Firefox is helping it's users maintain the highest level of security through various avenues. And in it's latest offering, Firefox has given it's users the ability to share large file (upto 2.5 GB) with end-to-end encryption.
DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) makes your traffic invisible to third-party network observers, such as ISPs. You can read more about how it work from here. All the major browsers have shown support for this feature by either enabling or on their browsers, or have plans to incorporate it in near future. Here's how you can enable DoH in your favorite browser.
Although Firefox was given the most secured browser award in 2019, we still love Google Chrome don't we? And switching browsers is not easy, especially when we have been using it for a while now. But don't feel guilty about not using the most secured browser, you can still take these steps to ensure that your browser has the optimum level of security.
In the previous post, we learned how to remove password from a VBA macro in Excel, PowerPoint, or Word (both 32- and 64-bit) the hard way. In this post we will talk about how to remove the password using another macro.
VBA macro Developers always add passwords to protect their work. If a client has reached out to you to develop a solution for them, it is obvious that you would add a password to protect it. Why? Because it is your intellectual property! If the client needs to modify the macro, they should ideally reach out to you again to do the same. You can even ensure even user-level access to your VBA macros so that the client cannot distribute it to users beyond what was agreed upon.
But what if you have forgotten the password you have set for the VBA macro that you created for your client? Recreating the macro is unrealistic in terms of budget and timeline. So what then?
This summer, Tor released Snowflake, a tool targeted towards helping users in censored countries connect to the Tor network. But unlike other tools with similar focus, Snowflake does not need to be installed by such users living in oppressive countries that block access to the Tor network. They're meant for those living in free countries, where governments don't block Tor access.
Most of the viewers on my site comes from Reddit, which redirects quality traffic to my site on a regular basis. And like any other website, Reddit too is vulnerable to malicious attacks. So, needless to say that it is a wise idea to backup your Reddit account data on a regular basis. Unfortunately, Reddit does not officially allow you to backup/transfer your Reddit data, except for your subscriptions. What to do then?
Everyday we have to remember hundreds of passwords, both in our personal and professional lives. And it's only human to forget some of them every now and then, as long as we know how to retrieve those passwords or reset them. Resetting passwords for a web service like Gmail, or Facebook is easy. But what about a software, like Excel.
