It teachers new Ubuntu users how to navigate their new operating system, perform basic tasks and suggests specific applications to handle routine tasks.You'll start by installing Ubuntu and its related “flavors” (Kubuntu, Ubuntu MATE, etc.) and how they differ from each other. The rest of the book breaks down application suggestions by broad categories to fill in gaps in the default installed system, or suggest fun things that the reader might not have even thought of. The command line is handled after you are comfortable with the system and ready for something interesting but different. It's presented as a powerful interface that can either be approached casually as a unique method of interacting with the computer, as an occasional tool to use, or as a fun way to get in touch with an early way of using a computer.A brief look at “power user” topics gives advice on managing running processes, installing alternate desktop software, using virtual desktops and creating virtual machines. It’s a great way to round off the book with starting points for advanced topics that are more specialty topics. An appendix describes the Ubuntu release schedule, naming, and timing.The book is designed to function as a “travel guide” to Ubuntu, offering both a scenic tour through some of the great software in Ubuntu in a practical “here’s what you can do with this” style as well as a comprehensive reference guide that the reader can return to over and over to learn how to accomplish specific tasks.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN* Understand the advantages of Ubuntu and its variants—Kubuntu and Xubuntu* Install Ubuntu on its own or alongside your computer's existing operating system* Search Ubuntu's catalog of thousands of applications* Work with files and disks that were created with Windows and OS X* Run simple, interesting tasks and games using the command line* Customize Ubuntu in powerful ways and get work done with virtual machinesWHO THIS BOOK IS FORBeginning to intermediate computer users with Windows 7 or OS X or later experienceNATHAN HAINES is an author, instructor, speaker, and computer consultant who fell in love with Ubuntu in 2005, and helped found the Ubuntu California Local Community Team to share that excitement with others. As a current leader of Ubuntu California and a member of the Ubuntu Local Community Council, he works to help others share Ubuntu worldwide.When not working with computers, he's more than likely admiring the latest Nintendo hardware, wishing he had more time for retro console and PC gaming, and indulging in linguistic curiosity by studying German or dabbling in Old English or Tolkien's constructed Elvish languages. The queue of scifi and fantasy books on his Kindle is probably growing instead of shrinking, although sometimes camping trips help with that.As a hybrid author who enjoys stiff drinks, moonlit walks on the beach, and five-star reviews on his books, he would love to hear from you at nathan@nhaines.com.CHAPTER 1: INSTALLING UBUNTU* Preparing to Install Ubuntu* Installing Ubuntu* Installing Kubuntu* Installing Xubuntu* Installing Lubuntu* Installing Ubuntu MATE* Installing Ubuntu Unity* Install Ubuntu Server * Install a minimal Ubuntu system * Multiple Operating SystemsCHAPTER 2: GETTING STARTED WITH UBUNTU* Ubuntu Desktop* Installing and Updating Software* Managing User Accounts* Finding Things in Ubuntu Instead of Windows* Finding Things in Ubuntu instead of macOS* Connecting to a Windows Desktop Remotely* Running Windows Applications* Connecting to Windows Shared Folders and Printers* Sharing Files and Printers with Other Computers* Sharing Office Documents with Others* Sharing Photos and Graphics with Others* Formatting Disks to Work with Other Operating SystemsCHAPTER 3: PRODUCTIVITY AT HOME AND WORK* Writing documents Without Distractions using FocusWriter* Managing your Personal Finances Using HomeBank* Managing Your Professional Email, Contacts, and Calendar Using Evolution* Managing your Calendar with Thunderbird using Lightning* Integrating your Online Accounts with Ubuntu* Organizing Your Thoughts with Mind-Mapping Software using Freeplane* Personal Wiki Note Taking Software Using Tomboy* Installing Additional Language Support* Keeping Track of Your Personal Time Management Using Hamster* Organizing Collections of Books, Movies, Games, and More Using Tellico* Managing Your Ebook Library Using Calibre* Printing Labels and Cards Using gLabels* Backing