"description":"An Evil Twin is a type of wireless network attack where an attacker sets up a rogue Wi-Fi access point that mimics a legitimate Wi-Fi network. The rogue access point has the same SSID (network name) as the legitimate network, making it difficult for users to distinguish between the two. The attacker's goal is to trick users into connecting to the rogue access point, allowing them to intercept sensitive information, inject malware, or launch other types of attacks.\n\nTypes of Evil Twin Attacks\n--------------------------\n\n* **Captive Portal Attack:** The most common evil twin attack scenario is an attack using Captive Portals, this is a common scenario where an attacker creates a fake captive portal that mimics the legitimate network's login page. The goal is to trick users into entering their credentials, which the attacker can then use to gain access to the network.\n* **Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) Attack:** In this scenario, the attacker intercepts communication between the user's device and the legitimate network. The attacker can then inject malware, steal sensitive information, or modify data in real-time.\n* **SSL Stripping Attack:** The attacker downgrades the user's connection from HTTPS to HTTP, allowing them to intercept sensitive information, such as login credentials or credit card numbers.\n* **Malware Injection:** The attacker injects malware into the user's device, which can then spread to other devices on the network.\n\nHow Evil Twin Attacks are Carried Out\n-------------------------------------\n\n* **Rogue Access Point:** The attacker sets up a rogue access point with the same SSID as the legitimate network. This can be done using a laptop, a portable Wi-Fi router, or even a compromised device on the network.\n* **Wi-Fi Scanning:** The attacker uses specialized software to scan for nearby Wi-Fi networks and identify potential targets.\n* **Network Sniffing:** The attacker uses network sniffing tools to capture and analyze network traffic, allowing them to identify vulnerabilities and intercept sensitive information.\n\nVisit the following resources to learn more:",

"description":"Frustum culling is a standard practice in computer graphics, used in virtually all games to optimize performance by not rendering objects outside of your field of view. Think of your field of view as a frustum, a truncated pyramid shape. The farthest side is called the far clip plane, and the closest side is the near clip plane. Any object in the game that doesn't fall within this frustum is culled, meaning it’s not rendered, to improve performance. This feature comes built-in with Unreal Engine.\n\nYou can also adjust the near and far clip planes to fine-tune culling. For example, if an object is too close to the camera, it may disappear because it crosses the near clip plane threshold. Similarly, objects that are too far away might be culled by the far clip plane. In some cases, distant objects are LOD-ed (Level of Detail), an optimization technique that reduces the detail of the mesh the farther you are from it, and increases detail as you get closer.\n\nFrustum culling is a fundamental technique that is implemented in virtually all modern games to ensure efficient rendering and smooth gameplay.",

"description":"Open GL, also known as Open Graphics Library, is a cross-language, cross-platform API designed to render 2D and 3D vector graphics. As a software interface for graphics hardware, Open GL provides programmers the ability to create complex graphics visuals in detail. It was first developed by Silicon Graphics Inc. in 1992 and quickly became a highly popular tool in the graphics rendering industry. Open GL is widely used in CAD, virtual reality, scientific visualization, information visualization, and flight simulation. It is also used in video games production where real-time rendering is a requirement. The API is designed to work with a broad range of hardware from different manufacturers. Being open-source, Open GL's code capabilities can be extended by anyone in the software community.",
"description":"Metal is a low-level, high-performance, application programming interface (API) developed by Apple. It debuted in iOS 8 and is dedicated to graphics and data-parallel computations. Essentially, it's designed to exploit modern GPU architecture on Apple devices, optimizing performance and power efficiency. This API applies to various platforms, including iOS, macOS, and tvOS. In contrast to high-level APIs like OpenGL, Metal offers a much lower overhead, allowing more direct control over the GPU. For developers, it means that they can squeeze better performance out of the hardware compared to higher-level APIs. With Metal, developers have a much more detailed view and control on the GPU which results in better graphical output and smoother performance.",
