    Adobe's Extensible Metadata Platform (XMP): Background [DRAFT -- Caroline Arms, 2011-11-30] Contents • Introduction • Adobe's XMP Toolkits • Links to Adobe Web Pages on XMP Adoption • Appendix A: Mapping of PDF Document Info (basic metadata) to XMP properties • Appendix B: Software applications that can read or write XMP metadata in PDFs • Appendix C: Creating Custom Info Panels for embedding XMP metadata Introduction Adobe's XMP (Extensible Metadata Platform: http://www.adobe.com/products/xmp/) is a mechanism for embedding metadata into content files. For example. an XMP "packet" can be embedded in PDF documents, in HTML and in image files such as TIFF and JPEG2000 as well as Adobe's own PSD format native to Photoshop. In September 2011, XMP was approved as an ISO standard.[ ISO 16684-1: Graphic technology -- Extensible metadata platform (XMP) specification -- Part 1: Data model, serialization and core properties] XMP is an application of the XML-based Resource Description Framework (RDF; http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-primer-20040210/), which is a generic way to encode metadata from any scheme. RDF is designed for it to be easy to use elements from any namespace. An important application area is in publication workflows, particularly to support submission of pictures and advertisements for inclusion in publications. The use of RDF allows elements from different schemes (e.g., EXIF and IPTC for photographs) to be held in a common framework during processing workflows. There are two ways to get XMP metadata into PDF documents: • manually via a customized File Info panel (or equivalent for products from vendors other than Adobe).

  • Digital Forensics Tool Testing – Image Metadata in the Cloud
    Digital Forensics Tool Testing – Image Metadata in the Cloud Philip Clark Master’s Thesis Master of Science in Information Security 30 ECTS Department of Computer Science and Media Technology Gjøvik University College, 2011 Avdeling for informatikk og medieteknikk Høgskolen i Gjøvik Postboks 191 2802 Gjøvik Department of Computer Science and Media Technology Gjøvik University College Box 191 N-2802 Gjøvik Norway Digital Forensics Tool Testing – Image Metadata in the Cloud Abstract As cloud based services are becoming a common way for users to store and share images on the internet, this adds a new layer to the traditional digital forensics examination, which could cause additional potential errors in the investigation. Courtroom forensics evidence has historically been criticised for lacking a scientific basis. This thesis aims to present an approach for testing to what extent cloud based services alter or remove metadata in the images stored through such services. To exemplify what information which could potentially reveal sensitive information through image metadata, an overview of what information is publically shared will be presented, by looking at a selective section of images published on the internet through image sharing services in the cloud. The main contributions to be made through this thesis will be to provide an overview of what information regular users give away while publishing images through sharing services on the internet, either willingly or unwittingly, as well as provide an overview of how cloud based services handle Exif metadata today, along with how a forensic practitioner can verify to what extent information through a given cloud based service is reliable.

AVEZ-VOUS BESOIN DE CE LIVRE ? Vous devriez lire ce livre si vous voulez développer pour KDE. Nous utilisons le terme développement très largement pour couvrir tout ce qui peut conduire à un changement dans le code source, ce qui inclut : Soumettre une correction de bogue Écrire une nouvelle application optimisée par la technologie KDE Contribuer à un projet existant Ajouter de la fonctionnalité aux bibliothèques de développement de KDE Dans ce livre, nous vous livrerons les bases dont vous avez besoin pour être un développeur productif. Nous décrirons les outils que vous devrez installer, montrer comment lire la documentation (et écrire la vôtre propre, une fois que vous aurez créé la nouvelle fonctionnalité !) et comment obtenir de l'aide par d'autres moyens. Nous vous présenterons la communauté KDE, qui est essentielle pour comprendre KDE parce que nous sommes un projet « open source », libre (gratuit). Les utilisateurs finaux du logiciel n'ont PAS besoin de ce livre ! Cependant, ils pourraient le trouver intéressant pour les aider à comprendre comment les logiciels complexes et riches en fonctionnalités qu'ils utilisent ont vu le jour. 3 2. LA PHILOSOPHIE DE KDE Le succès de KDE repose sur une vue globale, que nous avons trouvée à la fois pratique et motivante. Les éléments de cette philosophie de développement comprennent : L'utilisation des outils disponibles plutôt que de ré-inventer ceux existants : beaucoup des bases dont vous avez besoin pour travailler font déjà partie de KDE, comme les bibliothèques principales ou les « Kparts », et sont tout à fait au point.

