligent.</p>
<p>The tools they use can be preloaded with a range of Internet addresses to scan. As this tool finds an <span>Internet address</span> with certain openings it produces a list of the address and the opening.</p>
<p>This  list is then fed into another tool that actively tries to exploit that  opening with various programs. If no exploit works, the hacker\&#8217;s program  moves on to <span>the next</span> potential victim.</p>
<p>When you see the scanning activity in your firewall logs, <span>you\&#8217;ll know</span> where you\&#8217;re being scanned from and what they\&#8217;re trying to target.  Armed with that data your security person should check to see if you\&#8217;re  running software that uses that port and if it has any newly discovered  openings.</p>
<p>If you are using software listening on a scanned port  and there is a patch available, you should have that patch applied  immediately &#8211; because the hackers may know something you don\&#8217;t. It\&#8217;s  been our experience that many businesses patch their Microsoft Windows  software but rarely do they check for patches for all the other software  used in the business.</p>
<p>As stated, you\&#8217;ll see this activity in your firewall logs &#8211; that is, if someone is actually reviewing your firewall logs.</p>
<p>Oh, my firewall has logs???</p>
<p>However,  when most business owners are asked about their firewall logs, the  typical response is usually something like, \&#8217;Oh, my firewall has logs?\&#8217;</p>
<p>Yes,  all firewalls produce log files. Most of them only show what\&#8217;s been  blocked, which is like showing pictures of all the thieves that are in  prison, while the bank down <span>the street</span> is being robbed.</p>
<p>Wouldn\&#8217;t  you want to see all traffic? This produces more work, but if your  firewall only logs activity it knows about, you\&#8217;re security is totally  dependent on the ability of your firewall and the way it\&#8217;s configured.</p>
<p>Many  firewall companies want to reduce their number of tech support calls.  Their business model revolves around having tech support available, but  in <span>the process</span> they\&#8217;re also seeking ways of reducing the number of times people call in.</p>
<p>This  isn\&#8217;t necessarily a bad thing, but when their products have fewer  features, thus fewer benefits as a result &#8211; that is a bad thing.</p>
<p>Most firewalls designed for the <span>small business</span> market lack features that most small businesses would benefit from.  Many of them have all the technical buzzwords like \&#8217;deep packet  inspection\&#8217;, \&#8217;spyware prevention\&#8217;, \&#8217;intrusion detection\&#8217; and many  others, however they don\&#8217;t go into the level of detail needed to be  effective.</p>
<p>First, many firewalls that are \&#8217;designed\&#8217; for small  businesses start with companies that have 100 &#8211; 250 users. These might  be considered small businesses by <span>the Bureau of Labor Statistics</span>, but for technology purposes companies of this size have their own IT staff (96% do).</p>
<p>Not  just one IT person, but an IT staff which means that someone is  probably responsible for security. If not, they\&#8217;ll have someone train  them in the proper setup, installation and monitoring of security  appliances.</p>
<p>The businesses we consider small have anywhere from 3  &#8211; 50 PCs. The companies at the higher end of this scale might have  someone dedicated to handling IT issues. But this person is usually so  inundated with PC support issues that they have little time \&#8217;left over\&#8217;  to effectively monitor firewall logs. Toward the lower end of this  scale, they usually have either an outside person or firm responsible or  they have an employee who \&#8217;is pretty good with computers\&#8217; who has other  responsibilities as well.</p>
<p>Rarely will these small businesses  have someone watching the firewall logs on a consistent basis. Someone  might look them over if there\&#8217;s an issue, but these logs rotate when  filled so the valuable information might be lost before it\&#8217;s ever  reviewed.</p>
<p>And that\&#8217;s a shame.</p>
<p>Without reviewing the logs you have no idea what or who is trying to get in with which or what.</p>
<p>An Example Log File<br />
Let\&#8217;s review some logs.</p>
<p>This  happens to be a log from a client. The columns are labeled accordingly.  This report has been cleaned up to make it easier to explain and  understand.</p>

<p><strong>What is this showing?</strong></p>
