Encrypting a file system?

Hi All,
I would like to encrypt my file system to US DoD standard AES however I'm not sure how to go about this can someone help me here?
I wish to do this as i have a lot of coursework on my system that i do not wish anyone else to have access to. If you can help me here please email me on [email protected]
Regards,
Greg

I don't know if it uses AES, but FileVault is the Mac OS X built-in encryption tool for user-by-user security. If you use FileVault, or any software encryption tool, you'll find that some things that are disk-intensive run more slowly; an example cited by Apple is iMovie.
You may want to look at the PGP tools - but be sure that or any other third-party tool you choose is compatible with Leopard first.

  • Oracle Express Edition And Windows Encrypted File System (EFS)

    Hello,
    I want to use oracle express edition with windows encrypted file system. I tried some possibilities like encrypting xe folder. But connection can not be established when efs is used. Is there a compatibility problem between oracle xe and windows efs? On Oracle's page, it is declared that oracle database is compatible with Windows EFS.
    Thank you for help.

    Pl identify which version of Win 7 - 32-bit or 64-bit ? Home version or something else ?
    The 11g XE install is only available for 32-bit version of Win 7 Professional or higher - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18803/toc.htm#BABHICJH. If you are installing on 64-bit version or Home version of Windows, then you are on your own. What is the reason for enabling EFS on this database ?

  • Windows 7 problem with EFS (Encrypting file system)

    Hello colleagues!
    I think this topic is related more to the security.
    The problem is a bit unusual and google doesn't give me a clear answers, but maybe anyone came across
    with similar problem...
    In general, I suspect that my problem is EFS (Encrypting file system), ie
    service that automatically encrypts files using a digital signature (certificate).
    A little background:
    - On the work PC it was necessary to reinstall
    the system, according to corporate rules all the content we have is encrypted using EFS (Encrypted files are highlighted with green color as you know).
    I have copied all the data on a portable drive and also copied the certificates (certmgr.msc).
    The system was reinstalled. The only change - it was x32 and became x64.
    - It was necessary to free up some space on the hard drive (the file
    system on it is NTFS), so,  I temporary copied all the files on my home PC. My work certificate was installed on it too, because
    I work from home
    sometimes.
    When the  work PC was repaired, I've moved all the files back in
    the same way (ie on the portable HDD, then to the work PC).
    All files were working, but when I needed MS Word documents, it became clear that something was wrong.
    When I've opened the document, it gaveme a window with weird symbols and prompts me to select the encoding ... of course -
    no encoding was fit.
    Started to explore all the documents, it appears that some part of them were working,
    someof them not - all the old documents were working, ie the ones, which
    were created before deploying EFS (newly created or copied files immediately encrypted).
    So, now I am sure that the
    documents were somehow re-encrypted, at least on a portable hard drive, they do not look as encrypted (not highlighted in green), but it's still not open.
    Completely stopped opening all the documents that have
    been encrypted (for all types of files, ie it is not just an MS Word, but also pdf, presentations, charts, and even the pictures).
    Tell me, who faced similar?
    How can it all back? I have no possibility to restore those documents from another sources.

    Try copy those corrupted files and make sure you are using the same certificate and then re-encrypt the copied files and try decrypt them.
    If possible, use the same account as you used for encryption.

  • OEL file system questions - XFS and encrypted file system

    Does anyone know if Oracle Enterprise Linux 64 bit can support / install the XFS file type ?
    Different question.
    Does anyone know if Oracle Enterprise Linux 64 bit can encrypt the whole file system?
    Steve

    Oracle Enterprise Linux (OEL), which is based on RHEL source, does not contain everything you need to create an XFS filesystem.

  • EFS(Encrypting File System ) Folder can work for cloning Windows 7 PC?

    Dear All,
      I am using EFS  (Encrypting File System) on a Windows 7 notebook to encrypt a folder.
      I would like to clone this notebook to several other notebooks.
      Will the EFS still work on the cloned PC?

    Hi,
    As I know, after cloning the system, the SID may be changed. So, the EFS folder unable to open.
    But if you have the EFS certificate, you can still use the folder with no issue.
    In theory, the EFS can work on the cloned PC, please backup the certificate first.
    Back up Encrypting File System (EFS) certificate:

    Hope it helps.

