Share: Domain Name

A domain name is a website URL, is the address, is your website name where Internet users can find and visit your website. Computers use IP addresses, which are a series of number. However, it is difficult for people to remember. Because of this, domain names were developed and used to identify entities on the Internet rather than using IP addresses.
 
A domain name can be any combination of letters and numbers, and it can be used in combination of the various extensions, such as .com, .net and more.
 
The domain name must be registered before you can use it. Every domain name is unique. If someone types in www.yourdomain.com, it will and only go to your website.
 
Domain names are formed by the rules and procedures of the Domain Name System (DNS). Any name registered in the DNS is a domain name.
 
"Domain names are organized in subordinate levels (subdomains) of the DNS root domain, which is nameless. The first-level set of domain names are the top-level domains (TLDs), including the generic top-level domains (gTLDs), such as the prominent domains: com, info, net, edu, and org, and the country code top-level domains (ccTLDs). Below these top-level domains in the DNS hierarchy are the second-level and third-level domain names that are typically open for reservation by end-users." - Wiki
 
The top-level domains (TLDs) such as com, net and org are the highest level. Top-level domains form the DNS root zone of the hierarchical Domain Name System. Every domain name ends with a top-level domain label. 
 
Below the top-level domains in the domain name hierarchy are the second-level domain (SLD) names. These are the names directly to the left of .com, .net, and the other top-level domains. As an example, in the domain sample.co.us, co is the second-level domain.
 
Next are third-level domains, which are written immediately to the left of a second-level domain. There can be fourth- and fifth-level domains, and so on, with virtually no limitation. Each label is separated by a full stop (dot).

Share: DDoS

Distributed denial of service (DDoS), happens when attackers send requests to a target’s IP address, causing the server or network to become overwhelmed, resulting in a denial-of-service to normal traffic. Symptoms of a DDoS attack: - a site or service is suddenly very slow or unavailable - suspicious amounts of traffic from a single IP or IP range - suspicious amounts of traffic from users who share the same profile, device, etc - odd traffic patterns, spikes at odd hours, etc Some methods to reduce or even to prevent DDoS: - monitor web traffic - restriction (for example country) - use cloud - increase bandwidth - have plans (for example security plans)

Share: Money Game

Beware of Money Game Schemes (Skim Cepat Kaya): A Cautionary Alert Money game schemes, commonly known in Malaysia as “Skim Cepat Kaya”, are deceptive operations that disguise themselves as legitimate investment platforms. Although they may appear professional and convincing, these schemes are illegal and often leave participants with significant financial losses. How They Work These fraudulent schemes typically promise unusually high returns, interest rates, or profits that far exceed what legitimate investments offer. The reality is that these “returns” are not generated through any actual business or investment activity. Instead, early participants are paid using the funds collected from newer recruits, a structure similar to a Ponzi scheme. Such models are inherently unsustainable. Once the influx of new deposits slows down or stops, the entire system collapses. At that point, most investors, especially those who joined later, suffer major or total financial losses. Tactics Used to ...

Share: Programming Languages

Programming languages are essential tools that enable humans to communicate with computers, instructing them to perform specific tasks. These languages serve as a bridge between human understanding and machine execution, allowing developers to create a wide range of software applications. In this comprehensive overview, we'll explore the history, types, and characteristics of programming languages. History of Programming Languages: The history of programming languages can be traced back to the mid-19th century, with the development of early mechanical computers. Ada Lovelace, often regarded as the world's first programmer, wrote algorithms for Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine in the 1840s. However, the true evolution of programming languages gained momentum in the 20th century. 1. Machine Code and Assembly Language: The earliest "programming" involved manually toggling switches or setting wires on early computers to input binary instructions directly. As techno...
