For a web server, it is better to close all the ports that are not being used because the hackers can take advantage and easily get into the system. Here are some examples of Firewalls Software: McAfee, BullGuard ,…

Wireless technologies have transformed our lives greatly. Until a few years back, we needed a wired computer connected to telephonic ports to get internet access. Nowadays, mobile phones are used for super-fast internet, with applications ranging from banking to movie ticketing. This wireless technology helps reduce cost and also increases mobility. Devices are shrinking in terms of their size and are growing in processing speeds. 4G is the fourth generation of broadband mobile technology after…
