With me today is Dinah Davis, vice-president of research and development at Arctic Wolf. In a few minutes we’ll delve into one item that’s been in the news. But first a review of what happened in the last seven days: Hate getting robotic calls on your phone? The U.S. Federal Communications Commission has given you a bit of revenge. This week it fined two Texas-based telemarketers $225 million for running an automated phone scam that spoofed the phone numbers of real insurance companies. Their servers made millions of robocalls a day. In addition to going after scammers in the U.S. the agency also issued cease and desist letters this week to robocall companies in the United Kingdom., and six firms here in Canada. says Russian President Vladimir Putin authorized Russian government organizations to try and undermine American public confidence in last November’s elections. However, unlike 2016 these efforts didn’t include attempts to get into the election infrastructure. Iran also ran a misinformation campaign to undercut President Trump’s chances of re-election. The report concluded the registration and voting process itself was untouched by foreign actors. A teenager believed to be the leader of a group that hacked Twitter accounts of people including celebrities last summer to spread a bitcoin scam is going to jail. The teen pleaded guilty to four charges in a Florida court and will serve three years in a facility for juveniles. Meanwhile a judge in Atlanta sentenced a...
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift of God, which is why we call it the present. – Bill Keane As junior web developers and web designers in the industry, one of the biggest challenges faced at times for some and most of the times for others is the question of knowing the right resources to use to learn.

You can export your whole database by running one line in your command line. It’s accessible and useful. But it’s a bit wiser to you automatize the entire process. Let’s see how! The Background A few days ago, I signed in to the wrong database and deleted around 18 000 records that were in use. Not to mention, we had no backup for that data. So after all, I decided to make a little script to dump the database and save it to an SQL file automatically. But, if you are here for a fully working backup system, you should take a look at this package. We won’t cover more just scheduling database exports and its scheduling. The Dump Command With this one-liner , you can quickly dump and save your database to an SQL file. Many apps use this to export data from a database. mysqldump -u[user] -p[pass] [db] > [file_path] As you see, we give the user, the password, and the DB, then put the output to the given file. Quick, easy and helpful. Now let’s wrap this in an artisan command, to make it easily runnable and schedulable. Warming Up the Artisan Console One of the main point to integrate the shell command in the artisan console is that we can make it work in any environment. All we have to do, to use the config we have and use them. It means, if any of the parameters change, we don’t have to bother with the command itself. Move on, to create the console command. You can create commands by running the php artisan make:command order. We...
