Blocking Ransomware Attacks with Anthony Cusimano

Ransomware attacks involve the deployment of malware that blocks access to a user’s or organization’s computer files by encrypting them. The attackers then demand a ransom payment in exchange for the decryption key that will restore access to the files. These attacks are often directed at governments and corporations, and can be costly. Veeam is The post Blocking Ransomware Attacks with Anthony Cusimano appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.

The Future of HTTP with Nick Shadrin and Roman Arutyunyan

The Hypertext Transfer Protocol, or HTTP, is used to load webpages using hypertext links, and it’s the foundation of the web. Tim Berners-Lee famously created HTTP version 0.9 in 1989, and defined the essential behavior of a client and a server. Version 1.0 was eventually finalized in 1996, and its secure variant called HTTPS is The post The Future of HTTP with Nick Shadrin and Roman Arutyunyan appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.
