Hello software developers,

Please check your code to ensure you're not making one of the following mistakes related to cryptography.

I. General Mistakes

• Writing your own home-grown cryptography primitives (For example: Mifare Classic)
  • Exception: For the sake of learning, but don't deploy it in production.
• Using a fast hash function (e.g. MD5, SHA256) for storing passwords. Use bcrypt instead.
• Not using a cryptographically secure random number generator

Create a new folder on your machine and then create a file in there called "Dockerfile"

Inside that file we will add a single line:

"FROM ubuntu:latest"

That tells docker to create our image from the latest ubuntu. 

In that directory run "docker build -t demo ." to build it.

Building node-serialport for Electron on Windows

These instruction are for Windows, on my Linux installation(Fedora 21) everything works by just installing serialport with npm (I don't know why!).

These are the steps I did to build node serialport for electron (formerly atom-shell) for Windows. I am completely certain there is a better way to do it, but since I struggled with it for quite a while, here is a solution anyway.

You need some version of Visual studio installed, I have VS 2012 Express for Desktop.

1. Install Linux updates, set time zones, followed by GCC and Make

sudo yum -y update
sudo ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Indianapolis \
/etc/localtime
sudo yum -y install gcc make
 

2. Download, Untar and Make Redis 2.8 (check here http://redis.io/download)

Virtual Hosts on nginx (CSC309)

When hosting our web applications, we often have one public IP address (i.e., an IP address visible to the outside world) using which we want to host multiple web apps. For example, one may wants to host three different web apps respectively for example1.com, example2.com, and example1.com/images on the same machine using a single IP address.

How can we do that? Well, the good news is Internet browsers
