If you want to reduce the number of unnecessary files on your hard disk to free up disk space and help your computer run faster, use a form of disk cleanup. When running an operating system as complex as Windows, you may not always know the significance of all the files on your computer. Sometimes Windows uses files for a specific purpose and then retains them in a folder designated for temporary files. Alternatively, you may have previously installed Windows components that you are no longer using. For a variety of reasons, including running out of space on your hard drive, you may want to reduce the number of files on your disk, or create more free space, if it can be done without harming any of your programs. Program: CCleaner CCleaner (originally known as Crap Cleaner) is a free for home use system optimization, privacy and cleaning tool. It removes unused files from your system - allowing Windows to run faster and freeing up valuable hard disk space. It also cleans traces of your online activities such as your Internet history. Additionally it contains a fully featured registry cleaner. Instructions: 1. Start CCleaner. 2. It will remember the last used settings, which have already been pre-configured for you. If you’d like, you can modify them to better suit your needs (for instance, to stop the cleaning of saved passwords in your browser). 3. The simple and easy way is to just hit the Run Cleaner button in the bottom right corner of the program. 4. Alternatively, you can hit Analyze and it will analyze your computer and display you a results page so you can see what it will be removing (in case you want to unselect something so that it doesn’t remove it). 5. Once you’ve removed the temporary files, click the Registry button on the left bar. 6. Click the “Scan for Issues” button and it will search your registry for inconsistent entries in the registry. 7. Once it’s found them, click on the “Fix selected issues” button. It will ask you if you’d like to save a backup of the registry. Answer yes, and save it to the C:\ drive, or where-ever you’d like keeping the file name the way it is. This is to make sure if anything goes wrong, we can double click this file and it will restore what it is removing from the registry. 8. Close CCleaner. ©2015, Adamj Consulting Page 2 http://www.adamj.org Last Modified: 2015.01.21 The Monthly Folder Instruction Manual 2015 v1.2 ©2015, Adamj Consulting Page 3 http://www.adamj.org Last Modified: 2015.01.21 The Monthly Folder Instruction Manual 2015 v1.2 Program: BleachBit BleachBit quickly frees disk space and tirelessly guards your privacy. Free cache, delete cookies, clear Internet history, shred temporary files, delete logs, and discard junk you didn't know was there. Instructions: 1. Start BleachBit. 2. It will remember the last used settings, which have already been pre-configured for you. If you’d like, you can modify them to better suit your needs (for instance, to stop the cleaning of saved passwords in your browser). 3. The simple and easy way is to just hit the Clean button in the top left menu bar. 4. Alternatively, you can hit Preview and it will analyze your computer and display you a results page so you can see what it will be removing (in case you want to unselect something so that it doesn’t remove it). 5. Close BleachBit. ©2015, Adamj Consulting Page 4 http://www.adamj.org Last Modified: 2015.01.21 The Monthly Folder Instruction Manual 2015 v1.2 Process: Disk Defragmenting Improve performance by defragmenting your hard disk. When you save your files to your computer, they don’t save in sequence; they save in fragments all over the hard drive. Fragmentation makes your hard disk do extra work by finding each piece of the file and pulling it from all places on the hard drive. This process can slow down your computer. A disk defragmenting process rearranges fragmented data so your hard disk can work more efficiently by rearranging the fragments of each file to be in succession (or as best as possible). On the same thought, the new Solid State Drives (SSDs) should not be defragmented at all. The method that SSDs use to make them so fast is by writing a bunch of data to fragments over multiple memory cells at the exact same time. This is where they get their speed as they can be written or read from simultaneous clusters across multiple memory cells. The only thing that is safe for SSDs, is something called the TRIM command. The TRIM command helps to maintain the performance of solid state drives (SSDs) at an optimal level over the lifetime of the drive. TRIM functions by actively deleting invalid data from the SSD’s memory cells to ensure that write operations perform at full speed. Since a memory block must be erased before it can be re-programmed, TRIM improves performance by pro-actively ©2015, Adamj Consulting Page 5 http://www.adamj.org Last Modified: 2015.01.21 The Monthly Folder Instruction Manual 2015 v1.2 erasing pages containing invalid data, allowing the SSD to write new data without first having to perform a time-consuming erase command. The Windows default is to have TRIM Support for SSDs enabled for Windows 7+ so there is nothing for you to do if you have a solid state drive. Program: Defraggler (Not Free for Commercial Use) Defraggler optimizes your Windows PC by reducing the wear and tear on your hard drive and making you and Windows more efficient. Use Defraggler to defrag your entire hard drive, or individual files. For general usage we recommend defragging once per month using the default settings of Defraggler. Instructions: 1. Start Defraggler. 2. Click the Defrag button at the bottom. 3. Close Defraggler when it has completed. ©2015, Adamj Consulting Page 6 http://www.adamj.org Last Modified: 2015.01.21 The Monthly Folder Instruction Manual 2015 v1.2 Program: MyDefrag MyDefrag is a disk defragmenter and optimizer (a maintenance utility to make your harddisk faster). It is freeware, no time limit, fully functional, and with no advertisements. It’s fast, low overhead, and comes with many optimization strategies, that can handle floppies, USB disks, memory sticks, and anything else that looks like a disk to Windows. MyDefrag is extremely solid because it is based on the standard defragmentation application programming interface (API) by Microsoft, a system library that is included in all versions of Windows. The API is part of the operating system and can safely move almost any file on the disk, without risk and while the computer is in full use. Instructions: 1. Start MyDefrag. ©2015, Adamj Consulting Page 7 http://www.adamj.org Last Modified: 2015.01.21 The Monthly Folder Instruction Manual 2015 v1.2 2. It will remember the last used settings, which have already been pre-configured for you. If you’d like, you can modify them to better suit your needs. The best option is System Disk Monthly, and highlighted the C:\ drive. 3. Click on Run 4. Close MyDefrag when it has completed. ©2015, Adamj Consulting Page 8 http://www.adamj.org Last Modified: 2015.01.21 The Monthly Folder Instruction Manual 2015 v1.2 Process: Microsoft

  • Concepts in Information Assurance and Cyber Warfare
    Concepts in Information Assurance and Cyber WarfarE We define Information AssurancE as the practice of managing risks related to the storage, processing and transmission of our information and data. This could include designs for modern aircraft and weapons systems. CAP members are familiar with OpErational Risk ManagEmEnt (ORM) through CAP's online safety programs, flight academies and required staff training. numerous recent events have exposed significant penalties for not addressing obvious risks in cybersecurity. Models of Information AssurancE organize or group the risks so that we can be certain our checklists of action items will address all potential vulnerabilities and threats. ThE CIA-Triad and FivE Pillars of Information AssurancE The CIA Triad defines the attributes of information critical to its effective use. ConfidEntiality is the idea that certain information (troop movements, aircraft design, code keys) will be much more useful and valuable if they are kept secret from others. IntEgrity addresses the quality of the information, to include its completeness, its accuracy, and its relevance. If our information is adulterated with false rumors or red herrings, then it is less useful. Availability reveals a weakness for others to benefit if they can keep authorized users from accessing key information, even if they themselves cannot penetrate its confidentiality. The DoD adds two other attributes to the CIA Triad to include authentication and non-rEpudiation to form the FivE Pillars of Information AssurancE. These terms are defined in the glossary. If we take measures to ensure the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our military aircraft design data, then we would be able to effectively deploy new aircraft and weapons systems.
