Smoker Evolution : From Cigarette To Vape

Assalamualaikum.......for this entry i want to share to you my experience socialize with smoking people that change to vape or e-cigarette.

   Tobacco has been growing wild in the Americas for nearly 8000 years. Around 2,000 years ago tobacco began to be chewed and smoked during cultural or religious ceremonies and events. The first European to discover smoking was Christopher Columbus. (click here for information sources). So smoking has started a long time ago and now it has become a trend in Malaysia. Every where I go, I can see Malaysian smoke a cigarette.

   Vaping or e-cigarette started in Malaysia in 2010 and has become a big evolution in how to consume nicotine in our body, but it just for a while the wave has stopped because the equipment for vaping is too expensive at that time. In 2012 vaping once more become a trend in Malaysia and until 2015 it has become national issues because many smokers has change and use vape to consume nicotine in their body.

   When i ask my friends why you stop smoking and change to vaping, the answer were.. smoking have Tar and vape have zero Tar, Cigarette smoke contains over 4,000 chemicals, including 43 known cancer-causing (carcinogenic) compounds and 400 other toxins. This includes nicotine, tar, and carbon monoxide, as well as formaldehyde, ammonia, hydrogen cyanide, arsenic, and DDT, In vaping there are only four main ingredients in every bottle of e-juice. The first one being glycerin, which is an organic compound found in vegetables, smoking make our breath and attire smells and vaping doesn't cause such a thing, the cost is smaller than smoking a cigarette and Vaping is more safe than smoking a cigarette.

e-juice, Mod, Kayfun lite tank and battery

   The technology has made vaping very successful because to start vaping you just need a mod, tank, e- juice and battery. The mod contain a chip that control the firing from watt and to detect the coil ohm to get the accurate firing. The technology of the mod is advance because mod model Smok Xcube Bt 50 can connect with smartphone to update the chip software and to control the menu. The tank has components such as chimney, coil base, cover and tip to control the amount of  e-juice. The battery give power to the mode to make it functional. The e-juice contains flavoring such as fruity flavors or creamy flavor and we can choose what we like.

   The conclusion I can make for smoking and vaping were, it is a choice the individual can make, if you want to smoke you can start smoking, if you want to vape, you can start vaping, but better if you don't start this type of habit because it can affect your health.

thank you for reading guys adios.... 




 

Apple Golden Age and Steve Job Enchanted


Assalamualaikum......

Hi again guys...I want to share about a well known brand in the world and their products is the leading products in technology world....

   Being a brand that is known to the world is not easy and fast. Apple Inc. become a brand that is worth at least higher than other brands like Samsung, Sony, Toyota and others. Apple Inc. is a company engaged in the field of computer technology in the Silicon Valley, the Cupertino, California on January 3, 1977. 

   Before Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs founded Apple, Steve Wozniak was a hacker. Steve Wozniak's versatility is evident since he was a child who was very fond of studying related algebra and mathematical algorithms. Steve Wozniak ability is certainly very mean in his life because both Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs during his youth belonging to the group of people with the economy down the middle stage. With the brilliant of Steve Job brain, he lead Apple Inc. into an incredible era where dominate all technology or mobile industry, especially within 2000 to 2013

   Apple vs Samsung: 2012: Apple wins $1 billion victory over Samsung
In a verdict that would have warmed the heart of the late Apple CEO Steve Jobs, a federal jury on Friday handed Apple a resounding legal victory in its bitter patent war with Samsung, ordering the South Korean tech giant to pay more than $1 billion in damages for "willfully" copying the iPhone and iPad.
Legal experts say the jury's finding of willful infringement enables Apple to seek to triple the billion-dollar damage award, already believed to be an unprecedented judgment in a patent trial. The verdict also sends a threatening message to Samsung and other Apple competitors in the mobile-phone and tablet industry that use Google's Android operating system, potentially making it harder for them to compete with the Cupertino-based tech giant in the multibillion-dollar industry.

   During the trial, Apple depicted Samsung as an unrepentant copier, scrambling in the aftermath of the iPhone's 2007 release to develop products that shared the same smartphone features and could be sold at a lower cost. Samsung, Apple insisted, cheated by copying the iPhone and later the iPad, mimicking the designs so much that Google warned Samsung the devices looked too much alike.
Apple urged the jury to award at least $2.5 billion in damages for selling tens of millions of what were branded "accused" smartphones and tablets.

   Samsung, meanwhile, portrayed Apple as a company trying to stifle competition by using lawyers and the courts to assert patent rights without legal justification. Samsung denied copying Apple in products such as the Galaxy smartphones and tablets, and told the jury that Apple's iPhone and iPad were part of an evolution in the industry, not the unprecedented innovations Apple made them out to be.

So that all guys, thank you for reading... until next time...thank you.

Threats In Information Security.



Assalamualaikum and hi guys...




    I want to share to you about my opinions regarding threats in information security trends. Base on year 2014 in information security circles, it seems that there are never-ending stream of cyber-threats and data breaches, affecting banks, retailers, gaming networks, governments and more. After doing some review about this topic, i found that there are some trends that can effect the Information security nowadays.


    The first trends is Cyber crime. As we all know, internet has become very important in our life because we use internet in everything, for example manage our schedule or daily life, manage business, playing games and many mores. So internet has become a good sources and attractive hunting ground for terrorist, criminal, hackers and many more to make money. 
    Cyber criminals can take information and use against us and can cause disruption and even bring down corporation and government system through online attacks. We need to know that Cyber criminals were expert and highly skilled and also equipped with very high end or modern equipment, if we a using 20th century systems they are using 21th century tools to take advantage on our systems. So in 2015, we need to prepare for something impossible to happen so that we are ready to counter the Cyber crime.



   The second trends is privacy and regulation, most country or government have created or in process creating regulations that impose conditions on the safeguard and use Personally Identifiable Information (PII). In addiction the government need to protect their privacy and need to treat privacy as both a compliance and business risk issues, in order to maintain their reputation and loss of customers due to information breaches. 




   The last trends is  the threats from third-party providers. Networking, and supply chains has become vital and very important components and has become the core of business of every organizations. But we need to remember, the larger the business, the larger the threats will be. The security department has become more concerned about how vulnerable they are to risk and threats because of the third party providers. Many information are shared with the suppliers, and when the information is shared the direct control is lost, it means the information can be given to anybody to take advantage to the organization. To manage this problem, the organization need to managed a well-structured supply chain information risk assessment approach can provide a detailed, step by step approach to portion an otherwise daunting projects into manageable components.




   In year 2015, we need to evolve from promoting awareness of the problem to creating solutions and protect important information. so we need to find solutions, for examples install a antivirus for personal notebook or smart phone is a great step to avoid this problems. The organizations also needs to use the most high end technology to improves their business process and information.


Thats all from me, thank you for reading....
