Hati-Hati Melayari Intenet

SERINGKALI kita melihat pautan-pautan di laman web atau video yang menggunakan imej-imej seksi ketika melayari laman sosial kegemaran seperti Facebook. Ayat-ayat yang digunakan pula berbaur seks dan sangat jelas untuk difahami bagi menambahkan lagi keinginan seseorang untuk melihatnya.

Terdorong oleh nafsu, butang diklik tetapi tiada apa yang berlaku. Sebenarnya tanpa disedari, anda telah diserang dengan aktiviti phishing. Phishing adalah cubaan untuk mendapatkan maklumat sensitif pengguna yang dimasukkan ke dalam komputer peribadi tanpa disedari.

Aktiviti tersebut semakin kerap dapat dilihat di laman-laman sosial sejajar dengan kenaikan kadar penembusan Internet terutama laman sosial di Malaysia. Menurut syarikat yang menjalankan kajian pemasaran Internet, comScore, Malaysia adalah negara kedua paling tinggi aktiviti penembusan rangkaian sosial di Asia Tenggara iaitu sebanyak 91 peratus selepas Filipina.

Link jahat

 
Tambahan pula, menurut Peneraju Perniagaan Norton rantau Asia Selatan, Symantec, Effendy Ibrahim, Laporan Jenayah Siber Norton 2010 menemui 65 peratus pengguna internet di Malaysia tidak meletakkan seting akaun laman sosial mereka kepada tahap paling tinggi.

“Ia menjadikan informasi lebih mudah dilihat pada bila-bila masa. Selain itu, kajian turut menemui kebanyakan penjenayah siber menggunakan laman sosial sebagai tempat menghantar link ringkas ke laman web yang berniat jahat,” ulasnya lagi.

Link-link ringkas itu dianggap berniat jahat kerana ia akan membawa pelayar Internet ke laman web yang berbeza seperti dipaparkan, manakala destinasi sebenar link tersebut disembunyikan daripada pengetahuan pelayar Internet. Kebanyakan link tersebut menggunakan paparan dan imej yang seksi bagi menarik pelayar Internet supaya mengklik link ringkas tersebut.

Tambah Effendy, dalam tempoh masa tiga bulan pada tahun 2010, dua pertiga link-link jahat itu berada dalam paparan News Feed laman sosial, manakala 73 peratus daripadanya telah diklik sebanyak 11 kali atau lebih. “Ia membuktikan penggunaan link-link yang dipos itu sangat efektif,” ujarnya ringkas.

Sehingga bulan Mac 2011, kata Effendy, CyberSecurity Malaysia telah mengenalpasti sekurang-kurang 900 laman phishing yang menyasarkan kepada institusi kewangan. Tujuannya adalah untuk mendapatkan maklumat perbankan dan laporan mendapati secara purata sebanyak 260,000 identiti telah didedahkan pada tahun 2010.

Dakwa Effendy lagi, dalam pemerhatian mereka, informasi kad kredit yang berharga itu didagangkan di pasaran gelap online pada harga serendah 30 sen perdata sahaja. Jenayah siber secara dalam talian akan meningkat setiap tahun dan sukar dihapuskan sama sekali. Symantec telah mengesan sebanyak 286 juta ancaman baru pada tahun 2010. Ia bersamaan sembilan ancaman baru untuk setiap saat sepanjang tahun.

Jenis link

 
Sementara itu, Setiausaha Persatuan Pembekal Kandungan Mudah Alih Malaysia (MMCP), Johary Mustapha, 33, berkata, terdapat dua jenis link yang sering dipapar dalam laman sosial atau sesawang seseorang itu. “Kedua-duanya bersifat mengelirukan dengan paparan wanita seksi atau berbentuk soalan kuiz tetapi berbeza tahap bahaya. Salah satunya adalah semata-mata bertujuan untuk pengiklanan sahaja. Ia dapat dikesan apabila arahan akhir yang diberi adalah memasukkan nombor telefon sebagai pengesahan,” ulasnya ketika dihubungi Infiniti baru-baru ini.

Menurut Johary, pautan itu dilakukan oleh syarikat-syarikat yang dianggap sebagai kreatif memanipulasi orang ramai supaya melawat laman web mereka. Tambahnya, link sebegitu tidak akan merosakkan atau mendatangkan bahaya kepada pengguna jika ditekan berbanding dengan jenis pautan yang lagi satu.

Pautan kedua dianggap merbahaya kerana ia menyebabkan gangguan Adware walaupun masih menggunakan teknik yang sama sebagai tarikan. Link tersebut boleh dikesan apabila setiap kali pelayar Internet menekan butang pautan untuk menonton video atau sebagainya tetapi, tiada apa yang berlaku.

