Obfuscating Images with Django & Azure Cloud Storage Introduction For a recent project, I developed a Django-based web application that allows users to obfuscate images by embedding executable files within them. The processed images are then stored securely on Azure Blob Storage. This project blends Django’s powerful templating system with Azure’s cloud storage to offer a unique and secure way of handling sensitive data. Features Upload images and executable files via a Django form. Embed executables within images using a custom obfuscation technique. Store and retrieve obfuscated images on Azure Blob Storage. Deobfuscate images, extracting the original files. Secure file handling and cloud storage integration. Setting Up Azure Blob Storage in Django We start by configuring Azure Blob Storage in our Django project. Using dotenv, we securely load credentials from an .env file: ...

Building a Smart Dustbin with IoT Introduction This project involves the development of a Smart Dustbin using Arduino, Python, Kotlin (Android App), and Azure IoT to monitor and manage waste levels in real-time. By integrating sensors, cloud computing, and mobile applications, this system enhances waste management efficiency. Components & Technologies Used Arduino Uno & ESP8266 WiFi Module for sensor data collection. Ultrasonic Sensors to measure garbage levels. Servo Motor to control the bin lid. Python & Tkinter GUI for real-time monitoring. Kotlin Android App for mobile notifications. ThingSpeak & Azure IoT Hub for cloud-based monitoring. Hardware Implementation Arduino Code for Garbage Level Detection & Smart Lid Control The Arduino Uno, paired with an HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor, measures the bin’s fill level. The servo motor automatically opens the lid when an object is detected nearby. ...
