HardSploit: A Framework To Audit IoT Devices Security.
IoT or the Internet Of Things is gaining popularity rapidly and at the same time their security is also becoming a matter of concern. Recently there has been reports about various IoTs being vulnerable to hacking,like hacking baby monitors,Hacking Smart Cars,Hacking Gas Stations & Blowing them up and even Smart Fridges which can lead to compromising Gmail accounts. So far there is no comprehensive tool dedicated specially for auditing the security of Internet Of things.
What is HardSploit?
HardSploit is an all-in-one hacking tool for hardware security audits,especially for the IoT devices. It is a complete tool box (Hardware + Software),a Framework which aims to:
- Facilitate the audit of electronic systems for industry ‘security’ workers (Consultant, Auditor, Pentesters, product designer etc.)
- Increase the level of security (and trust!) of new communicating products designed by industry
According to the creators HardSploit is a tool with software and electronic aspects. They called it a framework because that is a technical and modular platform (using FPGA) to perform security tests on electronic communications interfaces of embedded devices.

Why Memory Optimizers and RAM Boosters Are Worse Than Useless
Many companies want to sell you “memory optimizers,” often as part of “PC optimization” programs. These programs are worse than useless — not only will they not speed up your computer, they’ll slow it down.
Such programs take advantage of inexperienced users, making false promises about boosting performance. In reality, your computer knows how to manage RAM on its own. It will use RAM to increase your computer’s performance — there’s no point in having RAM sit empty.
Is Your Computer’s RAM Filling Up? That’s Good!
Memory optimizers are based on a misunderstanding. You may look at your computer’s RAM and see it filling up — for example, you may have 4 GB of RAM and see that 3 GB is full with only 1 GB to spare. That can be surprising to some people — look how bloated modern versions of Windows are! How are you ever going to run additional programs with so little memory available?
In reality, modern operating systems are pretty good at managing memory on their own. That 3 GB of used RAM doesn’t necessarily indicate waste. Instead, your computer uses your RAM to cache data for faster access. Whether it’s copies of web pages you had open in your browser, applications you previously opened, or any other type of data you might need again soon, your computer hangs onto it in its RAM. When you need the data again, your computer doesn’t have to hit your hard drive — it can just load the files from RAM.

10 Reasons Today’s Students NEED Technology in the Classroom
Technology is everywhere, entwined in almost every part of our lives. It affects how we shop, socialize, connect, play, and most importantly learn. With their great and increasing presence in our lives it only makes sense to have mobile technology in the classroom. Yet there are some schools that are delaying this imminent future of using technology in the classroom as the valuable learning tool it is.
Here is a list of ten reasons your school should implement technology in the classroom.
1) If used correctly, will help prepare students for their future careers, which will inevitably include the use of wireless technology
2) Integrating technology into the classroom is definitely a great way to reach diversity in learning styles.
3) It gives students the chance to interact with their classmates more by encouraging collaboration.