Malah, dalam sesetengah pautan, ia mengkehendaki pengguna memuat naik perisian atau fail dengan alasan jika menonton video akan menjadi lebih cepat. “Serangan Adware sangat berbeza dengan virus, ia tidak akan memberi kesan kepada komputer atau telefon bimbit tetapi, berkemampuan mengumpul semua data yang pengguna masukkan,” katanya.

Data-data seperti kata laluan untuk Log In laman sosial, kata kunci, nombor akaun bank yang lebih dikenali sebagai Cookies boleh dikumpul dan dihantar kepada individu yang mencipta link tersebut. Ujar Johary lagi, pengguna dinasihat supaya berhati-hati dengan arahan memuat naik fail yang mempunyai nama domain .exe dan .bat kerana apabila sesuatu perisian secara tidak sengaja dipasang, pengambilan data menjadi lebih mudah. “Serangan Adware boleh dikesan apabila setiap kali laman web dibuka, amaran Pop-up akan muncul,” ulasnya lagi.

Bagaimanapun, Johary menambah bagi perbankan internet, tahap keselamatannya tinggi hingga ke tahap dua atau tiga seperti memerlukan pengguna membuat pengesahan melalui telefon bimbit.

ISLAMIC METHOD OF SLAUGHTERING AN ANIMAL

Research: Islamic Slaughtering and Western method of Slaughtering.

Let’s begin with a small introduction with the term HALAAL

What is Halaal ( ﻝﻼﺣ )?

Halal is an Arabic word meaning lawful or permitted. The opposite of halal is HARAAM (ﻡﺍﺮﺣ ), which means unlawful or prohibited. Halal and haram are universal terms that apply to allfacets of life. However, we will use these terms only in relation to food products, meat products, cosmetics, personal care products, pharmaceuticals, food ingredients, and food contact materials.

While many things are clearly halal or haram, there are some things which are not clear. Further information is needed to categorize them as halal or haram. Such items are often referred to asmashbooh, which means doubtful or questionable.

All foods are considered halal except the following (which are haram):
Swine/Pork and its by-products – Read more on WHY PORK IS PROHIBITED
Animals improperly slaughtered or dead before slaughtering
Alcoholic drinks and intoxicants Carnivorous animals, birds of prey and certain other animals Foods contaminated with any of the above products,

Foods containing ingredients such as gelatin, enzymes, emulsifiers, and flavors are questionable (mashbooh), because the origin of the seingredients is not known.

Let’s now move into the topic.

The Islamic practice of slaughtering animals by means of a sharp cut to the front of the neck has frequently come under attack by some animal rights activists as being a form of animal cruelty, the claim being that it is a painful in human method of killing animals. In the West, it is required by law to stun the animals with a shot to the head before the slaughter, supposedly to render the animal unconscious and to prevent it from reviving before it is killed so as not to slow down the movement of the processing line. It is also used toprevent the animal from feeling pain before it dies.

German Research Studies Pain,

It therefore may come as a surprise to those who have made such acclimations to learn of the results of a study carried out by Professor Wilhelm Schulzeand his colleague Dr. Hazim at the School of Veterinary Medicine, Hannover University in Germany. The study: ‘Attempts to Objectify Pain and Consciousness in Conventional (captive boltpistol stunning) and Ritual (halal, knife) Methods of Slaughtering Sheep and Calves’ concludes that Islamic slaughtering is the most humane method of slaughter and that captive bolt stunning, practiced in the West, causes severe pain to the animal.

In the study, several electrodes were surgicallyimplanted at various points of the skull of allanimals, touching the surface of the brain. Theanimals were allowed to recover for several weeks. Some animals were then slaughtered by making a swift, deep incision with a sharp knife on the neck cutting the jugular veins and thecarotid arteries as well as the trachea andesophagus (Islamic method). Other animals werestunned using a Captive Bolt Pistol (CBP). During the experiment, an electroencephal ograph (EEG) and anelectrocardiogram (ECG) recorded the condition of the brain and the heart of all animals during the course of slaughter and stunning.

The results were as follows:

I – Islamic Method When you slaughter in Islamic way the blood is drained from the flesh, where as other method ofkilling clots the blood and 45 percent of the blood remains in the flesh, hence eating such meat is highly dagerous to health, especially kids.

1. The first three seconds from the time of Islamic slaughter as recorded on the EEG did not show any change from the graph before slaughter, thus indicating that the animal did not feel any painduring or immediately after the incision.

2. For the following 3 seconds, the EEG recorded acondition of deep sleep – unconsciousness. This is due to the large quantity of blood gushing out from the body.

3. After the above-mentioned 6 seconds, the EEG recorded zero level, showing no feeling of pain atall.

4. As the brain message (EEG) dropped to zero level, the heart was still pounding and the body convulsing vigorously (A reflex action of the spinal cord) driving a maximum amount of blood from the body thus resulting in hygienic meat for the consumer.
