A secured file upload platform to integrate with my server – does kind exist? [on hold]

Posted on by

I’m reading for awhile on securing my web-file-upload system and thinking on building one my own, but – does one already exist? A secured file upload system that is able to integrate with my own current system? It can be paid and none-paid one.

I am currently using the Spring MVC functionality for uploading files (my purpose is mostly uploading .jpegs) , but could not find it to contain any security measures and looks like I have to implement it all by my own.

Old Rabbit Ears Optimized for Weather Satellite Downlink

Communicating with a satellite seems like something that should take a lot of equipment. A fancy antenna and racks full of receivers, filters, and amplifiers would seem to be the entry-level suite of gear. But listening to a weather satellite with an old pair of rabbit ears and an SDR dongle? That’s a thing too.

There was a time when a pair of rabbit ears accompanied every new TV. Those days are gone, but [Thomas Cholakov (N1SPY)] managed to find one of the old TV dipoles in his garage, complete with 300-ohm twinlead and spade connectors. He put it to …read more

Fake Your ID Photos – the 3D Way

Posted on by

Photographs for identification purposes have strict requirements. Lighting, expression, and framing are all controlled to enable authorities to quickly and effectively use them to identify individuals reliably. But what if you created an entirely fake photograph from scratch? That’s exactly what [Raphael Fabre] set out to do.

With today’s 3D modelling tools, human faces can be created in extreme detail. Using these, [Raphael] set out to create a 3D model of himself, which was then used to render images simulating a passport photograph. Not content to end the project there, [Raphael] put his digital doppelgänger to the test – applying …read more