  • Crashes and read-only file systems

    Notice: I apolgize for the long post, I've tried to be as thorough as possible.  I have searched everywhere for possible solutions, but things I've found end up being temporary workarounds or don't apply to my situation.  Any help, even as simple as, "have you checked out XYZ log, it's hidden here", would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks
    I'm not sure what exactly caused the issues below, but they did start to happen within a day of running pacman -Syu.  I hadn't run that since I first installed Arch on December 2nd of this year.
    Setup:
    Thinkpad 2436CTO
    UEFI/GPT
    SSD drive
    Partitions: UEFISYS, Boot, LVM
    The LVM is encrypted and is broken up as: /root, /var, /usr, /tmp, /home
    All LVM file systems are EXT4 (used to have /var and /tmp as ReiserFS)
    The first sign that something was wrong was gnome freezing.  Gnome would then crash and I'd get booted back to the shell with all filesystems mounted as read-only.  I started having the same issues as this OP:
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=150704
    At the time, I had /var and /tmp as ReiserFS, and would also get reiserfs_read_locked_inode errors.
    When shutting down (even during non-crashed sessions) I would notice this during shutdown:
    Failed unmounting /var
    Failed unmounting /usr
    Followed by a ton of these:
    device-mapper: remove ioctl on <my LVM group> failed: Device or resource busy
    Nother of these errors had ever appeared before.
    After hours of looking for solutions (and not finding any that worked) I was convinced (without any proof) that my Reiser file systems were corrupt and so I reformatted my entire SSD and started anew - not the Arch way, I know   I set all logical volumes as EXT4.
    After started anew, I noticed
    device-mapper: remove ioctl on LVM_SysGroup failed: Device or resource busy
    was still showing up, even with just a stock Arch setup (maybe even when powering off via Arch install ISO, don't remember).  After a lot of searching, I found that most people judged it a harmless error, so I ignored it and continued setting up Arch.
    I set up Gnome and a basic LAMP server, and everything seemed to work for a couple of hours.  Soon after, I got the same old issues back.  The System-journald issue came back and per the workaround on https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=150704 and a couple other places, I rotated the journals and stopped journald from saving to storage.  That seemed to stop THOSE errors from at least overwhelming the shell, but I would still get screen freezes, crashes, and read-only file systems.
    I had to force the laptop to power off, since poweroff/reboot/halt commands weren't working (would get errors regarding the filesystems mounted as read-only).
    I utilized all disk checking functions possible.  From running the tests (SMART test included) that came as part of my laptop's BIOS to full blown fsck.  All tests showed the drive was working fine, and Fsck would show everything was either clean, or
    Clearing orphaned inode ## (uid=89, gid=89, mode=0100600, size=###
    Free blocks count wrong (###, counted=###)
    Which I would opt to fix.  Nothing serious, though.
    I could safely boot back into Arch and use the system fine until the system decides to freeze/crash and do the above all over again.
    The sure way of recreating this for me is to run a cron job on a local site I'm developing. After a brief screen freeze (mouse still moveable but everything is otherwise unreponsive) I'll systemctl status mysqld.service and notice that mysqld went down.
    It seems that it's at this point my file systems are mounted as read only, as trying to do virtually anything results in:
    unable to open /var/db/sudo/...: Read-only file system
    After some time, X/Gnome crashes and I get sent back to shell with
    ERROR: file_stream_metrics.cc(37)
    RecordFileError() err = 30 source = 1 record = 0
    Server terminated successfully (0)
    Closing log file.or_delegate.h(30)] sqlite erro1, errno 0: SQL logic error or missing database[1157:1179
    rm: cannot remove '/tmp/serverauth.teuroEBhtl': Read-only file system
    Before all this happened, I was using Arch just fine for a few weeks.  I wiped the drives and started anew, and this still happens with just the minimal number of packages installed.
    I've searched for solutions to each individual problem, but come across a hack that doesn't solve anything (like turning off storing logs for journal), or the solution doesn't apply to my case.
    At this point, I'm so overwhelmed I'm not even sure where exactly to pick up figuring this issue out.
    Thanks in advance for any help

    Did this occur when you booted from the live/install media?
    What is your current set up? That is, partitions, filesystems etc. I take it you have not yet reinstalled X but are in the default CLI following installation?
    If turning off log storage didn't help, reenable it so that you may at least stand a chance of finding something useful.
    What services, if any, are you running? What non-default daemons etc.?
    Does it happen if you keep the machine off line?
    Have you done pacman -Syu since installation and dealt with any *.pacnew files?