<p>Well  the first source IP (Internet) address is from Heilongjiang, a province  in China. The destination is our client (mangled to protect the  innocent) but the important data is the destination port. That  identifies what they\&#8217;re looking for.</p>
<p>Port 6588 can be a few  different things. They could be scanning for a Trojan that uses that  port. If their scan responds with the typical response of the remote  access Trojan, they know they\&#8217;ve found an infected system. Port 6588 can  also be a <span>proxy server</span> (which we  won\&#8217;t describe here) with a recent bug. This bug makes it easy for a  hacker to exploit thereby giving them remote access to the system  running the proxy server software.</p>
<p>The hackers system will tell them what service is listening on port 6588 so they know what tools to use to attack that port.</p>
<p>The  second line in our log file above is from Africa. Port 5900 is VNC  which is used by many, many system administrators to remotely connect to  a system to perform maintenance on it. This software has had a few  exploits and one just last year allowed the attacker to have remote  control of the system with VNC installed without having to crack any  passwords!</p>
<p>Line 3 has our friend from China back trying again.  Same port. They must be trying a few exploits against this port. Maybe  they know something that the general security community isn\&#8217;t aware of  yet.</p>
<p>On line 4 in our logs we see a new IP address in the source.  This one is from Korea but notice it\&#8217;s scanning port 2967. This happens  to be the port that Symantec\&#8217;s Anti-virus software listens on for new  updates. There is a known exploit which allows remote attackers to  execute arbitrary code via unknown attack vectors. When hackers find  this port they know exactly what exploit to try.</p>
<p>In other words,  the security software that is designed to protect systems is actually a  way in for hackers due to a software bug.</p>
<p>It could be that there  is a new \&#8217;hole\&#8217; in Symantec\&#8217;s software that hackers know about but  Symantec doesn\&#8217;t. The previous hole was patched so either the hackers  are looking for yet unpatched Symantec software or they know of a new hole and are looking for ways to infect them.</p>
<p>Without reviewing your logs you have no idea what is trying to get into your network.</p>
<p>Without  a properly configured firewall, this type of attack would surely get  through. This happens to be a firewall we configured so we know of ports  like this and we blocked outside access because this client does not  use Symantec products.</p>
<p>When talking security with a business  owner I always ask, \&#8217;When was the last time your network was scanned for  openings?\&#8217; They usually respond with, \&#8217;Never\&#8217;. To which I reply, \&#8217;Oh  you\&#8217;re wrong there. You\&#8217;ve been scanned, you just don\&#8217;t know by who!\&#8217;</p>
<p>Regular  scans of your network show you what the hackers are seeing of your  network. It\&#8217;s a simple process and should be performed at least once a  month. The results should be presented to you in a very readable,  understandable report.</p>
<p><strong>What to Do Next</strong></p>
<p>The first thing you should do is check your firewall to make sure it\&#8217;s logging all activity.</p>
<p>Then, your job is to start reviewing the logs either everyday or at a bare minimum, once a week.</p>
<p>Some  routers have the firewall \&#8217;built-in\&#8217;. I\&#8217;ve often found these are very  limited in their ability to protect. Even more limiting is their logging  functionality. Typically these devices will only show what\&#8217;s blocked.</p>
<p>Often  these router/firewalls have the option to have the logs emailed to  someone when they\&#8217;re filled up with entries. This is a nice option as  you can have them directed to someone who will (should) review them in  detail and notify you of any entries to be concerned with.</p>
<p>If  your firewall doesn\&#8217;t provide the level of detail described in this  article, you should seriously consider upgrading. You can keep your  existing router just turn off the firewall feature and buy a dedicated  firewall.</p>
<p>Then you\&#8217;ll know what the hackers know about your network.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span><strong>Summary: </strong></span>The  more I use Siri the more I discover that the personal assistant can do  for me with the iPhone 4S. Here are some simple areas that Siri is  making a contribution in my daily life.</p>
<div>
