I am curious about finding the cost to a big bank to process something like a bank transfer from one account to another...

I am thinking about my bank, where I have two accounts, where I may move a few hundred dollars from one account to another.

Is the cost less than a penny for such a transaction for a website or an iPhone app to make such a transfer? I assume there are overhead costs where auditors review blocks of transactions, but I am not asking about that. Just the marginal cost for a hosted and highly secure website to process a transaction.

Does anyone have an idea about this?

I need a web service to remain secret and would use CloudFare or a similar technology to prevent DDoS attacks. Aside from DDoS, what other types of attacks are possible?

I assume my web service domain would be totally hidden, but need to be sure there is no other known threat to it.

Thanks

I have supported various web services over many years but need to clearly what is meant by the term "web API."

Please give me a short description so I can judge if I have worked with this or not.

Thanks

I would like to build web portal to collect horse racing information in USA only. Anyone know where I can get the database or API ?

I have a C# WCF Service which is hosted in IIS 8.5 and has a number of web services. One of these web services is called MobileRegistration and when called from the Client works correctly (see below)

using (var svc = new DCRulesServiceRef1.TransactionClient())
{string returnval = svc.MobileRegistration(enterpriseId, userId, deviceId, qrcode);}

Select all Open in new window

However I also need to be able to call the webservice MobileRegistration directly via a URL without having to go through the client. The URL I created is as follows

http://xx.xx.xx.xxx/DCRules2Alias/Service.svc/MobileRegistration/?&userId=TESTUSER&enterpriseId=TESTENTERPRISE&deviceId=TESTDEVICE&qrcode=TESTQRCODE
This fails with HTTP400 Webpage cannot be found.

http://xx.xx.xx.xxx/DCRules2Alias/Service.svc  does return the TransactonService Service page successfully.  So why can it not find my service. Is the format of the URL incorrect for a WCF web service ? Below is some of the relevant code and WSDL. Appreciate if someone can point out what I am doing wrong

regards
Pat

UseCase 1 :-  Http Method : Get , expected json is {"id":1, "effecitveDate" :"2017-08-13 08:10"} - working fine

UseCase 2 :- Http Method : Get, expecting a list of objects i.e. ["id":1, "effecitveDate" :"2017-08-13 08:10"} ,"id":2, "effecitveDate" :"2017-08-16 08:10"}

but I am getting  date like ["id":1, "effectiveDate": [
            2017,
            8,
            13,
            8,
            10
        ]},
"id":2, "effectiveDate": [
            2017,
            8,
            16,
            8,
            10]}
]

How to solve this date issue.

I have a client who's server is being the subject of repeated intrusion attempts over the last 8 days.  All the source IP's whois back to Amazon Web Services.

Do Amazon follow these up with the user of the IP or do they pursue it in any way?  The attacks are getting more frequent.

i am new to rest api.
i want to implement REST API for my project which is developed with Spring framework.
i want to implement  REST API in best way.

Please provide sugggistions for design and development.

Hi Experts,

I did a Nessus scan and received a high vulnerability finding and have a few questions.

This result was from scanning our domain controller(wind 2012 R2).

First how did a certificate get generated when we do not use IIS on this DC? as i do not understand why a certificate would need to be generated on the DC or how it would be? We do not have a CA.



SSL Certificate Cannot Be Trusted

Description

The server's X.509 certificate cannot be trusted. This situation can occur in three different ways, in which the chain of trust can be broken, as stated below :

 - First, the top of the certificate chain sent by the server might not be descended from a known public certificate authority. This can occur either when the top of the chain is an unrecognized, self-signed certificate, or when intermediate certificates are missing that would connect the top of the certificate chain to a known public certificate authority.

 - Second, the certificate chain may contain a certificate that is not valid at the time of the scan. This can occur either when the scan occurs before one of the certificate's 'notBefore' dates, or after one of the certificate's 'notAfter' dates.

 - Third, the certificate chain may contain a signature that either didn't match the certificate's information or could not be verified. Bad signatures can be fixed by getting the certificate with the bad signature to be re-signed by its issuer. Signatures that could not be verified are the…

Hello,
What other programming languages for web service development?  Which is better PHP or html?

The code below is executed when a user clicks a button.
It asks the user for a username/password and tries to upload a file to a webservice.
When the username/password combination is correct, everything works fine. But when the user types an incorrect username/password combination, this functions crashes. ( which is normal, because authentication failed...) .
After such a crash, the code no longer works, even after rerunning the same procedure this time with the correct username/password combination.

The only solution I found is to restart the whole application... There has to be a better way?
Does the HTTPRIO object cache my incorrect username/password? Or .... ?

RIO := THTTPRIO.Create(nil);
RIO.HTTPWebNode.UserName :=Username;
RIO.HTTPWebNode.Password :=PassWord;
webserver := GetCRS( True, '' , RIO );

 // get file to upload and encode it in base64
 myFileToUpload := TByteDynArray( TEncoding.UTF8.GetBytes( xml.XML.Text ) );

// create upload file request object
myUploadFileRequest := UploadFileRequest.Create;
myUploadFileRequest.UploadFile := PayLoadType( myFileToUpload );

// upload file to server
 myUploadFileResponse := webserver.uploadFile_A2A( myUploadFileRequest ); --> Crash

I have an XML file that when passed through SOAP UI returns a proper response as XML file. I need to create an application to pass the XML and recuperate the response. I tried searching but many say REST web service where they using only post/get.

Please send me some sample code and/or tutorials.
