Implimenting Security Measures In A Program?
Nov 12, 2008
I am writing a parental control type program for use on 2K, XP, and Vista.There are two specific features I need to address, but I am at a loss as where to begin or how to impliment them.Feature 1: Prevent anyone except the program's administrators (2 designated within the program) from modifying the programs directory and/or its contents.Feature 2: Prevent anyone except the program's administrators from stopping, killing, or ending the program.Also, which would be a better way to start the program with the system, as a process or with the registry

What I've decided to start working on is pretty much a personal project but something I may use in my UNI course in due time. I'm creating a security program with a set of access codes (yes I am a bit of a star trek fan) - 4 in total to be exact. I want to be able to use an Encrypted key file in form of a simple notepad created text file to update the codes at any due time. All I'm looking to do is write the access codes to the text file (say for a friend to use the program), Encrypt the file through the program and be able to also decrypt to obtain the new access codes on demand also via the same program. Once decrypted the codes can be read and verified if the user has entered each one correctly. I could hard code the access codes into the program but would rather do it the way I've thought of.
Back in the days of the old VB6 there was a simple method but for some reason that doesnt work any more. What I guess I'm looking to do is have 4 text fields where 4 digit access codes are typed into, have the program take them and encrypt each one is then written to the text file. Hoping that will make it a bit clearer what I'm trying to achieve as I think I made it sound like I want to encrypt the text file after the info has been written to it, which is of course one option so wouldn't mind know how to do that too!

When I send a mail from my external program through Outlook, then I get the security warning.
I've tried bypassing it with secman and redemption, but both these tools doesn't allow the app to be "Any CPU".
I need the app to be Any CPU because it must be x64 on client and x86 in design (since designer doesn't allow inherited forms on x64).
So how would you go around Outlook security?
Should I write some kind of TCP-listener-Outlook-Addin and then send a TCPIP from client with mail info?

After upgrading code to VS2010, the error "MSB3134: The permission set requested by the application exceeded the permissions allowed by the Internet or Intranet zones. Select Full Trust or to continue using partial trust, define your custom permission set in the Security Page of the Project Designer. Bentley Software Loader". The same code ran fine in VS 2008

I have created a security program that monitors the keystokeswebsitesprocesses... I want to FIRST ask if this is a legal question; for, my purpose in this program is security reasons (eg. following up on employees to make sure that they are doing what they are paid to do. They all know this is running, and have been warned not to go to sites and enter information they do not want reviewed).
Second, I want this program to be hidden so that techy persons cannot go into task manager and end the process, then go on to some porn site! How could I make this app hidden, or at the very least make it 'un-end-able' from the task manager?

I need some help in the creation of a program to generate a security code based on the current date. I need to create something that first multiplies the MMDDYY (ie X=MM * DD * YY) then also adds the MMDDYY then finds the remainder and then multiplies but a specified number. I would like to create a small program that sits in the system tray with this code displayed. The code will always need to be 6 characters, so I might need to pad it with zeros. It has been years since I took basic VB, and I am really rusty.

We have a web app that is using forms security.One of the options includes the ability to print an html page to PDF. We're currently evaluating different products like PdfMetamorphosis, but I believe all of them will have this issue.The client makes a request for the pdf by clicking a link button. The code for the button instantiates the PDF builder and passes it a url to convert. However, the URL is behind our forms authentication. Which means that the resulting PDF is nothing but a login page.
Unfortunately, we need the user information in order to verify acccess to the printed page (among other reasons). Which means I can't just allow access to everyone to that folder.So I need one of three possible solutions.
1) I need a way to give the PdfMetamorphosis component the authorization ticket to pass on in it's request.
2) I need an html to pdf component that will do this.
3) Something else?
I don't think the first one is possible and I haven't been able to find a html to pdf component that takes this into consideration.

I can use the c110 cam and one of the 270 versions at same time to get two seperate displays but when I try to usetwo of the 270 cams at same time which both show in device manager, I get "camera in use by another application" even though there are two cams (270's)and I reference them both seperately from a populated combo box containig all media devices present.will need to use all of the same type of cam for this app which will have from 4 to 16 or more cameras viewing and or recording at the same time. If there were 16 slightly different versions of the same cam which would give me different drivers, It would be fine but as you can probably imagine, not acceptable.

I am developing and application in vb.net winxp+ (windows xp upwards). The application has to receive backup data from clients software located at different pc over the Internet. but am concerned about security of this application on the Internet. what would be the best way to implement security in vb.net 2008 to make sure that the data is not sniffed or interfere with?
am thinking of encrypting the data before sending, saving it that way until it need to be viewed before decrypting. what type of encryption would you suggest? Is there any other way you would suggest this data be sent?

recently discovered the My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile method and would love to use it to download files from a website (https://www...). I can include a username and password in the DownloadFile parameter list,but will it send the password in plain text? If so, is there a way to send an encrypted password?
There seem to be many ways to download files. What are the advantages or typical uses of each?

I'm working with vb.net in Visual Studio 2010, I have a method which writes entries in eventlog, this work fine in Windows XP but did not in Windows 7, here it throws a security exception.I allready know that this problem is because the user who exectues this assembly does not have permissions to write the registry, so my question is if does not exist some way to give permissions on the fly, something like declarative permissions or something
like that....this is my code:
Public Shared Sub Loguear(ByVal xsSource As String, ByVal xsMessage As String, ByVal xeEventType As EventLogEntryType, _
ByVal xsLogName As String)[code].....

I am trying to create a VB.NET app that will capture failed windows logins without having to read from the security log. I know I can do ManagementEventWatcher and watch forWin32_LogonSession. But this only gives you successful logins. Is there anyway to do this? I figure I am just missing the correct class that will do this.

I am building a program and I want to distribute the program to many clients. In order to inhibit the unauthorized distribution of my program I wrote some "encryption code" that uses the MAC address of the PC that the program is installed. I give the serial number of my program (which is created by me after the client gives me the MAC of his PC), the user types this code the first time he runs the program,after that is stored to registry

I am building this tool for my 2 home computers. Its a client/server program, which is pretty easy to program. However, as with almost all program, you encounter an error now and then. However with this error I am completely clueless to what the problem is. Basically, when I connect from my client to the server, it connects and all. I can send command lines which the server then adds to the log. I have also made a command called /screenshot which basically just takes a screenshot and send it over the connection (so I wont have to run to my 2 computers constantly xD). Anyways, the thing is, that is working fine but This other code I'm making to make it list all the Drives and the first sub-folders inside the drives, disconnects me >_> I can send the screenshot line, that works fine, but when I send the 'listfolders' command, it just disconnects me. When I go back to my other computer it just says disconnected. And it doesn't even execute the given strings. I tested it to make it send a msg box when DCing, that worked fine, but listing those drives and stuff inside a TXT or List box didn't seem to work :<Also. this code works when I make it execute it on startup, but it wont execute it when its sent by my client. So my only guess is that Microsoft has made some sort of security precaution that made you unable to make programs that could have anything to do with the folders, over a TCP connection or something :s Thats my only guess, but perhaps you see whats wrong?