<p>Siri is the voice assistant introduced with the  iPhone 4S designed to make the user’s life easier. Through natural  commands spoken into the phone, Siri jumps to provide assistance or  information as required by the request. Siri isn’t able to do  everything, nor to understand some requests, but the technology is  imnpressive in how often it works as intended. I find myself using Siri  more and more the longer I use the iPhone 4S, and have run across some  useful things.</p>
<p><strong>Reminders</strong>. Siri works with the reminders in iOS5 to  make sure you don’t forget to do something. These are the first thing  that most iPhone 4S owners get familiar with, and the longer I use Siri  the more use I get out of reminders. I use it all the time for simple  things.</p>
<p>My wife asks me to check the dryer in an hour and I tell Siri to  “remind me to check the dryer in an hour”. Today I told Siri to “remind  me to turn the crock pot down at 3″ and my dinner was saved.</p>
<p>I am getting good at not just using Siri for timed actions like those  above, but for lots of other functions. I often tell Siri to “remind me  to note fact A” for anything I would normally jot down on a post-it  note. This is so easy to do I never forget simple things like this, now  that I have a personal assistant.</p>
<p><strong>Information requests.</strong> Like most folks I have become  dependent on web searches to get information I need. Siri has assumed a  big role in my quest for information, both searches I used to do on  Google, “ipad 2 cases”, and others that are less structured.</p>
<p>Sunday I wondered how my local NFL team’s schedule looked the rest of  the year so it was “Siri, show me the Houston Texan NFL schedule”. Siri  fired up a Google search that took me right to the remaining schedule I  needed.</p>
<p>These are very simple examples, but I am gradually coming to depend  on Siri to get me more specific information through Apple’s integration  with Wolfram Alpha. Preceding a request with “Wolfram” instead of Siri  tells Siri I want her to use that service to look for the information I  am requesting.</p>
<p>I am finding this useful in researching topics for writing projects,  as well as stuff I am simply wondering about. “Wolfram, who played in  the 1983 World Series” yields everything you want to know about that  event. Every day I am finding I end up thinking about something like  this and Siri gives me the exact information I am wondering. You can  also preface a question with Bing or Yahoo, if you want those services  to be used.</p>
<p><strong>Sending text messages</strong>. I don’t text a lot of people,  primarily just family members. In the beginning I would tell Siri to  “Send a text to Sheri” along with the line of text I wanted to send. As I  used Siri, I realized she could learn how those who I text frequently  are related to me. Now I simply state “Text my wife I will be running  late” and after once telling Siri which contact that meant all future  texts go straight to Sheri. I’ve done the same thing with my brother,  daughter 1, daughter 2, etc. Since getting the iPhone 4S I find I text  folks more often, due to how easy it is with Siri.</p>
<p>I also use Siri’s ability to send text messages to tweet  occasionally. I set up Twitter to allow tweeting via SMS, and trained  Siri what number that was. Now I tell Siri to “Send a text to Twitter”  followed by a short tweet. Nice and simple and totally hands-free. You  can also configure Google+ and Facebook to allow you to post updates  using this method.</p>
<p><strong>Making phone calls.</strong> I use Siri more and more to  initiate phone calls, especially in the car. I know I shouldn’t make  calls while driving but I admit I do that once in a while. It is so easy  to tell Siri to “call my brother at home” and have the call started  with no further action on my part.</p>
<p>The same method is good for getting contact information I need.  Asking Siri “what is Matt Miller’s address?” is a lot easier than  manually finding it in the Address Book. I can even ask Siri what  so-and-so’s birthday is and get the date.</p>
<p><strong>Setting alarms.</strong> When I need a more persistent  reminder than the Reminders app provides, I now use Siri to set alarms  to bug me. This is as simple as “Wake me tomorrow at 6:30″ or “set an  alarm for 6:30″. That gets the nagging iPhone alarm set to disturb me  appropriately.</p>
<p><strong>Scheduling</strong>. Siri is especially good at scheduling  meetings and events. “Meet with Bob today at 3″ gets the appropriate  event in my schedule. I really like the ability to ask Siri “What does  my schedule look like on Thursday?” and having it shown. This is where  the natural language of Siri really shines.</p>
