Home Security featuring 4Duino-24

Home Security project is a password oriented security device. This uses 4Duino display as the user interface where the password can be entered. 4Duino is also used as the host device in this project. It handles a buzzer, an ultrasonic sensor, a uCAM-II and a magnetic switch. As a home security device, it sends an alarm to the owner when there is an attempted entrance or any malicious kind of entrance. Initially, Home Security Interface is in idle state. When a person approaches the device, it will be activated. This is achieved using an Ultrasonic Sensor. HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Distance Sensor is able to measure distances from 2cm to 400cm. Ultrasonic receiver and transmitter is included in the module. uCAM-II is used in this project to capture images of the person who attempted a forced entry. uCAM-II is an integrated serial camera module, which uses a CMOS VGA colour sensor along with JPEG compression chip. In addition, a buzzer is also used in this project to produce an alarm signal or noise if the password is entered incorrectly for more than three times. An alarm message is sent to the owner through a web browser. This uses the built-in ESP8266 module in 4Duino. Components 4Duino HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Distance Sensor uCAM-II Magnetic Switch Buzzer Jumper cables µSD Card Micro USB Cable How it works Implementation Step1: Build Connect the components mentioned above as you can see in the fritzing diagram below. Step2: Program Workshop 4 – 4Duino Basic Graphics environment is used to program this project. (The same could be implemented in the latest Arduino IDE) This project requires the Arduino IDE to be installed as Workshop calls the Arduino IDE for compiling the Arduino sketches. The Arduino IDE however is not required to be opened or modified to program the 4Duino. Open this file using Workshop 4. Change the SSID and the PASSWORD to suit your router, in the program. Note: Download the project code here. You can change your Home Security Password in line 62 ( char pass[7] ) , and your reverse password in line 64 (char inPass[7]). Step3: Comms Port Connect the 4Duino to the PC using µUSB cable. Then navigate to the Comms tab and select the Comms port to which the 4Duino connected. Step4: Compile and Upload Finally, go back to “Home” tab and now click on the “ Comp’nLoad ” button. Workshop 4 IDE will prompt you to insert a µSD card to the PC in order to save the widget images. Select uSD card to be loaded and Click “OK”. All you need to do is insert the μSD card to load the image files to into the 4Duino. After uploading the program in to the 4Duino, it will try to mount the μSD card. If the μSD card is not inserted it will print an error message Read more: Home Security featuring 4Duino-24

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Senate on Tuesday confirmed President Donald Trump's pick to lead the National Security Agency and the U.S. Cyber Command. On a voice vote, the Senate approved Paul Nakasone for one of the nation's top intelligence posts. They also approved his military promotion to general. Nakasone, a longtime member of the cryptologic community, has a strong background in cyber issues. He is replacing the current director, Mike Rogers, who is retiring. During his confirmation hearing, Nakasone said China, Russia and other nations that launch cyberattacks against the United States aren't worried about retribution and see no reason to change their behavior. "They don't fear us," he said at the hearing, adding that the U.S. must impose costs on those adversaries to make them stop. Nakasone previously commanded the U.S. Army Cyber Command and held military intelligence positions in Afghanistan, Iraq and the Republic of Korea. ap.stripes.com

Gartner Identifies How Security Leaders Can Be Empowered to Drive Results

NATIONAL HARBOR, Md.--( BUSINESS WIRE )--The overwhelming demands on security leaders today can have a paralyzing effect. During the opening keynote address today at the Gartner Security and Risk Management Summit , Gartner analysts provided insight to empower these security leaders to take action. Tweet this Gartner analysts provided guidance to an audience of more than 3,400 security and risk leaders and practitioners on how to be empowered to adapt their people, processes and technologies to address the old and the new; empowered to transform their approach to risk governance to be more continuous and inclusive; and empowered to scale their security capabilities in other ways than by hiring more people. Much of this empowerment can come from addressing three simple questions: What’s important? What’s dangerous? What’s real? Gartner analysts took the attendees through a series of scenarios to show how these questions can provide clarity, and in each scenario, the in...
