I am a 90s kid and before we had USB flash drives there were CDs and floppy disks, although my 13-year-old cousin probably does not know what either of those are. USB flash drives are commonly used for the same reasons CDs and floppy disks were used for. They all store information, back up that information, as well as transfer the information and other files to a computer. The biggest difference is that USB flash drives is that they are much smaller, faster, and they carrying capacity size is over
design a Wireless USB flash drive in which the USB flash drive can be used without connecting using the dongle. This makes the data transfer using USB more sophisticated. It also provides speed upto 1 Mbps. I. Introduction USB flash drive is one of the commonly used memory storage device by all the people. The main reason for this is because of its compatibility and user friendly memory storage device. It can able to store data of any kind. The data stored in the USB flash drive can be erased, edited
Universal Serial Bus (USB) USB ports are developed to connect keyboard, mouse, printer and many other devices to the PC. They are developed in mid1990’s and gains a tremendous success because no additional knowledge is required to install the devices. USB ports not only communicate between devices and computer but it can also supply electric power to the devices. USB ports are not only limited to computers but it can also be seen mobile phones and video games consoles. USB ports has undergone a lot
Flash Drives and Optical Storage In Computing, optical disc drives are described by Wikipedia as a disk drive that uses laser light or electromagnetic waves within or near the visible light spectrum as part of the process of reading or writing data to or from optical discs. Some optical disc drives can only read from discs, but recent drives are able to both read and record, also called burners or writers. These drives are very commonly used in computers to read software and consumer media distributed
Flash Drives and Optical Storage Flash drives and Optical Storage are quick and easy ways to transfer data, and with all the technology that has been introduced over the years, these have many uses. There compact, portable, and very useful in many situations. To help understand these two topics more in depth, I will be explaining what they are, how they are used, and many other details. First, I will be explaining flash drives. Flash drives are a data storage device that includes flash memory with
USB flash drives offer you an alternative to cloud-based storage solutions. These small, finger-sized devices let you back up a hard drive, access files if your internet connection goes down and store information in a compact medium. Here?s a basic guide to some of the fastest and best USB 3.0 flash drives made today. How to Buy a USB Flash Drive In general, the type of flash drive you purchase depends on the files you want to save. If you need a flash drive just for transferring word processing
of the time, those memories are loss forever. Some people have the most important events saved to their computer. In some cases, many individuals have their wedding photos, videos of their child’s first steps or first words, all saved to their hard drive. Parting with theses precious mementos can be hard to deal with. However, with the invention of backup devices, you no longer have to part ways with your precious videos, pictures or files. Theses items can be saved stored directly on the device and
Flash Drives and Optical Storage What is a flash Drive? Well a USB Flash drive is a memory storage device that is plugged into a computer or other mobile devices. Flash Drive also called Thumb drives are very convenient for users, they are small and light weight and have a memory storage ranging from 512MB to 64Mb. (Gary B. Shelly).Most flash drives are removable and rewriteable. USB Flash drives are typically used for backups or transfers of computer files. Flash drives consist of small printed
into it. So, we can trick the malware into believing that the honeypot software is a removable drive. There is a driver in the kernel mode that indicated to the operating system if a particular driver is removable or not. It is known as the disk.sys driver which inspects any new device. So we place the ghost.bus driver into that driver to show that the honeypot software we installed is a removable USB drive. Hence, we can mount the virtual flashdrive(the honeypot software) on demand to facilitate
Universal Serial Bus (USB) is the system used for connecting peripheral devices to personal computers by means of standard connections and communication systems. It was developed during January 1996 by a cluster of companies such as the Intel, Compaq, Microsoft, Digital IBM, and Northern Telecom. These companies also formed the USB Implementation Forum Inc. (USB-IF) which is a nonprofit organization publishing the specifications of the technology and giving them support for further development and
Internal and External Hard Drives All around the world, on laptops, computers, phones, and mp3 players, electronic devices are being used to perform everyday functions. We can pull up saved passwords, applications, and saved files in a matter of seconds. But how exactly are these files saved onto these devices? What units are used to represent the amount of data being saved? How exactly do computers save documents and applications that can be sent from one computer to another? What units are used
USB drives constantly go missing. Laptops and Notebook computers are often lost And easily stolen by thieves. And, while far less likely to go missing, Unauthorised persons may gain access desktop Computers, Along with Servers, which may contain vast troves Of sensitive company information and customer data. Additionally, the data they still possess when being disposed of Can potentially be recovered if hard drives are not properly wiped. One effective safe-guard against data theft is through the
STUXNET When we hear the word Stuxnet, we believe this to be one of the first incidents involving the term "Cyber Warfare". As the term Cyber War is still not exactly defined, we know that in the present day, cyber attacks are on the rise and are constantly happening around the world. The cyber domain introduces a new attack vector for military war. The event of Stuxnet brings people into perspective of the logical cyber and computer realms affecting the actual physical world. Although the events

Processing Unit. Computers use several memory types organized in a storage hierarchy, in the Central Processing Unit. The memory hierarchy consists of CPU registers, SRAM caches, external caches, DRAM, paging systems and virtual memory on the hard drive of the computer. Initially, storage devices were referred to as memory, but nowadays memory refers to a Random Access Memory (RAM) that is a semiconductor storage device. The first manufactured computers used magnetic drums and William tubes for data
MRAM. These advanced designs are aimed to resolve the current hindrances of MRAM technology; mainly, lowering manufacturing costs while increasing memory density. Due to MRAM’s more expensive production costs and larger relative size than DRAM and Flash RAM, they are slowly being integrated into electronics devices.
