A great hacker called samy kamkar, has created $32 hacking Ardiuno nano tool that can open your garage door and unlock your car

Hacker Samy Kamkar has created a $ 32 gadget that lets him unlock
almost any car and trick
garage door openers into
granting access. Like he did with the
USBDriveby tool he whipped
up to hack Macs, Kamkar
based his new hijacking
device on the Arduino Nano.
It's an elegantly simple design, and the way it pilfers unlock
codes is, too. For years now,
vehicle manufacturers have
been using single-use codes on
their remote locks. Press the
button on your fob and if the doors unlock, that code will
never work again. Rolljam
performs a man-in-the-middle
attack, jamming the vehicle's
receiver and snatching a code
before it can be used. The vehicle doesn't unlock,
but most remote lock users
will simply try again. Rolljam
already has the one good code
it needs, so it relays the
second one and the locks open as usual. The stolen code can
be used whenever a thief
decides it's time to cash out.
Kamkar says virtually any
vehicle with remote power
locks is susceptible, and he's tested in on Fords, Chryslers,
Toyotas, Nissans,
Volkswagens, and Cadillacs.
RollJam even worked on a
Lotus. Aftermarket systems
are vulnerable, too, including those made by Viper and
Cobra — two of the most
popular brands out there. You might think that your
garage door affords some
added security, but you'd be
wrong. RollJam can perform
the same attack against most
garage door openers. If there's any good news to
come out of Kamkar's latest
demo, it's that many
automakers have since moved to more advanced systems . Of course,
that's only good
news if you own a newer
vehicle. Nobody's made a
move to update any older
vehicles that are at risk yet.
Maybe they'll take action once Kamkar posts his source code
to GitHub.

HOW TO WRITE, COMPILE AND RUN C++ CODE ON LINUX KALI

This article is for hackers who want to develop a c++ program on Kali Linux without having to install any additional software. While some would tell you that you need to install an additional software or a compiler in order to develop a simple program in c++ on Kali Linux, I am going to show you how to develop a c++ program on this distro right out of box. Your Linux Kali comes pre-installed with a c++ compiler called g++ so we are going to write a C++ hello word code and compile it with this compiler. Before we get started, first open up terminal and run to verify if this compiler is installed on you machine: g++ -v if the compiler is pre-installed, you should get the version information of the compiler, otherwise, you should get an error. Now let's jump right in. In your terminal window, type in: nano MyCpp.cpp to create a c++ file and lunch it in nano editor for editing. When nano opens, type in the following c++ code and press Ctrl+x then y and then R...

LOAN MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (My Project Idea)

There are many companies that specializes on giving loan to people; they make their profits by collecting interest on any money they lend out, and before a loan can be given to any customer, the customer must provide a collateral and some details such as:  contact details and a reference/guarantor. When the loan is finally given to the customer, they charge interest based on the the amount given to the customer for a given period of time which could be daily, weekly, monthly or yearly.  For example, a company could be collecting interest based on a particular amount for a given period of time like: $200,000 loan would have an interest tag of $2,000  per month until the money is returned, and $100,000 would have an interest of $1,000 per month until the money is returned.  In  addition, the customers need to know when the time for them to pay their interest comes e.g.  at the end of the month or the timing model with which the calculation is being made.

How to execute eject command on an ATM Machine using CoreXfs lib on .NET

 In this tutorial, I'm going to demonstrate how to run an eject command on an ATM using CoreXfs, a library I developed.  You can download the library from  here  and follow up with tutorial. First we need to add reference to the downloaded dll. Screen One Once the reference to the dll has been added, you can proceed to coding the application. What I did in the screen below is very simple, I opened the device on the atm using it's logical name so that I can pass in commands. Screen Two So, that's it. thanks for dropping by. You can watch the video below to see how I coded it. Note that this code can only run on an ATM machine. NCR, WINCOR, DIEBOLD, HYOSUNG