  • How Encrypt a File Using Key?

    Hi Guys,
    Here is my problem. I have to create a bank's document encrypted to send to a legacy system. ( Using a KEY to validate the roll process)
    I'm thinking to use two scenarios:
    1 - Generate the file via ABAP and sent it to a folder in a server to be consuming - SAP ERP.
    2 - Generate the file via ABAP, sent it to PI encrypt it via Java Mapping and sent it to a server.
    ABAP
    First question.
    There is a way to generate this file using SHA1 using a Key as parameter?
    (CALCULATE_HASH_FOR_CHAR)
    Second one.
    How can I decrypt this file to test?
    Third.
    There is others ways to encrypt a file via SAP ERP? UTF-8 and BASE32 are not encrypt codes. They are encoding code.
    PI
    First
    There is a library or other way to encrypt a file without implement a Java Mapping?
    Tnks.

    > There is a way to generate this file using SHA1 using a Key as parameter?
    Why don't you simple search the forum with "SHA1" term, you'd get the answer in an instant
    > How can I decrypt this file to test?
    > There is others ways to encrypt a file via SAP ERP? UTF-8 and BASE32 are not encrypt codes. They are encoding code.
    What encryption do you need?
    > But I would like to know if are these methods algorithms as DES, AES, RSA... or others ?
    Couldn't you say it at the beginning!
    By simply looking at CL_HARD_WIRED_ENCRYPTOR methods, we see that the encryption mechanism is very simple (I'm not expert so I can't tell what it is), I wouldn't rely on it...
    I recommend you to read [Note 662340 - SSF Encryption Using the SAPCryptolib|http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/662340]. There are also some documentation, security guides on sap library and sap marketplace.

  • I tried to encrypt using file vault but it froze slowing my macbook pro, how can i get things moving or stop the encryption

    i tried to encrypt using file vault but it froze slowing my macbook pro, how can i get things moving or stop the encryption

    Back up all data before proceeding. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select Disk Utility.
    In the Disk Utility window, select the icon of the startup volume from the list on the left. It will be nested below another disk icon, usually with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar. When prompted, enter the login password of a user authorized to unlock the volume, or the alternate decryption key that was generated when you activated FileVault.
    Then, from the menu bar, select
              File ▹ Turn Off Encryption
    Enter the password again.
    You can then restart as usual, if the system is working. Decryption will be completed in the background. It may take several hours, and during that time performance will be reduced.
    If you can't turn off encryption in Disk Utility because the menu item is grayed out, you'll have to erase the volume and then restore the data from a backup. Select the Erase tab, and then select
              Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    from the Format menu.
    You can then quit to be returned to the main Recovery screen. Follow these instructions if you back up with Time Machine. If you use other backup software, follow its developer's instructions.
    Don't erase the volume unless you have at least two complete, independent backups. One is not enough to be safe.

  • Index/catalog & encrypt PDF files

    Hi,
    I wish to archive thousands of PDF invoices. I can do this quite easily by putting them on a CD or DVD and creating a catalog Index... however I also wish to encrypt each document and password protect it. Again this is easily achieved by creating a batch process to add Security. When I have done this the catalogue index does not work anymore - it doesn't work either when I select "Encrypt all documents except metadata (acrobat 6 and later compatible)".
    Does anyone know how to index/catalog & encrypt PDF files?

    Hi Rich
    Thanks for your reply.
    since i am using a stand alone Tape drive, we will not able to take the inventory , isn't it ?
    i hope that my media family parameters are correct only .please find the media family details below.
    media family name :- test-media-family
    volume id used :- unique to this media family
    volume expiration :- 3 years
    appendable :- yes
    rotation policy & volume duplication policy are ;- none
    ====================================
    While i am mounting the Tape to the drive is gives the following error
    ob> mountdev -w test-tape
    Error: can't mount volume in test-tape - timed out waiting for bot

