The Raspberry Pi is a wonderful little computer that fits in the palm of your hand, yet packs enough power to run your home media center, a VPN, and a lot more. Before you can do anything awesome, however, you need to configure it and install an operating system. Here’s how. we walked you through some of the common projects people tackle with their Raspberry Pi, like:             Install Raspbian and get started with Raspberry Pi DIY What You’ll Need The Raspberry Pi may be a computer all on its own, but you’ll still need a lot of other things to make it work: A  Raspberry Pi : If you’re not sure where to buy one, you’ll find links below to help you out. An HDMI- or composite video-capable television or monitor : In this post we’ll be working with an HDMI-capable monitor because it offers better resolution and built-in sound. You can use analog if you want, however. An HDMI or composite video cable : You’ll need this cable to connect your Raspberry Pi to your

The Raspberry Pi is a low cost,  credit-card sized computer  that plugs into a computer monitor or TV, and uses a standard keyboard and mouse. It is a capable little device that enables people of all ages to explore computing, and to learn how to program in languages like Scratch and Python. It’s capable of doing everything you’d expect a desktop computer to do, from browsing the internet and playing high-definition video, to making spreadsheets, word-processing, and playing games. What’s more, the Raspberry Pi  has the ability to interact with the outside world, and has been used in a wide array of digital maker projects, from music machines and parent detectors to weather stations and tweeting birdhouses with infra-red cameras. We want to see the Raspberry Pi being used by kids all over the world to learn to program and understand how computers work.

What does  Card Skimming  mean? Card skimming is the illegal copying of information from the magnetic strips found on credit and debit cards. Card skimming is considered a more direct version of a phishing scam. Store clerks who skim cards may do so by having customers swipe their cards more than once, or by taking the card to another location within the store.

When a credit or debit card is swiped through a skimmer, the device captures and stores all the details stored in the card's magnetic stripe. The stripe contains the credit card

Network Mapped (Nmap) is a network scanning and host detection tool that is very useful during several steps of penetration testing. Nmap is not limited to merely gathering information and enumeration, but it is also powerful utility that can be used as a vulnerability detector or a security scanner. So Nmap is a multipurpose tool, and it can be run on many different operating systems including Windows, Linux, BSD, and Mac. Nmap is a very powerful utility that can be used to: Detect the live host on the network (host discovery) Detect the open ports on the host (port discovery or enumeration) Detect the software and the version to the respective port (service discovery) Detect the operating system, hardware address, and the software version Detect the vulnerability and security holes (Nmap scripts) Nmap is a very common tool, and it is available for both the command line interface and the graphical user interface. The objective of this article is to create a handbook that co
