GOOGLE INTRODUCES DART, A STRONG ALTERNATIVE TO JAVASCRIPT



Google has taken the lid off an early preview of Dart, a new web programming language aimed at helping developers address what the search giant sees as the shortcomings of JavaScript, with a focus on developing apps that scale from tiny to huge.
In his Google Code blog entry, Dart software engineer Lars Bak lists the following as the new language’s design goals:


Create a structured yet flexible language for web programming.
Make Dart feel familiar and natural to programmers and thus easy to learn.
Ensure that Dart delivers high performance on all modern web browsers and environments ranging from small handheld devices to server-side execution.

Seems pretty straightforward. And, as Bak goes on to say, Dart is facilitating scenarios from a one-man development project all the way up to bigger applications that require teams of programmers by enabling you to start coding without types and add them in later.


Dart comes with its own native virtual machine, but there’s also a compiler that translates Dart to JavaScript. Between those two options, Google says that applications written in Dart can run in any modern browser. The Dart VM isn’t yet integrated with the Google Chrome browser, but Bak indicates that they’re looking into it.


The first wave of basic libraries and Dart tools are available as open source on their own site, and Bak says that Google is soliciting feedback from developers as the platform matures.



On a final note, if you’re interested in a deeper dive into Dart,there was plenty of interesting tidbits to come out of their conversation, including the roadmap to making Dart a common standard and the fact that Dart isn’t designed to make JavaScript obsolete.

Are Google Planning to Launch a Music Store? [INC VIDEO]




In May, a cloud-based music streaming app was launched by Google, called Google Music. This app allows users to back up their music files and also to stream them to other devices such as mobile phones. Google plans on using this to open an online MP3 store, hopefully to provide some competition for Amazon and Apple.
According to WSJ, Google have been working with major music companies, Universal Music Group Warner Music Group EMI Group and Sony Music to gain licenses for their catalogues, although this is nowhere near resolved. However Citigroup (EMI) appear to be close to making a deal possibly including the licenses for Pink Floyd, Coldplay and Kylie Minogue.
Although Google Music is still in invitation-only BETA testing mode, the New York Times stated that Google are hopeful that the store may be ready to launch within the next few weeks.
Unfortunately, the way that Google Music operates may make an online music store difficult to release. Unlike Apple, Google allows users to store music and transfer it to many different compatible devices. This means that all music, and licenses, have to be uploaded and cannot be streamed from the service. Apple have worked around this problem by having licenses that allow remote access to their online libraries so there is no need for uploading, this is much easier.
Although Google are still working on their licensing issues, they do allow users to upload their iTunes libraries into Google Music.
See this video for more information on how Google Music works and don’t forget to leave your views and ideas in our comments section.

Apple former CEO Steve Jobs dies after an year long fight from cancer



Steve once said -
“Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure — these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.”
“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice.”
These sentences are truly inspirational yet heart pounding.
Apple’s former CEO finally died today after an year long battle from a pancreatic cancer.
This is truly a sad moment fro Silicon Valley and for every single techie who uses technology is some way of the other. He was truly a legend, a great businessman, and a game changer.
For me , he was the most influential person I have ever heard and read of .
Techno Titans salutes the “GOD OF TECHNOLOGY”.
Its a loss then cant be recovered for many generations.

FAST DRAFT ASSEMBLY FOR BASIC REVERSE ENGINEERING




Hello friends. I have been busy these days so couldn’t bring anything new for you all. Currently I am shifting my focus from web hacking to reverse engineering. This field has been quenching me form some days as I don’t have much knowledge related to it. But many experts have advised that learning Assembly and shell coding is essential for exploit development. There are lots of vulnerabilities discovered everyday. So a big challenge lies in converting the vulnerability into exploit.

 See the thing that differentiates HackingAlert from other hacking and network security websites is that I believe in not just delivering you some hack by making a video with some fancy music or provide you a direct hack without even understanding the basic of it. So the focus of my few articles from now will be on assembly, Shell coding, exploits and Reverse Engineering.
Even I am new to Assembly and still shaping my knowledge in this field. I have made some studies in past few days(though very less due to shortage of time) and would encourage my readers that they should also start considering this area. Fun doesn’t lies in using what is made, instead it lies in making things that others can use.
Teaching you entire assembly is beyond my scope so I would suggest you all to refer some good books and material that is available for free on the internet and have a basic idea of what exactly Assembly is all about.
Here I will share a quick reference guide that can help you with the process of beginning Assembly.
A short and well explained tutorial that I found on the internet. Its quiet helpful to begin with.
Keep your research going to find out more. In the next post we will see how we can use a debugger to Reverse Engineer a software along with some Assembly basics.
Here is the Assembly tutorial  - DOWNLOAD

THC Hydra v.6.4 released | network logon cracker





If you want to crack password of various networking protocols to access remote logon, Hydra is the best tool for that. Hydra is a parallized login cracker which supports numerous protocols to attack. New modules are easy to add, beside that, it is flexible and very fast. Version 6 was tested to compile cleanly on Linux, windows/Cygwin, Solaris 11, FreeBSD 8.1 and OSX.

Currently this tool supports:
TELNET, FTP, HTTP, HTTPS, HTTP-PROXY, SMB, SMBNT, MS-SQL, MYSQL, REXEC, RSH, RLOGIN, CVS, SNMP, SMTP-AUTH, SOCKS5, VNC, POP3, IMAP, NNTP, PCNFS, ICQ, SAP/R3, LDAP2, LDAP3, Postgres, Teamspeak, Cisco auth, Cisco enable, AFP, Subversion/SVN, Firebird, LDAP2, Cisco AAA (incorporated in telnet module). For HTTP, POP3, IMAP and SMTP, several login mechanisms like plain and MD5 digest are supported.



This tool is a proof of concept code, to give researchers and security consultants the possiblity to show how easy it would be to gain unauthorized access from remote to a system.


Disclaimer
1. This tool is for legal purposes only!
2. The GPLv3 applies to this code.
3. A special license expansion for OpenSSL is included which is required for the debian people


Changelog:

  •  Update SIP module to extract and use external IP addr return from server error to bypass NAT
  •  Update SIP module to use SASL lib
  •  Update email modules to check clear mode when TLS mode failed
  •  Update Oracle Listener module to work with Oracle DB 9.2
  •  Update LDAP module to support Windows 2008 active directory simple auth
  •  Fix to the connection adaptation engine which would loose planned attempts
  •  Fix make script for CentOS, reported by ya0wei
  •  Print error when a service limits connections and few pairs have to be tested
  •  Improved Mysql module to only init/close when needed
  •  Added patch from the FreeBSD maintainers
  •  Module usage help does not need a target to be specified anymore
  •  configure script now honors /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ directory