The rapid development of information and communication technology has made the global industrial world undergo a revolution. The act of cyber-crime in Indonesia that utilizes computer equipment, mobile phones are increasingly increasing. The information in a file whose contents are explained about files is called metadata. The evidence items for cyber cases are divided into two types, namely physical evidence, and digital evidence. Physical evidence and digital evidence have different characteristics, the concept will very likely cause problems when applied to digital evidence. The management of national digital evidence that is associated with continued metadata is mostly carried out by researchers. Considering the importance of national digital evidence management solutions in the cyber-crime investigation process the research focused on identifying and modeling correlations with the digital image metadata security approach. Correlation analysis reads metadata characteristics, namely document files, sounds and digital evidence correlation analysis using standard file maker parameters, size, file type and time combined with digital image metadata. nationally designed the highest level of security is needed. Security-enhancing solutions can be encrypted against digital image metadata (EXIF).

  • Introduction to Linux
    Presentation to U3A - Linux Introduction 8 June 2019 – Terry Schuster - [email protected] What is Linux? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux https://www.iotforall.com/linux-operating-system-iot-devices/ In simple terms, Linux is an operating system which was developed to be a home-built version of UNIX, one of the first operating systems which could be run on different brands of mainframe computers with quite different types of hardware. Linux has developed to the extent that it is the leading operating system on servers and other big iron systems such as mainframe computers, and the only OS used on TOP500 supercomputers (since November 2017, having gradually eliminated all competitors). It is used by around 2.3 percent of desktop computers. The Chromebook, which runs the Linux kernel-based Chrome OS, dominates the US K–12 education market. In the mid 2000’s, Linux was quickly seen as a good building block for smartphones, as it provided an out- of-the-box modern, full-featured Operating System with very good device driver support, and that was considered both scalable for the new generation of devices and had the added benefit of being royalty free. It is now becoming very common in IoT devices, such as smart watches/refrigerators, home controllers, etc. etc. BTW, Tux is a penguin character and the official brand character of the Linux kernel. Originally created as an entry to a Linux logo competition, Tux is the most commonly used icon for Linux, although different Linux distributions depict Tux in various styles. The character is used in many other Linux programs and as a general symbol of Linux.

  • KDE Plasma 5
    Arvo Mägi KDE Plasma 5 Tallinn, 2017 1 Sissejuhatus KDE töökeskkonnale pani aluse saksa programmeerija Matthias Ettrich 14.10.1996. 2016. a oktoobris sai populaarne KDE seega 20. aastaseks. Hea ülevaate KDE ajaloost annab artikkel „19 Years of KDE History: Step by Step.” KDE 4.14 ilmumisega oli KDE saavutanud kasutusküpsuse, kuid edasine areng kippus takerduma – vaja oli põhimõttelisi uuendusi. Otsustati võtta kasutusele iseseisvatel moodulitel põhinev KDE 5 arhitektuur – Qt/Frameworks. Kõik KDE rakendusprogrammid, sh Plasma 5 töölaud, kasutavad ainult konkreetse rakenduse jaoks vajalikke mooduleid. Varem kasutati kõigi rakenduste jaoks ühist suurt teeki, mis raskendas muudatuste tegemist ja pidurdas arendustööd. Qt on C++ programmeerimiskeskkond. Pikaajalise toega Qt 5.9 LTS ilmus 31. mail 2017. KDE Frameworks on 70 moodulist koosnev komplekt, mis lihtsustab Qt keskkonnas KDE programmide koostamist. Frameworks veaparandused ja täiendused ilmuvad iga kuu. KDE Plasma 5 töölaud põhineb KDE Frameworksil (KF5). Töölaua veaparandused ilmuvad iga kuu, vajadusel mitu korda kuus, uued versioonid kord kvartalis. Plasma 5.8 LTS, mis on pikaajalise toega (18 kuud), ilmus 4.10.2016, veidi enne KDE 20. aastaseks saamist. Plasma 5.10 ilmus 30.05.2017. Järgmine pikaajalise toega Plasma 5.12 ilmub 2018. a jaanuaris. Plasma 5 töölaud on pälvinud palju kiitvaid hinnanguid ja sobib igapäevaseks tööks. Eeldab kaasaegset, mitme tuumaga protsessori ja piisava mäluga (vähemalt 4 GB) arvutit. SSD kettalt töötab välkkiirelt. Töölaud on keskkond rakendusprogrammide käivitamiseks ja kasutamiseks. KF5-le on üle viidud kõik KDE põhirakendused (failihaldur Dolphin, pildinäitaja Gwenview, konsool Konsole, teksti- redaktor Kate, ekraanitõmmise võtja Spectacle, videoredaktor Kdenlive, plaadikirjutaja K3b jt). Need on KDE Applications koosseisus, mille uued versioonid ilmuvad kolm korda aastas, veaparandused kord kuus.
