MySecurity is a simple application that allows you to command your computer from another device It's pretty much like a remote control in which you can infer commands direcly to the machine.
MySecurity works throught Socket connections that will allow you access your computer just by connecting at the port 8080
using a socket client
.
After running MySecurity from the computer you want to control, run the executable MySecurity file. It will automatically open a port on your computer (port 8080) that will be allowed to receive socket connections from any device on the same network. Once the client connects to MySecurity, it will receive a message with all the available options:
===== MySecurity =====
[1] Shutdown Computer
[2] Reboot Computer
[3] Log out
[0] Exit
> | 1 | 2 | 3 | 0 |
When a option is selected and sent, MySecurity will execute the command on the computer.
No matter what operating system you are using, the command will be executed with no problems, just make sure your firewall or system defender does not affect MySecurity.
You can easily just install and use MySecurity in your computer.
Go to Releases and download one of the binaries available in the Assets section. It is plug & play, just make sure your firewall doesn't block the TCP connection at the port 8080.
Download MySecurity from master.
# Git clone (master branch)
$ git clone https://github.com/FelipeFTN/MySecurity.git
# WGet (latest release)
$ wget https://github.com/FelipeFTN/MySecurity/archive/refs/tags/{tag version}.tar.gz
# Curl (latest release)
$ curl -L https://github.com/FelipeFTN/MySecurity/archive/refs/tags/{tag version}.tar.gz > MySecurity.tar.gz
If you wanna use Curl, or WGet, please substitute the {tag version}
for the latest version from the releases, or any tag you prefer, e.g.:
$ wget https://github.com/FelipeFTN/MySecurity/archive/refs/tags/v0.x.x.tar.gz
# OR
$ wget https://github.com/FelipeFTN/MySecurity/archive/refs/tags/v0.x.x.zip
Extract the compressed file (zip or tar.gz).
In order to build your own application from source, you will need either CMake or Make to execute the Makefile. You will also need GCC installed in your system (if you are in Microsoft Windows, we recommend using MingW).
If you want something easy, execute the file install.sh, it should handle everything for you.
Otherwise, if you are a hard user you can compile by running:
# Generate the building files
$ cmake -B cmake/
# Go to "cmake" directory
$ cd cmake/
# Compile MySecurity
$ make
This process will generate a binary MySecurity or MySecurity.exe file, now you just need to run it.
If you want something REALLY easy, then just run the Makefile:
$ make
This will compile all the files for you automatically and will generate a binary MySecurity or MySecurity.exe file at the bin directory, now you just need to run it.
For this method to work, you will need make command installed into your system, if we are using Microsoft Windows, we highly recommend you to install it with Chocolatey:
$ choco install make
In case you are may having trouble with make on Windows, take a look at this article.
To compile a MySecurity.exe
file from Unix based operating systems, like Linux or Mac.
First, you will need to install mingw-w64:
# Arch Linux & Manjaro
$ sudo pacman -Sy mingw-w64-gcc
# MacOS
$ brew install mingw-w64
# Debian based
$ sudo apt install mingw-w64
# Fedora, CentOS & RedHat based
$ sudo dnf install mingw-w64
Now, just uncomment these two lines from Makefile
:
CC=i686-w64-mingw32-gcc
CFLAGS+= -lws2_32
Finally, simply run make clean && make
to build the source code.
