The tips are fun and the hope of discov- ering hidden gems makes it a worthwhile task. John Southern Former editor of Linux Magazine I enjoyed Ubuntu Kung Fu and learned some new things. I would rec- ommend this book—nice tips and a lot of fun to be had. Carthik Sharma Creator of the Ubuntu Blog (http://ubuntu.wordpress.com) Wow! There are some great tips here! I have used Ubuntu since April 2005, starting with version 5.04. I found much in this book to inspire me and to teach me, and it answered lingering questions I didn’t know I had. The book is a good resource that I will gladly recommend to both newcomers and veteran users.

  • Photos Copied" Box
    Our photos have never been as scattered as they are now... Do you know where your photos are? Digital Photo Roundup Checklist www.theswedishorganizer.com Online Storage Edition Let's Play Digital Photo Roundup! Congrats on making the decision to start organizing your digital photos! I know the task can seem daunting, so hopefully this handy checklist will help get your moving in the right direction. LET'S ORGANIZE! To start organizing your digital photos, you must first gather them all into one place, so that you'll be able to sort and edit your collection. Use this checklist to document your family's online storage accounts (i.e. where you have photos saved online), and whether they are copied onto your Master hub (the place where you are saving EVERYTHING). It'll make the gathering process a whole lot easier if you keep a record of what you have already copied and what is still to be done. HERE'S HOW The services in this checklist are categorized, so that you only need to print out what applies to you. If you have an account with the service listed, simply check the "Have Account" box. When you have copied all the photos, check the "Photos Copied" box. Enter your login credentials under the line between the boxes for easy retrieval. If you don't see your favorite service on the list, just add it to one of the blank lines provided after each category. Once you are done, you should find yourself with all your digital images in ONE place, and when you do, check back on the blog for tools to help you with the next step in the organizing process.

  • Use It Wisely and Securely Cloud Storage
    The Computer Corner By: George Birmingham, ET1(SS), Gold ’69-‘74 Cloud Storage – Use it wisely and securely Cloud Storage, for better or worse, is with us to stay. So what is cloud storage you may be asking? Cloud storage is a cloud computing model that stores data on the Internet through a cloud computing provider who manages and operates data storage as a service. It's delivered on demand with just-in-time capacity and costs, and eliminates buying and managing your own data storage infrastructure. So who offers cloud storage? Here are the providers as noted by PC Magazine as the Top 10 Cloud storage providers: · IDrive Review. MSRP: $69.50. ... · SugarSync Review. MSRP: $89.88. ... · Dropbox Review. MSRP: $0.00. ... · Microsoft OneDrive Review. MSRP: $0.00. ... · Box (Personal) Review. MSRP: $10.00. ... · CertainSafe Digital Safety Deposit Box Review. ... · Google Drive Review. ... · SpiderOak ONE Review. · Apple iCloud Free https://www.pcmag.com/picks/the-best-cloud-storage-and-file-sharing-services (14-Jun-2019) You will note that Dropbox and Microsoft OneDrive are in the list and they are available either natively in Windows 10 (OneDrive) or as an available app from the AppStore (Dropbox). If you decide to use a cloud storage solution, please read any and all Privacy Statements and Terms and Conditions very carefully before signing up. Since OneDrive and Dropbox are most common in Windows 10, here are some links to look at: https://www.dropbox.com/privacy (01-Jan-2020) https://www.itprotoday.com/development-techniques-and-management/ask-winobs-how-secure-are- my-onedrive-files (06-Oct-2017) Be sure to note who has access, how and with whom they share the data they hold, what kind of data they collect about you, where the encryption keys for your files are stored, who can access those keys, and if data is encrypted while in storage.

All of them have been satisfied with their purchase and have even been able to use it to help them in their journey along the way.” —Chris Crisafulli, Ubuntu LoCo Council, Florida Local Community Team “This text demystifies a very powerful Linux operating system . in just a few weeks of having it, I’ve used it as a quick reference a half dozen times, which saved me the time I would have spent scouring the Ubuntu forums online.” —Darren Frey, Member, Houston Local User Group This page intentionally left blank The Official Ubuntu Book Sixth Edition This page intentionally left blank The Official Ubuntu Book Sixth Edition Benjamin Mako Hill Matthew Helmke Amber Graner Corey Burger With Jonathan Jesse, Kyle Rankin, and Jono Bacon Upper Saddle River, NJ • Boston • Indianapolis • San Francisco New York • Toronto • Montreal • London • Munich • Paris • Madrid Capetown • Sydney • Tokyo • Singapore • Mexico City Many of the designations used by manufacturers and sellers to distinguish their products are claimed as trademarks.

  • Five Apps to Make the BYOD Transition Easier
    Five apps to make the BYOD transition easier Jack Wallen suggests apps that will help make switching between home and office easier. Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) - it’s not only becoming an important element for end users, it’s becoming a necessity for businesses. BYOD offers up a possible cost savings for companies and more mobility for users. But with the possibilities of BYOD, comes hurdles to leap. Some of those hurdles (such as security) fall into the hands of the company. Other hurdles, such as ease of transition, fall squarely on the shoulders of the end user. Although the inherent mobility of many devices make for easy transition, it is necessary to take advantage of applications to make switching between home and office easy. Here are five possible applications that can aid in your transition. These applications vary in platform, but all should help make BYOD a user-friendly task. Five Apps 1. SpiderOak SpiderOak is yet another data syncing tool. But unlike Dropbox (or other syncing software), SpiderOak isn’t just your average syncing software. SpiderOak makes BOYD even easier with the following features: Backup data, create multiple, unique syncing pairs across all machines associated with an account, and easily share anything. If you’re looking for the single best syncing solution to help make the BYOD transition easier, SpiderOak is the one you need. SpiderOak is available for all platforms. 2. Divide Divide is an Android application that allows you to easily (and securely) separate your personal data from your business data. Divide actually creates a separate (launcher) desktop to be used for your business data.

Thus, it is important for a digital forensic practitioner to have a well-rounded knowledge about the most relevant data artefacts that could be forensically recovered from the cloud product under investigation.

  • Ubuntu Kung Fu.Pdf
    Prepared exclusively for J.S. Ash Beta Book Agile publishing for agile developers The book you’re reading is still under development. As part of our Beta book program, we’re releasing this copy well before we normally would. That way you’ll be able to get this content a couple of months before it’s available in finished form, and we’ll get feedback to make the book even better. The idea is that everyone wins! Be warned. The book has not had a full technical edit, so it will con- tain errors. It has not been copyedited, so it will be full of typos and other weirdness. And there’s been no effort spent doing layout, so you’ll find bad page breaks, over-long lines with little black rectan- gles, incorrect hyphenations, and all the other ugly things that you wouldn’t expect to see in a finished book. We can’t be held liable if you use this book to try to create a spiffy application and you somehow end up with a strangely shaped farm implement instead. Despite all this, we think you’ll enjoy it! Throughout this process you’ll be able to download updated PDFs from your account on http://pragprog.com. When the book is finally ready, you’ll get the final version (and subsequent updates) from the same address. In the meantime, we’d appreciate you sending us your feedback on this book at http://books.pragprog.com/titles/ktuk/errata, or by using the links at the bottom of each page.
