Next-Generation ERP is capable of analyzing and acting on a massive pile of data in real-time, using in-memory technologies and cloud-based techniques. Read More:

Domain name systems or DNS is a protocol that translates URLs into IP addresses. DNS tunneling is a type of cyber-attack launched against company networks that encodes the data of other programs through a client-server model. It is a misuse of DNS. A DNS server links the twelve digit IP addresses with the domain name, the tunneling is an attempt to seize the protocol. There should be external network connectivity, and access to an internal DNS server with network access for it to work. A DNS determines how we share information online, but it is vulnerable in terms of security. Hackers use DNS as an established route to data-stealing for malicious purposes. Hackers use DNS tunneling to own a network. It has been around for almost 20 years. Morto and Feederbot malware have been used for DNS tunneling. In tunneling, hackers use the established pathway of DNS to gain confidential information of the company for malicious purposes. Often, email addresses serve as a valuable source for

NLP is an interesting tool that helps break down the semantics of natural language such as English, Spanish, German, etc. to individual words. It then deciphers the intent of the input using various combinations of these words and responds appropriately. This piece of technology has been put to use by many organizations across the globe, and you might not even understand when you are interacting with a machine because it seems very human-like, but is very efficient and there is a very minute lag in terms of responses. Quicker responses help keep customers happy with the speedy resolution of issues and hence eventually result in more business and a boost to the top line. Read More:

OCR being more cost-effective, hence if your office work revolves around the digital or hard copies than it might be the perfect on-budget tool for you. Furthermore, if you couple it with other technologies such as scanning and file compression OCR generates editable and searchable documents while being quick, easy and accurate. With Optical Character Recognition you may never have to manually correct or search through multiple pages, speeding the workflow within the organization. No need to retype the hard copies that OCR reads and converts into a word processing file, which furthermore works with a computer voice-over utility and thus is ease of access tool. ICR, on the other hand, specializes in converting multiple types of handwriting into digital characteristics. So, if you work on handwritten notes and manuscripts, Intelligent Character Recognition is what you need. Read More:

Gateway is a networking hardware or network node which connects the two disparate network to communicate with each other. Most common gateways are computer and router which can connect an enterprise to the internet. A firewall is both hardware and software application which sets the rules as per which data packets are allowed to enter the network. The functionality of both these networking systems are present in many devices, like that in router and that’s why people get confused between gateway and firewall. Read More:

A business commonly depends upon the applications, administrations and information contained inside the data center, making it a point of focus and primary resource for ordinary activities. A data center is a facility built out of arranged computers and capacity that organizations or different associations use to organize, process, store and disseminate a lot of information. The concept uptime classification levels were originally given by Ken Brill, founder of the Uptime Institute. He created the Tier system (Tier I, II, III, or IV). The highest level of availability is Tier IV, which is typically defined as “Fault Tolerant and Concurrently Maintainable.” Read More:

The science and technology of manipulating a matter to the level of atoms, molecules and supramolecules presents us with Nanotechnology. With the conception of every new technology, we get flooded with disturbing notions and predictions. For that, we need to understand that technology has been and will be the most significant part of human society’s evolution and is unavoidable. What we could avoid is the misuse and  dangers of that technology. Nanotech is pledging solutions to various chronic and fatal diseases such as cancer, Parkinson, Alzheimer, diabetes, orthopaedic problems, illnesses related to blood, lungs, neurological, and cardiovascular system. Also, according to a  report , in 2018, the Global Healthcare Nanotechnology market size was 160,800 million $ and is expected to reach 306,100 million $ by the end of 2025. Read More:

There are so many new technologies that are finally getting on-board.  After years of foretelling and testing, many are now a prevalent part of multiple services.

There is no doubt that technology has changed the approach of companies on how to conduct business. It’s hard to believe that in the past ten years the significance of so many things has changed almost too quickly. Read More

A dynamic digital In-Silico or a mirror representation of a living or non-living physical being that bridges the physical and virtual realm, coherently transmitting the data to sync and exist concurrently. The entity could be anything including processes, people, places, systems and devices. The “Digital Twin” of a body enables real-time aspects with its operation and monitoring simulations. The idea, however, is not new. NASA, for one, has run complex simulations for decades now. But, with the modern world techs like Artificial Intelligence, Big Data and Internet Of Things, we are up to see some absolute disruption in digital trends covering multiple sectors. A digital twin is useful in simulating real-world conditions and analyzing how it responds to changes and thus improve operations and assess with significant alterations. Moreover, digital twin technology has consistently been included in all of Garner’s list of “ Top 10 Strategic Technology Trends ” since 2017. Read More

Google has quite the knack of surprising us with core updates when we least expect it. If it was not for Twitter, we might have thought that Google broke.

While there have been many policies against deforestation, vehicles are still using way more natural oils and lessening the greenhouse effect and depletion of the ozone-layer for so long. But, it is not having the impact that it is supposed to. Furthermore, some of the humans are responsible for climate deterioration more than the others. And that includes industry and government people. Many policies against industrial waste have been created and are rolling-on for past few decades but don’t seem to be working against global warming. Why? It is because the rate of which we are depleting and consuming nature is not even close to the speed of maintaining the balance. These policies are not even a wall is close to being enough for stopping the rising oceans. On top of that, highly influential politicians stating that global warming is a hoax doesn’t help the earth’s deteriorating health. Read More

There can be various kinds of such weaknesses in a system which we shall be discussing further. Attackers use various techniques to exploit these different types of vulnerabilities to their advantage. The causes that could give rise to of such weaknesses include the complexity of the software, connectivity, password management flaws, OS design flaws, software bugs, unchecked user input points, and more. Vulnerability and risk are often incorrectly used interchangeably. Risk can be defined as the potential of some significant impact resulting from the exploit of a vulnerability. Read More