<p>Siri is far from perfect, but as I use it more I am getting better at  figuring out what type of natural language commands work best. I can  state confidently that I am using the iPhone 4S and Siri more than I  have used any other smartphone, because I am finding more things Siri  can do for me all the time.</p></div>

It is different from the conventional heavy computer and  provides  you high data processing speed which is required for several  important  tasks that are to be performed on the computer.</p>
<p>The idea of  Android tablet PC was first given in 1971 by the Alan  Kay. After this  idea, the practical research work on this was started.  Android tablet PC  was produced in order to facilitate people. Now  android PC is being  used worldwide on a large scale. It took a lot of  time to produce a high  quality battery for PC. Finally a battery was  made for this that can be  used for a sufficient period of time. There  are many people that are  crazy about this PC but those who want to get  this should not delay.</p>
<p>When  this android tablet PC was created, it brought a great  revolution in  the field of computer technology. In the initial stage of  its  production, it was very difficult to produce the high quality  tablet PC  that can fulfill the requirements of the people in the best  way but  later on the methods were invented that can be useful for  producing a  high quality PC.</p>
<p>The fantastic features of this android include the increased memory,   great screen resolution, wireless access, handwriting software and long   life battery. These features make this PC a great invention of the   modern age. Due to these unique features, especially business people are   paying more attention on getting this for their personal use. Due to   this reason, the demand for PC is increasing day by day rapidly.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class='alignleft size-medium wp-image-1270' src='http://www.myselfanand.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/original-300x211.jpg' alt='original' width='300' height='211' /></p>
<p>If Apple (AAPL)  continues to sidestep the growing iPhone 4 antenna furor, it  risks  losing its grip as America&#8217;s premiere tech company. Also in  today&#8217;s <em>App Industry Roundup</em>, experts are starting to talk about  an iPhone 4 recall.</p>
<h2>Get a grip, Apple</h2>
<p>The biggest problem  with the iPhone 4&#8242;s antenna isn&#8217;t whether it&#8217;s faulty or fine, it&#8217;s  Apple.</p>
<p>Apple has so far avoided the serious issue of whether the  iPhone 4  has a legitimate hardware problem and instead obfuscated the  issue by  first telling users how to hold the new iPhone and then blaming  a  software glitch. As a result, Apple now has a big PR headache on top  of  an obvious hardware flaw.</p>
<p>If Apple admitted the hardware flaw,  its PR problem would start to go away. But it hasn&#8217;t, and news  organizations including Consumer Reports and Engadget  continue to prove the  antenna is faulty. Worse, countless consumers  have weighed in on the  matter &#8230; and that&#8217;s Apple&#8217;s biggest problem.</p>
<p>The iconic  computer maker is in danger of losing its grip on the  public psyche, an  incredible asset it has milked for the last decade to  become one of  America&#8217;s most admired companies. Apple&#8217;s CEO, Steve  Jobs, is beloved  because of his singular vision and insistence that  good design and  computing hardware go hand in hand. Jobs utters, we  listen. It is a  unique power Bill Gates could never muster.</p>
<p>Now Apple is on the  cusp of throwing it away, much like it is apparently deleting  discussion threads from its message boards  about the Consumer  Reports story. Apple&#8217;s products have reached beyond  the fanboys who  tolerate the company&#8217;s flaws and into the mainstream,  where grandparents  and in-laws are mad because when they finally buy a  smartphone, they  expect the phone portion to work properly.</p>
<p>Apple needs to  address this problem head on, not blame software  oddities. And the sooner it does so, the sooner it can move away  from what has become a legitimate crisis for the company.</p>
<h2>Is an  iPhone 4 recall next?</h2>
<p>Yes, the iPhone 4&#8242;s antenna problem is fixable  &#8212; tape! &#8212; but is  that enough? Many people will use a case anyway to  protect their iPhone  and not care about the antenna issue, but there&#8217;s a  growing belief  that Apple may need to consider a recall to fix the  iPhone 4&#8242;s antenna  woes.</p>
