MATRIUX KRYPTON :INSTALLATION STEP by STEP

This screen cord gives a step by step installation in virtual box starting right from choosing the .ISO and configuring the machine.The default password for root is "toor" without quotes.

VIRTUAL BOX : SOLVED - FAILED TO OPEN HARD DISK ISSUE

1. I had been an avid follower of VMWARE until recently wherein I have shifted my loyalties to VIRTUAL BOX....simple,easy....and the best part is that it is OPENSOURCE.One problem that I often used to face was that when I copied a VDI file from one place to another...it used to give me a message as shown in the screen shot below that said something like " Failed to open the hardddisk F:\....\.....vdi.So I used to keep trying ways and means but that remained unsolved.But there is a single command line solution to this that goes like this...(also shown in the screen shot).Goto the command prompt first as administrator.













Goto the folder C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox by typing

c:\>cd C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox

and then type

C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox>VBoxManage.exe internalcommands sethduuid "h:\path to the vdi folder\yourvdifilename.vdi"

and this should give a message similar to this 

UUID changed to: 3cfa288c-9e91-42e2-acdc-9821ab9d4aab


(CLICK ON IMAGE TO ENLARGE)

thats it...now open...u should not get the message!!!

The Brain Virus : Some thing I missed.....


This is about BRAIN virus...a name heard in the late 80S and early 90S and recognized as the first computer virus for MS-DOS that infects the boot sector of storage media formatted with the DOS File Allocation Table (FAT) file system....This was written by two brothers, Basit Farooq Alvi and Amjad Farooq Alvi who were from Lahore, Pakistan......so what makes a mention here is that I was recently watching a TED Video wherein the speaker Mikko Hypponen shares his interesting piece of interaction with these two brothers...do watch it...worth it for inviting a smile...

BIGGEST SPYING CENTRE:NSA@USA

1.  At a time when we all realize the cyber traffic movement monitoring around us via hackers,spies and the government....this will come as a news...a big news....

2.  National Security Agency,where else but United States of America ,is engaged building and ramping up the largest Spy center in the history of the world.Special points that I read about this upcoming centre are enumerated below for ur info :

-  To be completed by September 2013.

-  This will make NSA the largest, most covert, and potentially most intrusive intelligence agency ever.

- Will be able to intercept your private emails, cell phone calls, internet connections and Google/Bing searches, as well as all sorts of personal data trails—parking receipts, travel itineraries, bookstore purchases, and other digital litter 

-  To be located at Bluffdale.

-  Also known named Utah Data Center.

- Main purpose to tap, decipher, decrypt, analyze, and store Brobdingnagian Yotta bytes of the world’s communications as they take place across international,foreign and domestic networks.

-  Approx investment@$2 billion.

-  Realization of the “total information awareness” program initiated by Bush administration.

-  Also critical for breaking and decrypting codes to decipher encrypted financial information, stock transactions, business deals, foreign military and diplomatic secrets, legal document etc.

-  This will consist of 100,000-square-foot halls filled with servers, complete with raised floor space for cables and storage excluding more than 900,000 square feet for technical support and administration.
