Yes, you heard right. You can now hack a car by making necessary modifications – but to the car owned by you, not your neighbors.

Last year, President Obama passed a bill called 'Unlocking Consumer Choice and Wireless Competition Act,' following which users could unlock their devices – generally those locked under a contract – to use a specific service provider.


The same year, Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) filed a petition with the Librarian of Congress, which has the authority to grant Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) exemptions, for allowing customers and independent mechanics to repair their vehicles on their own by making necessary modifications.

Though many automakers were in opposition to this petition, as they believed by doing so the safety measures of vehicles are going to be at a higher risk.

EFF got Success!


Yesterday, Library of Congress approved copyright act exemptions, allowing you to alter the software on your car for the purpose of security research, maintenance, or repair.

The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) filed the request for software access as part of the Section 1201 of the (DMCA).

United States copyright law DMCA contains two main sections that have been a controversial matter since they went into effect in 2000. These are:
  1. Section 1201- The "Anti-Circumvention" provisions bar circumvention of access controls and technical protection measures.
  2. Section 512- The "Safe Harbor" provisions protect service providers who meet certain conditions from monetary damages for the infringing activities of their users and other third parties on the Internet.
However, previously security researchers also mentioned about the numerous security vulnerabilities that affect the major automobiles.

The Hacker News reported how researchers reverse-engineered and modified the Uconnect firmware of a Jeep to remotely hijack car's network, its steering, brakes, and transmission.

Now, approving this petition may give researchers way to new methods of hacking a car.

Messing with Cars can Cost You


The adverse effects of lifting the "Ban on tinkering with Car's Software" can be:
  • An owner modifying car's software to disable the airbags and sell it afterwards.
  • Car owner playing with the software such that, its ability to read lane lines and detect other vehicles is disabled.
  • An owner tweaking the car software in such a way that the car's emissions increase as compared to normal driving.
These are few examples of how things can get worse by freeing the copyright ownership by the automakers, which is serious matter to think upon because...

...the software on your smartphone or PC cannot kill anyone, but with malicious intentions and a tampered software in your car can.

Moreover, few days ago, Honda officially ordered 142k cars' return over the software issues that would lock up the front wheels in some models.

Biggest Free Hosting Company Hacked; 13.5 Million Plaintext Passwords Leaked

The world’s most popular Free Web Hosting company 000Webhost has suffered a major data breach, exposing more than 13.5 Million of its customers' personal records.

The stolen data includes usernames, passwords in plain text, email addresses, IP addresses and last names of around 13.5 Million of 000Webhost's customers.

According to a recent report published by Forbes, the Free Hosting service provider 000Webhost was hacked in March 2015 by an anonymous hacker.


In a post on its official Facebook page, the hosting company has acknowledged the data breach and posted the following statement:
"We have witnessed a database breach on our main server. A hacker used an exploit in old PHP version to upload some files, gaining access to our systems. Although the whole database has been compromised, we are mostly concerned about the leaked client information."
The stolen data was obtained by Troy Hunt, an Australian security researcher, who received the data from an anonymous source and also confirmed the authenticity of the data.
"By now there's no remaining doubt that the breach is legitimate and that impacted users will have to know," Hunt wrote in a blog post published Wednesday. "I'd prefer that 000webhost be the ones to notify [its customer] though."

000Webhost Ignored Data Breach Warnings Continuously


000Webhost web Hosting company repeatedly failed to pay attention to the early warnings by Troy Hunt and the Forbes journalist, but the company ultimately decided to ignore them.

What's even Worse?

The Web Hosting company did not even follow fundamental and standard security practices to ensure the security of its customers.

Data breaches are common these days. Just a few days back, we reported about a serious data breach at TalkTalk – the biggest phone and broadband provider in the UK that put the personal data of its 4 Million customers at risk.

But, What could a Security Breach lead to?
  • Severe damage to company's reputation
  • Loss of consumer trust
  • Thousands of dollars in penalties and fines
  • Personal data loss cost infinite
  • Temporary or Permanent Closure
Note: At the time of writing, 000webhost.com website is temporarily down.

What Should You Do Now?


For security reasons, the team at Free Hosting service has changed all customers' passwords to the random values and implemented encryption, without giving any direct notice to its affected customers.

