Instant authentication against an
existing web application

Instant authentication against an
existing web application 07/14/2004 07:03 PM

I was thinking today about the problem of querying an existing authentication database from a new application - exactly the kind of thing web services are useful for. Then I realised that any web application protected by HTTP Basic authentication already provides a standard API against which queries can be run. Here's the Python code to do exactly that:

def auth_against_url(url, username, password):
    import urllib2, base64
    request = urllib2.Request(url)
    b64 = base64.encodestring('%s:%s' % (username, password))[:-1]
    request.add_header('Authorization', 'Basic %s' % b64)
    try:
        urllib2.urlopen(request)
    except urllib2.HTTPError:
        return False
    return True

To check a username and password against an existing application's user database, just call the above function with the URL of a page within the existing application as the first argument. The function returns True if the username and password are valid, and False otherwise. It doesn't get much simpler than that.

A nice side effect of using Python's standard library modules is that they transparently support HTTPS, so authentication can take place over an encrypted channel provided the target application supports it.

UK May Require ISPs To Tag Porn

UK May Require ISPs To Tag Porn 06/07/2004 11:45 PM
Following the news that BT is going to make an effor t to block all child porn, there's news that UK telecom regulator Ofcom is floating an idea to have ISPs tag content as being potentially "adult" in nature to make it easier to filter out. It's not hard to figure out the many reasons why this plan sounds like both a waste of time and money. ISPs are never going to be able to effectively tag the content. For all the filters already out there, none of them work all that well. Having people sit there and actually review the content is more effective than any automated system, but it's also slow, expensive, and very, very subjective.

Define Spyware Or Just Enforce Existing
Laws? 09/13/2004 09:56 PM
The question over exactly how spyware should be defined isn't exactly new. However, Mark Rasch's latest column at SecurityFocus picks apart common spyware definitions to make you wonder if it's useful at all to define what spyware is. Instead, he suggests (as have others before< /a>) that the real issue isn't in defining and outlawing spyware, but simply enforcing existing laws that already make most of the worst offenders illegal by way of laws against fraud. Of course, that won't happen, because politicians want to make sure they're seen as doing something to make their constituents' lives better -- and a law against spyware (just like the mostly useless law against spam before it) is good for publicity, even if it does little to solve any real problems.

Aggregators Counts Require a Close Look

Aggregators Counts Require a Close Look 06/08/2004 05:14 PM
Aggregators and resellers of hotspot access are likely to rise to more prominence as roaming becomes de rigeur, but how many locations do they offer, anyway? Three companies dominate hotspot aggregation and reselling: iPass, GoRemote (formerly GRIC), and Boingo Wireless. The former two work almost entirely with large corporations, offering a combination of dial-up, wired Ethernet (in hotel rooms and elsehwere), and Wi-Fi hotspots. Boingo resells just hotspot access. None of the three build infrastructure; Boingo does offer turnkey hotspots for venues that want to be Boingo-only locations. A question has been raised many times over the last several months about how hotspot operators and aggregators count their locations. Even companies that don't resell, like SBC, have adopted terminology that isn't entirely clear. SBC talks about 20,000 access points and 6,000 locations over a few years--but why mention access points or individual pieces of hardware at all? To produce a comprehensive list and a spot check of counts across each aggregator, I downloaded the free client software either directly from the company, in Boingo and iPass's case, or through a reseller that provides up-to-date listings, in the case of GoRemote. A few days ago, I updated the listings for all the software. I was able to extract the directory information for iPass and GoRemote; it's stored in plain text in a clearly labeled file. Boingo uses a database structure that's password protected, and so I turned to their Web site's location finder to get accurate results. First, let's look at how each company states their current pool of hotspots venues. The tricky starting point is that many hotel locations that are aggregated by Wi-Fi-only Boingo are, in fact, mostly or entirely Ethernet based. Newer or revamped installations typically feature Wi-Fi in common areas and Ethernet to the room, although more hotels are switching to or choosing all Wi-Fi. So you can't entirely split out wired from wireless locations. iPass states that worldwide they have over 10,000 Wi-Fi hotspot and Ethernet broadband locations. Boingo Wireless notes that they have 6,000 locations under contract, and 3,300 live worldwide. GoRemote says it connects to 7,800 Wi-Fi hotspots in 45 countries and territories and 1,391 Hotel Ethernet locations in 27 countries. Next, I took all of GoRemote and iPass's information and loaded into a flat database fielded by their particular values so that I could examine apples-to-apples information. I used Boingo's Web site and...

TV over broadband will come from
existing satellite and cable brands,
says Analysys 09/24/2004 03:29 AM
TV content aggregation is not a business for network operators, who will do better to form partnerships with satellite and cable operators to sell TV over broadband. Gross margins on TV can be as low as 20% but operators need TV services to compete with triple-play competitors. Fixed broadband (BB) operators providing TV reduce the net present value (NPV) of their business model over the first five years, according to Analysys calculations for this report. Gambling games are the most profitable entertainment option for network operators. [PRWEB Sep 24, 2004]