<p>Interviews with several PR experts on  the Cult of Mac website  conclude that &#8216;the iPhone 4 reception issue presents a Toyota-style PR   crisis for Apple, and the company must respond with a more meaningful   fix than a software patch.&#8217;</p>
<p>“Apple needs to put this fire out  now,” Larry  Barton,  a crisis management expert, told the website. “There has  to be a  military-like response to this issue. And we have not seen this  kind of  urgency.”</p>
<p>Later in the same story, Chris Lehane, a  crisis expert who earned  his stripes managing public relations for  President Bill Clinton, said  Apple needs to acknowledge and address the  problem. &#8216;You deal with it,”  he said. “Apple must protect its brand  image, its crown jewels, at all  cost. Apple has enormous consumer  loyalty but it depends on whether  people believe it’s credible.”</p>
<h2>AT&amp;T  not to blame, finally</h2>
<p>If there&#8217;s a &#8216;winner&#8217; in this antenna fiasco,  it appears to be AT&amp;T (T). Finally, there&#8217;s a reception problem it can&#8217;t  be blamed for.</p>
<p>Nonetheless, the wireless carrier is still very  much involved with  fixing the dead spots and slow zones that impact many  iPhone owners. At  a VentureBeat conference Monday, AT&amp;T Chief  Technology Officer  John Donovan said the company “will move heaven and  Earth”  to meet its customers’ growing data needs. Donovan noted  that the  wireless industry is in &#8216;phase 1&#8242; of data management and much  work is  still being done. Phase 3 will arrive in 2014, he noted, and  that&#8217;s  where video will flow freely and without trouble over wireless   networks.</p>
<p>But you can be sure that the complaints will return  will before that.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class='alignleft size-medium wp-image-1264' src='http://www.myselfanand.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/web_design_chennai_-291x300.png' alt='web_design' width='291' height='300' />A website is a 24/7 salesman of your company. It is also the marketing brochure of your business. When first time visitors land on your website, you only have around 5 seconds to give them a good impression. If your website cannot achieve this, they will leave and visit other sites.</p>
<p>Now, let me share with you 7 tips to help you build a good website:</p>
<p><strong>1.</strong> Your website must be simple, clean and professional. When your website is professional and clean, it reflects well on your company. Your website should be easy to navigate and provides information that visitors want to read.</p>
<p><strong>2.</strong> Do not give your visitors trouble navigating through your site. When visitors find it hard to find what they want, you need to change your navigation bar. The navigation bar should be displayed prominently on the page.</p>
<p><strong>3.</strong> Choose the right color. If you want to excite your visitors, choose a vibrant color. If you want to present a professional and slick look, choose something light.</p>
<p><strong>4.</strong> Place all important information on the top of the home page. You only have 5 seconds to tell the visitors what your website is about. So remember to present all important information to the visitors as soon as possible.</p>
<p><strong>5.</strong> Display graphics prominently. Graphics can grab visitors’ attention easily. Therefore, you should display graphics prominently on your page.</p>
<p><strong>6.</strong> Your website should have an unique branding and USP. By having an unique branding and USP, you will stand out from your competitors. Sometimes, people purchase a product or service based on brands. A good website branding can bring your business further. Also, make sure that you keep the brand consistent throughout the site.</p>
<p><strong>7.</strong> Place important call-to-action statements on your website. You need to prompt your website visitors to take a particular action such as purchasing a product or service. So make use of colors and bolding to make important words stand out.</p>
<p>Here’s an additional tip for you. Before you make your website live on the Internet, remember to test it across different browser platforms. This is to make sure that your website displays correctly across various browsers.</p>
<p>Last but not least, if you are not the designer, make sure that you work closely with the designer. Give him or her a few reference sites to follow. This will ensure that the both of you are aligned towards the same goal.</p>