That means, if you are one of those 13.5 Million 000webhost clients, then you need to follow thepassword reset process to generate a new password in order to access your account.

However, 000Webhost said: "We removed all illegally uploaded pages as soon as we became aware of the [data] breach. Next, we changed all the passwords and increased their encryption to avoid such mishaps in the future."

Storing customers passwords in plain text, ignoring early warnings, and then implementing encryption to prevent further damages.

A hacker is basically someone who breaks into computer networks or standalone personal computer systems for the challenge of it or because they want to profit from their innate hacking capabilities. The hacker subculture that has developed among these new-age outlaws is often defined as the computer underground, although as of late it has evolved into a more open society of sorts. Today many of you want to become a hacker as everyone wants to see beyond security and private credentials. So in this post i will tell you the best way to become Ethical Hacker.

How To Become Certified Ethical Hacker ?

Today many businesses and government-related organizations that are serious about theirnetwork security hire ethical hackers and penetration testers to help probe and improve their networks, applications, and other computer systems with the ultimate goal of preventing data theft and fraud from that black hat and other hackers.  So you can earn through it by learning the ethical hacking.

How To Become Ethical Hacker (10 Steps)

There are many ways to become an ethicial hacker to get certified for that . Below i have listed the ways to have knowledge about how the things actually works so you are able to hack it.

  1. Programming

    Programming
    A programmer or developer knows how to build software and websites and these software or websites may be very important and require better security researches. Role of hacker will be as a security analyst who should find the flaws on the programs or websites and help programmer to make it more secure by testing different attacks on it . Also it is not possible if the hacker don’t have the knowledge of programming .  I have already written some article that will help you to understand programming and development of certain live projects.
    READ: BEST WEBSITES TO LEARN PROGRAMMING.

  2. Networking

    Networking
    Today the knowledge of networking is very essential as we daily shares a lot of stuff on internet and some data may be shared publicly but some data must be secured like your passwords, Bank information etc. And an ethical hacker must have ability to find out any flaw on the network security and vulnerabilities. And if you are well aware about the working of internet, he/she can figure out most of the problem on network securities.

  3. Encryption & DecryptionEncryption & Decryption

    This manly refers to cryptography, which means how you secure something that is with what methods ,like when you want to login in some site you enter the passwords there . Similarly you can use many other ways to encrypt something like OTP(one time password), Finger Prints, Face Detection etc. And when you the best way to encrypt a thing then you must know the decryption method to bypass that securities to become a ethical hacker.

  4. DBMS (Database Management System)dbms

    This is the another most important thing that you must know as if you know how to create and manage different databases then only you can learn how they can be easily hacked like SQL injection knowledge can’t be get without knowing the SQL.

  5. Linux/UNIXlinux unix

    Linux is very much powerful and It’s also free, and 100% open source, meaning anyone can look at each and every line of code in the Linux kernel and patch it when problems arise, means that Linux can be secured not just by a few programmers locked away in some corporate headquarters, but by any user at any time . So this is the best operating system that can choose while learning hacking. And note that most of the hacker use this OS.

  6. Code in C Programming Language
    C Programming

    C programming is the base of learning UNIX/LINUX as this OS is coded in C programming which makes it the most powerful language as compared to other programming languages. C language was developed by Dennis Ritchie in late 1970’s. To become a hacker, starts begning with learn C language.

  7. Learn More Than One Programming Language

    Learn More Than One Programming Language
    It is important for a person in the hacking field to learn more than one programming language. There are number of programming languages are there and learn such as C++, Java, Python, Free Hacking eBooks and tutorials etc are easily available online.

  8. Learn More Than One OS (Operating Systems)
    Learn More Than One OS (Operating Systems)

    It is essential for a hacker to learn more than one operating system. There are many other Operating systems apart from LINUX/UNIX, Windows, MAC OS, Android, JAVA, Cent  etc. Every system has a loop hole, hacker needs it to exploit it.

  9. Experiment
    Hacking Tech Hacks

    After learning some concepts of hacking/cracking, sit and practice them. Setup your own lab for experimental purpose. You need a good computer system to start with as some tools may require powerful processor, RAM etc. Keep on Testing and learning until you breach a system.