  • Windows 8.1 File System Performance Down Compared to Windows 7

    I have a good workstation and a fast SSD array as my boot volume. 
    Ever since installing Windows 8.1 I have found the file system performance to be somewhat slower than that of Windows 7.
    There's nothing wrong with my setup - in fact it runs as stably as it did under Windows 7 on the same hardware with a similar configuration. 
    The NTFS file system simply isn't quite as responsive on Windows 8.1.
    For example, under Windows 7 I could open Windows Explorer, navigate to the root folder of C:, select all the files and folders, then choose
    Properties.  The system would count up all the files in all the folders at a rate of about
    30,000 files per second
    the first time, then about 50,000 files per second the next time, when all the file system data was already cached in RAM.
    Windows 8.1 will enumerate roughly
    10,000 files per second the first time, and around
    18,000 files per second the second time -
    a roughly 1 to 3 slowdown.  The reduced speed once the data is cached in RAM implies that something in the operating system is the bottleneck.
    Not every operation is slower.  I've benchmarked raw disk I/O, and Windows 8.1 can sustain almost the same data rate, though the top speed is a little lower.  For example, Windows 7 vs. 8 comparisons using the ATTO speed benchmark:
    Windows 7:
    Windows 8:

    Configure The Windows 8 "To Work" Options

    No worries, and thanks for your response.
    The problem can be characterized most quickly by the slowdown in enumerating files in folders.  Unfortunately, besides some benchmarks that show only an incremental degradation in file read/write performance, I don't have any good before/after
    measurements of other actual file operations.
    Since posting the above I have verified:
    My system has 8dot3 support disbled (same as my Windows 7 setup did).
    Core Parking is disabled; CPU benchmarks are roughly equivalent to what they were.
    File system caching is configured the same.

  • Help with a fcpx library that is locked "could not be opened. Read-only file system"

    Hi all,
    I recently moved all my fcpx projects/events to a new Harddrive - I thought I did this correctly by copying/duplicating all projects/events from within FCPX.
    When I last used FCPX all the projects/events were there - no issues.  Also, when I look at package contents - everything is still there in terms of events and file sizes.  
    All the library files are on an external hard drive, on an encrypted disk image.  Now a week later I have tried to open FCPX and I get the following error
    "The document “MND_Z_FCPX” could not be opened. Read-only file system" and nothing will open.
    Have checked permissions - these all seem in order.  OSX is10.9.5 
    Any suggestions as to what might be the issue? 
    Thanks in advance.
    R

    the permissions themselves look ok - they have my two computer profiles as read/write.   I also note that on some occasions the library has opened in my other Computer profile, but not in the one that I want it to open.
    So I think you're right, there is something with permissions happening here.  I keep a work and personal computer profile.
    Don't know how it happened - but the volume is definitely Read Only - even though I've created a Read/Write permissions for it

    I ask you details on size, use and contents of following partitions:
    /obj1 that is  CIFS object cache and /dre1 that is used for the DRE byte level cache
    as indicated by you.
    In particular I don't understand why if i connect to it through interface web,
    from  the tab CifsAo->Monitoring->Cache, I see
    Maximum cache disk size: 95.75391 GB
    Is this value contained in the 121015 MB of  /obj1, Right?
    Infact I have configured in the Central Manger a Prepositon Directive with Total Size as % of Cache Volume=20
    What is the remaining content in /obj1?
    While is the redundancy library contained in /dre1
    to which WAAS device accesses to compress the traffic to as well as in /plz1?
    Please can you do clarify  me?
    Thanks a  lot in advance

  • Corrupt DMG file - "No Mountable File Systems"

    Hello, I have an important backup DMG file that I can't mount. When I try, I get this error..."No Mountable File Systems".
    I have tried the following with no success...
    - repairing the DMG in Disk Utility.
    - converting the DMG in Disk Utility to a R/W image.
    - Repair in Data Rescue 3
    - Repair in Disk Warrior
    - Repair in File Salvage (this actually recovered a single mp3 file, so this makes me think the data is still there)
    - Repair in Stellar Phoenix
    - Repair in Disk Drill
    I have read on one of these forums (I can't seem to find it anymore) that someone had a similar issue and someone helped them through a lot of digging around in the broken file (something to do with headers?)...and in the end they managed to repair the broken DMG file. I would really like to repair this file, so just in case someone who knows how to fix this sort of thing, I've shared the file here...
    files.me.com/jeffvandyck/x4qv9c
    I have a few other files like this and would really like to recover those as well. I'm relatively technical, and once I understand what I'm looking for I can try to fix the others.
    Thanks in advance for any help!
    Cheers,
