control Electrical Devices From user web browser using esp8266 Nodemcu | Internet Of Things

control Electrical Devices From user web browser using esp8266 Nodemcu | Internet Of Things | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Hi, in this tutorial we will see how to control electrical devices like fan, light, etc., to turn on and off using esp8266 from a web browser. if you are bored with a dedicated device controller like an app or an remote which will be available for only one particular device but using this method all the device which support web browsing will be act as a  controller for us.

Make sure all the devices are connected to the same router, this example doesn't include a port forwarding function which will not allow us to control the device from outside the home network. 

Components that you need for completing this project are very simple, you need to have an esp8266 wifi module and a relay, make sure you buying a 5v relay which very easy to use with esp chips doesn't require external supply too. we can make use of the Vin pin of the nodemcu or if you are using a generic chip, you need to supply an external 5v to the relay.

Cayenne IoT + ESP8266: driving a mini kit Pan-Tilt FPV SG90 in WiFi with a smartphone or tablet | #Coding #Maker #MakerED #MakerSpaces  | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

In this new tutorial on Cayenne IoT, we will learn how to control an articulated Pan-Tilt PTZ SG90 system in WiFi. In the previous tutorial, we saw how to do with the Blynk library and application. Cayenne IoT is fairly similar. It is necessary to pass through the servers of myDevices.com which can cause a small delay of latency (quality of Internet connection, server load …).

Raspberry Pi-alike NanoPi K1 Plus: For $35 you get 2xRAM, 4K video, Gigabit Ethernet | #Coding #Maker #MakerSpaces #MakerED

Raspberry Pi-alike NanoPi K1 Plus: For $35 you get 2xRAM, 4K video, Gigabit Ethernet | #Coding #Maker #MakerSpaces #MakerED | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

FriendlyElec has released a $35 rival to the Raspberry Pi 3 B+, outdoing the better-known board with 2GB of memory, Gigabit Ethernet, and a more powerful GPU.

The NanoPi K1 Plus follows FriendlyElec's Nano Pi K2, released last year with similar dimensions to the Raspberry Pi 3 for $40.

The NanoPi K1 Plus shares similar specs to the Nano Pi K2 and maintains the Raspberry Pi's form factor, but offers double the RAM, Gigabit Ethernet, and 4K video playback.

The device also has the same 40-pin GPIO pin-header as the Raspberry Pi 3, so it should work with Raspberry Pi accessories and housings.

Instead of the NanoPi K2's 1.5GHz Amlogic processor, FriendlyElec opted for an Allwinner H5 quad-core 64-bit Cortex A53 processor that runs at 1.4 GHz as well as a six-core Mali450 GPU. The Raspberry Pi 3 B+ uses a 1.4GHz Broadcom BCM2837B0, Cortex-A53 ArmV8 64-bit SoC.

The NanoPi K1 features three USB 2.0 ports, one microUSB 2.0 port for power, a microSD slot, while wireless support includes 802.11 b/g/n.

WiFi4EU: Gemeinden bekommen je 15.000 Euro für WLAN-Hotspots | #ModernSociety #EU #Europe #ICT | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Die EU-Kommission will den öffentlichen Raum mit kostenlosem WLAN versorgen. Für die Einrichtung von Hotspots erhalten bis zu 8000 Gemeinden je 15.000 Euro. Jetzt startet die erste Bewerbungsphase.

Im Rahmen der Initiative WiFi4EU will die EU den öffentlichen Raum mit schnellem Internet versorgen. Schon bald sollen auf öffentlichen Plätzen, in Parks, Krankenhäusern und Büchereien WLAN-Hotspots zu finden sein – finanziert auch von der EU. Nun geht das Projekt in die nächste Runde: Seit dem heutigen Dienstag können sich Städte und Gemeinden auf der WiFi4EU-Webseite registrieren, um mit etwas Glück einen Gutschein in Höhe von 15.000 Euro für die Einrichtung von WLAN-Hotspots zu bekommen.

Case in point: My group has just released a new preprint (get it here) that shows how the WiFi information routinely collected by your smartphone can easily be converted to precise information about your location. WiFi routers reveal where you live, work, and spend your leisure time.

While your phone may have told you that WiFi helps “improve location accuracy”, it may come as a surprise that:


  • A majority of apps in the store have access to the list of routers around you (scanned every 20 seconds).
  • Your Android smartphone by default scans for WiFi routers even if you disable WiFi.

I have said for a long time that WiFi Hotspots are not a secure place to do anything online that you would not want exposed to the general public. This being online banking, online shopping, viewing your corporate email account, etc. being just a few. 