  10. Continue Learning
    Continue Hacking

    Learning is the key to success in the world of hacking. Continuous learning and practicing will make you the best hacker. Keep yourself updated about security changes and learn about new ways to exploit systems
Today this is the worlds most advanced ethical hacking course with 19 of the most current security domains any ethical hacker will ever want to know when they are planning to beef up the information security posture of their organization over the internet and the main goal of this course is to help you master an ethical hacking methodology that can be used in a penetration testing or ethical hacking situation on any security. There you will walk out the door with hacking skills that are highly in demand, as well as the internationally recognized certified ethical hacker certification.

Here we have a new advice for all new Samsung Galaxy S5 owners: just say the “Okay, Google” hot words and the magic will happen right out of the box in the new Touchwiz launcher. Yes, Google Now is an amazingly powerful service and we must admit that with its predictive cards and voice search, it can be just the help that you need in so many situations. So, do you know how to use Google Now Commands for your Samsung Galaxy S5?
Samsung has decided to build the “Okay, Google” detection right into the Galaxy S5’s stock launcher, but this is not enough. Just as usually, all you have to say are these two simple words any time you’re on your home screen and voice search immediately starts listening, but simple functions such as turning Wi-Fi or Bluetooth off without having to touch the screen are still not something that you can normally take advantage of.
If your Samsung Galaxy S5 is rooted, then you have some chances to change that, but if rooting is not an option, we have another solution for you. We are talking about developer Ryan Senanayake has managed to bring custom voice commands to non-rooted Galaxy S5 devices as well. All you have to do is to use Senanayake’s app which is available for free on Google Play and follow this step by step guide.

Set Up New Google Now Commands for your Galaxy S5 by using Commandr:

  1. Senanayake’s app known as Commandr can be found here. Download it by using the given link and then install it;
  2. When you first launch Commander, you will be greeted by a setup wizard; just as the screen says, swipe left in order to begin;
  3. On the next screen, Commandr presents that it uses an Android Accessibility service to intercept your voice commands; you have to tap Open Settings to enable this service;
  4. After that, you’ll be taken into a settings menu; look through the list of options and tap the one labeled Commandr for Google Now;
  5. On the next screen, toggle the switch at the top to On and press OK on the following pop-up;
  6. After that, you have to hit the Back button on your Samsung Galaxy S5 twice to head back to the Commandr setup wizard;
  7. From the Commandr setup wizard, you must swipe left to continue;
  8. On the following screen, choose what service you’d like to use as your note-taking app;
  9. After that, tap Done to complete the setup;
  10. Now you’ll be taken to Commandr’s main menu; here you’ll see that Enable interception is already ticked, since you enabled the Accessibility service during initial setup;
  11. If you want to customize your voice commands, you have to tap the Built-in Commands entry;
  12. This will take you to a list of all the pre-configured voice commands; feel free to toggle the switch to the right of a command to disable it;
  13. After doing that, you have the possibility to edit these commands to suit you: delete the voice commands that you don’t want or add a comma and then type in an extra voice command that will trigger the selected functionality; when you’re finished with your edits, you must simply tap Set;
  14. Now, you are ready to use your Custom Voice Commands.
As we have told you from the very beginning, from anywhere on your home screen, you can trigger a custom command. Say “Okay, Google” and then use one of your custom commands.
The default commands are the following ones:
  • Wi-Fi On – “Turn on WiFi”;
  • Wi-Fi Off – “Turn off WiFi”;
  • Flashlight On – “Turn on flashlight”, “Flashlight on” or “Torch”;
  • Flashlight Off – “Turn off flashlight” or “Flashlight off”;
  • Bluetooth On – “Turn on Bluetooth” or “Bluetooth on”;
  • Bluetooth Off – “Turn off Bluetooth” or “Bluetooth off”
  • Pause Music – simply say “Pause music”;
  • Resume Music – “Resume music”;
  • Next Song – “Next song”
  • Previous Song – “Previous song”;
  • Read Unread SMS – “Unread SMS” or “Unread texts”;
  • GPS On – it is not available on Android 4.2+ handsets;
  • GPS Off – is it not available either on Android 4.2+ phones.
Starting to this moment, you should not hesitate to take advantage of the voice activated benefits that you have just earned! We know that OK Google isn’t supported everywhere at this point, but if you’re in a country that does, there is nothing that stops you from using it on your Samsung Galaxy S5! Simply relax and enjoy it!