Up and Restoring Personal Files using Backup* Capturing Screenshots and Recording Your Desktop Using Screenshot and KazamCHAPTER 4: ENJOYING MEDIA AND OTHER ENTERTAINMENT* Play DVDs and Media Files* Organize Your CD and Digital Music Collection Using Rhythmbox* Back Up and Create Music CDs Using Brasero* Create Video DVDs using DevedeNG* Organize and Edit Your Photos Using Shotwell* Record and Process Audio Using Audacity* Play MIDI Files* Explore the Universe Using Stellarium* Play Legacy PC Games* Play Commercial Games Using SteamCHAPTER 5: COMMAND-LINE TRICKS AND APPLICATIONS* Introduction to the Command Line* See What’s Running on Your Computers* Multitask on the Command Line* Diagnose a Connection to a Server* View Information About the Operating System* Add New Users via Command Line* Check Your Disk Space* Edit Text Files* Read Email* Browse the Web* IRC* Play Text-Based GamesCHAPTER 6: POWER USER TOOLS* Manage Running Processes* Managing Disks and Thumb Drives* Using Multiple Workspaces* Installing Alternate Desktop Environments* Installing Software from the Command Line* Expand Your Software Options* Creating Application Launchers for Programs* Working with Virtual Machines

Everyday Enterprise Architecture
Discover what needs to happen in enterprise-architecture practice—and not just its outcomes, but also the activities from which those outcomes would arise. This book reveals how business and enterprise architects can deliver fast solutions to an always-on-the-go business world.To begin, you'll review a new technique called "context-space mapping," which provides a structured method for sense-making across the entire context of an enterprise. Throughout the book, you'll concentrate on the routine practices_ _that underpin each of the architecture disciplines.Working step-by-step through a real 10-day architecture project, this book explores the activities that underpin the strategy, structures and solutions in the real-time turmoil of an enterprise architect’s everyday work. You'll explore how and why and when the various documents, artefacts and items of ‘theory-stuff’ come into the practice – all those mainstream methods, frameworks, models, metamodels and other information sources.In the end, Everyday Enterprise Architecture will help you develop the skills, judgment, and awareness to keep enhancing the value of your architectural projects.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN* Work on architectures at "business-speed"* Adapt architectures for different tasks* Gather, use, and manage architectural informationWHO THIS BOOK IS FOREnterprise and business architects.Tom Graves has been an independent consultant for more than four decades, in business transformation, enterprise architecture and knowledge management.

Das Standard-Datenschutzmodell (SDM)
Das Standard-Datenschutzmodell (SDM) gilt spätestens seit 2020 deutschlandweit als etabliert, um normative Anforderungen der DSGVO in funktionale Anforderungen an die Praxis der Datenverarbeitungen zu transformieren.Wenn die Juristin zum Beispiel sagt: Diese Daten sind unverzüglich zu löschen! Dann ist aus juristischer Sicht alles Erforderliche gesagt. Für Praktiker*innen, die diese vermeintlich leichte Anforderung umzusetzen haben, können sich Unmengen an komplizierten Fragen stellen: Wie gesichert muss gelöscht werden? Kann man den installierten Löschprogrammen trauen? Wie muss das Löschen von Daten in welcher Auflösung dokumentiert und protokolliert werden? Wer ist eigentlich befugt, zu löschen, auch in den Backup-Dateien? Das SDM hilft, bei solchen Fragestellungen der Umsetzung zu begründeten Entscheidungen zu gelangen, um an ein vollständiges Set von aufeinander abgestimmten, wirksamen Schutzmaßnahmen zu gelangen. Dies ist von zentraler Bedeutung bei der Durchführung von Datenschutz-Prüfungen und -Beratungen, Datenschutz-Folgenabschätzungen und dem Betrieb eines Datenschutz-Managements.MARTIN ROST ist Mitarbeiter des Unabhängigen Landeszentrums für Datenschutz in Schleswig-Holstein und Leiter des „Unterarbeitskreis Standard-Datenschutzmodell“ des „Arbeitskreis Technik“ der Konferenz der Datenschutzbeauftragten des Bundes und der Länder.Was meint „Datenschutz“? - Bedeutung des SDM - Essentials der DSGVO - Was ist eine Verarbeitungstätigkeit? - System der Gewährleistungsziele - Komponenten-Ebenen - Risiken im Datenschutz - Der SDM-Würfel - Ausblick: Datenschutz-Folgenabschätzung und Datenschutzmanagement mit SDM - Referenzen
