Arindam joins solved.net.in !

Posted by on 5:26 pm in Blog

I am very happy to introduce Arindam Mitra a very esteemed friend and welcome him to solved.net.in ! Arindam is a B.Tech [ Mechanical Engineering ] from IIT Kharagpur and has done his schooling from Don Bosco [ Park Circus ]. A member of Free Software Foundation, Arindam has always been an ardent proponent of Free Libre Open Source Software. Our passion for Programming, Information Technology and practically anything to do with new discoveries has been the foundation of the friendship which is now entering its seventeenth year.

Arindam is the CEO of WRC Technologies, a company specializing in web solutions and Android and iOS development. He has been associated with solved.net.in for a long time now. It was because of his endeavour that I could come up with this wonderful venture of solved.net.in. Had it not been for Arindam, I would not have been able to reach out to all of you. It is of late that he has agreed to officially declare his association in this venture.

Arindam would be instrumental in bringing the applied part of Computer Science to the students, specially the students of ISC, class XII.

We are back!

We worried for decades about WMDs – Weapons of Mass Destruction.
       Now it is time to worry about a new kind of WMDs – Weapons of Mass Disruption.

                                                                                                                ~ John Mariotti

Website hacking has become inevitable. It is now not a matter of “if”, but a question of “when”. Hacking is now a fact of life [ on the cyber highway! ] The mindless mirth of these crackers [ hackers hack, crackers disrupt! ] can very well be compared to the senseless bursting of crackers in the compound of a hospital. Or any other such activities which has become the bane of our modern life.

So we were not that surprised when our beloved solved.net.in fell prey to one such random attack.

hacked

solved.net.in hacked on 18 February 2014

Thanks to one of our students, it was brought to our attention within five minutes. We took immediate steps to restore the site, and in less than 3 minutes we were back online. The security measures that we have in place ensured that none of the data was compromised. We use the fantastic content management framework, WordPress and some awesome plugins that are maintained by a team of exceptional open source coders, who believe in the Free Software movement.

solved.net.in will continue in its mission to provide quality assistance to all the ISC Computer Science students of India. In very near future we will be launching a variety of interesting study materials that will make Computer Science all the more fun and informative! This incident of website cracking by some faceless entity may “disrupt” us [ like a flat tyre of a car ] but the journey will continue.

May the source be with you!

Best of Luck!
