GOOGLE GLASS HACKED

The public pre-released google glass is vulnerable said software developers.

Tweeted  by a software developer, the popular cydia developer-Jay freeman popularly known as  Saurik stated on Friday that google glass which runs the android 4.0.4 version is subject to the ADB restore race condition, making it vulnerable to exploitations after running a research on the developer’s model of the google glass.

According to forbes.com, Saurik found out that the use of of a propounded exploit by a hacker known as Binary could grant a user full access to the google’s glass operating system. The process entails backing up the device, modifying the back up and while restoring the back up, changes are made to the restored data that redirects the restored data to overwrite a critical configuration file. This makes the device think it’s running on the android developer’s emulator which grants full control to developers.

 Liam McLoughlin, a software developer, also described the google glass as an easy to root device on his twitter handle @Hexxeh and that called for a response by Tim Bray(a google staff) who replied that the google glass device is hackable.

This discovery could help google glass users violate Google’s terms of use on the google glass without it been detected according to Forbes and that I feel could possibly signify that the device can be re-sold or shared by two or more users as against Google’s instructions.

CYDIA NOW AVAILABLE ON ANDROID

No one could tell if this leak could be vulnerable on the about to be released public version or only possible on the developers version. I feel Google needs a re-think for a secured re-work.

6 WAYS TO SEND SECRET MAILS AND SMS ONLINE

Back in the days of our fathers, when technology was still in a very young age; when they had to send messages through the post office.  Then there was a few situations of messages been leaked. They all had secrets between partners and their secrets were kept by partners without it been leaked to intruders in the process of letters/post-mails been transferred/conveyed to its respective partners.

                The jet-age where almost everything our fathers do is computerized and we now rely mostly on digital mails; messages are passed across to loved ones through electronic mails, sms, social sites, etc.

For years back the world has come to a full understanding of the fact that every message passed across to a certain recipient can be read by a third party sometimes before it gets to the deserved receiver. Hmm! I guess you understand what that means- your secrets could be on the national papers.

                Are you involved in private affairs and deals or you wish to share a secret with a loved one? Then you must be thinking deep on the necessary methods to remain private as you share that secret information.

 There are certain methods through which you can send that secret mail and sms to your private mate and I want to share 6 of them:-

1.     DRAFT MAILS- This is a process whereby two involved parties have security access to a certain e-mail account. A Message is written and save to drafts by an individual and the recipient would also access same account, view the message and also reply the message by same draft process without sending it across the server. This process was used by David Petraeus.

2.      CODE MAILS- Code mails involves the use of secret key word known to two or more private individuals to exchange encrypted mails to each other. The sent messages cannot be read without the key, the sender encodes a particular message with a key and the recipient would also need to make use of the key before he/she can decode the message.

3.       SILENT SENDER- Send mails to a confidante from your personal computer or mobile gadgets to a secret partner anonymously. Your messages can only be read by your intended recipient with the use of silentsender

4.       BLACK SMS

Black sms is a paid IOS application that enables individuals to send and receive messages in an encrypted mode. The iphone app converts messages into vague pictures that can be sent via text messages to the recipient and to view the coded message behind the image, the image would need to be uploaded back into the app for it to be converted back to messages. This method is carried out by only iphone users.

    

  5.  WICKR

It is a free application unlike black sms that is responsible for sending encrypted messages in form of texts, audios, pictures and videos. With wickr you can send private messages to friends and loved ones or that lady you checking on. *Winks* It is available for iphones presently and sooner or later the android version would be available.

6.       OFF –WEB

This method still remains the best way to protect that secret of yours from been leaked out to intruders. Almost everything that has to do with the web can be cracked or hacked. Why not put your pen to paper and pass  that secret message to your confidante