 

With free online tools available on the Internet, it has become very easy for an attacker to view the information that you are entering into your computer from a free Wifi hotspot. These WiFi hotspots may be very handy, but not very secure.

 

The article above will show you a couple of ways that you can protect you and your computer if you travel frequently and use these hotspots. I want you to stay protected. 

 

Stay safe out there!

Public Wi-Fi is becoming more and more popular. It’s becoming prominent absolutely everywhere, and almost everyone uses it when given the opportunity. But many people still seem to feel that public Wi-Fi networks are built to give the public free Wi-Fi access without having to make concession with their privacy, and this is in spite of growingevidence to the contrary. And based on the show of political support for Wi-Fi, one can extend this to include the perception of lawmakers.

So we here at F-Secure teamed up with ethical hacking firm Mandalorian and investigative journalist Peter Warren to conduct a little experiment that could highlight the risks that people (including politicians) take when they use public Wi-Fi.

Security weakness found in WiFi enabled LED light bulb

Security weakness found in WiFi enabled LED light bulb | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
Researchers at Context Information Security have been able to expose a security weakness in a WiFi enabled, energy efficient LED light bulb ...


The work by Context is part of ongoing research into the security of the emerging Internet of Things (IoT) and raises some questions. "It is clear that in the dash to get onto the IoT bandwagon, security is not being prioritised as highly as it should be in many connected devices," said Michael Jordon, Research Director at Context.

"We have also found vulnerabilities in other internet connected devices from home storage systems and printers to baby monitors and children's toys.


IoT security needs to be taken seriously, particularly before businesses start to connect mission critical devices and systems," he added.

Hotspots: Europol mahnt zur Vorsicht

Hotspots: Europol mahnt zur Vorsicht | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
datensicherheit,de - Europol warnt vor öffentlichen Hotsport – F-Secure rät zu VPN-Verbindungen bei sensiblen Anwendungen


Öffentliche Wi-Fi Hotspots sind an sich eine tolle Sache. Wenn man kurz die aktuellen Bundesligaergebnisse checken möchte oder den nächsten Taxistand sucht. Dann spricht nichts gegen die kurze Nutzung eines solchen Angebots“, erklärt Sean Sullivan, Security Advisor bei F-Secure Labs. „Wenn es aber um den Transfer privater oder geschäftlicher Informationen geht, dann wird es gefährlich, wenn man nicht explizit vorsorgt.“


Um Verbraucher bei der Nutzung von öffentlichen Wi-Fis zu schützen, rät F-Secure zur Nutzung sicherer VPN-Verbindungen. Diese können beispielsweise durch die Mobile App F-Secure Freedome schnell eingerichtet werden.


„Anstatt verschiedene Anforderungen für immer mehr Geräte und Services erfüllen zu müssen, sollten wir eher eine zentrale Sicherheitslösung wählen, die immer auf dem neuesten Stand und effektiv ist. So funktioniert F-Secure Freedome. Mit dieser Anwendung wird ein umfassendes Konzept für den Schutz von mobilen Geräten und Daten realisiert“, berichtet Sean Sullivan. „F-Secure Freedome bietet neben Malware-Schutz und Spyware-Schutz auch ein VPN zur Verschlüsselung von Verbindungen. Dadurch können Verbraucher den Gaunern in öffentlichen Hotspots die Türe vor der Nase zuschlagen.“

Identitätsdiebstahl verstehen 2: Mehr Angriffspunkte, mehr Tools und mehr Prävention

Identitätsdiebstahl verstehen 2: Mehr Angriffspunkte, mehr Tools und mehr Prävention | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Im Artikel Identitätsdiebstahl verstehen: Angriffspunkte, Tools und Prävention zeigten wir moderne Mittel und Wege auf, wie Sie Ihrer digitalen Identität beraubt werden können.  Wir beschrieben darin einige der verbreitetsten Wege und Tools, mit Hilfe derer Identitätsdiebe in Ihren Computer eindringen, und erklärten, wie Sie ihnen diese Wege versperren können und Diebstahl durch eine Lösung mit gesundem Menschenverstand und eine effiziente Anti-Malware-Software wie Emsisoft Anti-Malware 8 verhindert werden kann.

 

Wir widmeten ebenso viel Zeit dem Vergleich modernen Identitätsdiebstahls mit früherer Vorgehensweisen.  Wir diskutierten, wie viele Tools sich gewandelt haben, aber dass viele Ansätze, die auf Täuschung beruhen, nach wie vor gleich geblieben sind.
