Federated Identity Management (FIM) is a collaboration of different federations coming together for the purpose of sharing each other’s resources and providing a Single Sign-On facility to the end user. Despite the profitability there are certain issues, vulnerabilities and security aspects that hinder the widespread acceptance of the FIM. These security issues include Snooping, Modification, Masquerading, Replay Attacks, Denial of Service, Escalation of Privileges, Brute Force and Phishing. We have also explored Trusted Computing Technologies-Trusted Platform Module and Trusted Network Connect. Based on our analysis we provide a Trusted Computing framework which can be used to mitigate all the obstacles for the better functioning and acceptance of FIM.

 Bitcoin, the term coined by a person or group pseudonymously called Satoshi Nakamoto, is considered the world’s first decentralized digital currency. Since its release in 2009, there has been tremendous growth in market value of Bitcoin, with anonymity and distributed nature removing the need for any central authority being the driving force for its popularity. The technology is relatively new and complex for a layman to understand. However, there has been enough hype about it which has drawn the attention of researchers and nemesis alike to expose vulnerabilities in the system as well as explore the future perspectives of this new concept. This paper analyses major components of Bitcoin and related concepts of Blockchain, highlighting a few security concerns/ motivation to explore the future perspectives of this technology which is being considered analogous to the Internet revolution.

The atomic structure is presented on the basis of the theory of vortex gravitation. The feasibility and calculation of the values of the density and mass of electromagnetic particles are proposed. A calculation is made, which proves that the photon must have mass. In the calculations, some physical characteristics of electromagnetic particles that are accepted by modern physics are refuted.
