1 00:00:01,150 --> 00:00:08,120 OK so now that we have cubes installed and we booted into it and we logged in and this lecture I want 2 00:00:08,120 --> 00:00:15,080 to give you a very basic overview of the operating system and then we'll get to use it more and more 3 00:00:15,140 --> 00:00:17,730 as we go through the course. 4 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:24,920 So as soon as you log in you will probably see this window right here which is a configuration window 5 00:00:25,100 --> 00:00:26,870 for the next Gateway. 6 00:00:26,870 --> 00:00:34,010 This is the gateway that will direct all the data that we send to the Internet and force it to go through 7 00:00:34,010 --> 00:00:35,830 the Tor network. 8 00:00:35,900 --> 00:00:40,810 Now before configuring this I want to give you an overview of the operating system. 9 00:00:40,820 --> 00:00:46,640 Like I said so I'm going to keep this to the side because I want to connect to the Internet first before 10 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,790 we configured this the first impression. 11 00:00:49,790 --> 00:00:55,130 You'll probably notice that this looks very similar to a lot of Linux operating systems. 12 00:00:55,130 --> 00:01:01,280 You have a status bar in here that shows the running applications and on the left here you have a menu 13 00:01:01,490 --> 00:01:06,740 which allows you to run various applications in this operating system. 14 00:01:06,740 --> 00:01:12,410 You'll notice we can run a terminal in here which is very similar to Linux terminals like I said and 15 00:01:12,410 --> 00:01:18,670 runs a lot of Linux commands plus some cube specific commands. 16 00:01:18,870 --> 00:01:25,210 Other than this you will also notice that we have system tools menu which allows you to access different 17 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,530 applications related to the operating system. 18 00:01:28,660 --> 00:01:32,830 The one that you'll be using the most is the settings manager. 19 00:01:32,830 --> 00:01:38,230 Again this is very similar to the settings application you get on a lot of Linux this throws and that 20 00:01:38,230 --> 00:01:42,170 allows you to change the various settings of the operating system. 21 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:49,360 You can change the appearance the desktop the background the windows the mouse and keyboard the languages 22 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:50,710 and so on. 23 00:01:50,710 --> 00:01:55,540 I've actually used this to modify the font size and the icons and even the theme here on top. 24 00:01:55,540 --> 00:02:01,380 So you'll notice the theme that I have right now is slightly different than what you see on your desktop. 25 00:02:01,390 --> 00:02:03,220 If you just install cubes. 26 00:02:03,220 --> 00:02:08,640 The reason why I did this is just to make it a little bit more readable and easy for you to see what 27 00:02:08,640 --> 00:02:09,120 I'm doing. 28 00:02:09,340 --> 00:02:12,490 If you're watching this from a small screen or from a phone. 29 00:02:13,420 --> 00:02:18,850 So very simple settings you can click on whatever center you want to modify and then you can modify 30 00:02:18,850 --> 00:02:22,420 the different settings just like any other operating system. 31 00:02:22,420 --> 00:02:23,970 So it's very very intuitive. 32 00:02:23,980 --> 00:02:30,100 And there is no point of wasting time on this again in the system tools other than the settings manager 33 00:02:30,370 --> 00:02:36,260 you will find various settings and various applications that you can use to configure your system. 34 00:02:36,340 --> 00:02:40,870 So you have the package manager where you can install different programs in different packages. 35 00:02:40,870 --> 00:02:45,040 You have the data where you can check for updates and update the system. 36 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:49,440 You will have your cubes manager and we'll talk about that in details later on. 37 00:02:49,630 --> 00:02:52,600 You'll have the global settings for the operating system. 38 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,690 Again we'll talk about that later on. 39 00:02:54,730 --> 00:03:00,790 You have your backups you have your updates again screen saver and so on so you can spend some time 40 00:03:00,790 --> 00:03:05,830 with this trying to familiarize yourself with it or just keep this in mind that you have the system 41 00:03:05,830 --> 00:03:11,920 tools in here in case you wanted to modify any settings related to your system. 42 00:03:12,340 --> 00:03:18,550 Other than this everything else you see in this menu will allow you to launch applications and all of 43 00:03:18,550 --> 00:03:25,480 these applications are categorized or grouped based on different security domains and different virtual 44 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:26,530 machines. 45 00:03:26,530 --> 00:03:33,190 And we'll talk about that in more details later on Now moving on to the right on the status bar you 46 00:03:33,190 --> 00:03:38,740 will see that we have four different boxes each box of these is a desktop. 47 00:03:38,950 --> 00:03:45,670 So again this is similar to a lot of Linux this rose and even OS X so you can have multiple workspaces 48 00:03:45,670 --> 00:03:50,950 where you can launch different applications and manage your windows and you can easily navigate through 49 00:03:50,950 --> 00:03:57,070 them using this status bar in here by simply clicking on the workspace you want to go to or using the 50 00:03:57,070 --> 00:03:59,360 control of right or left. 51 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:03,520 So control of an arrow to navigate between them. 52 00:04:04,390 --> 00:04:07,310 So for example we already have this window open in here. 53 00:04:07,390 --> 00:04:14,740 And if I go to the second workspace in here I can open my terminal and I can easily navigate between 54 00:04:14,740 --> 00:04:21,340 them in here by simply clicking at the workspace or by doing control all left to go back to the first 55 00:04:21,350 --> 00:04:22,870 workspace or control. 56 00:04:22,870 --> 00:04:29,110 All right to go back to where I have the terminal open at my second workspace. 57 00:04:29,490 --> 00:04:30,660 Moving on to the right. 58 00:04:30,660 --> 00:04:36,540 Again we have our time and data calendar we have the audio settings we say that we have the network 59 00:04:36,540 --> 00:04:37,020 settings. 60 00:04:37,350 --> 00:04:43,680 So if we click on this you can see first of all we have the Internet network which you're seeing disconnected. 61 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:47,690 This is because I don't have our wire connected to the computer. 62 00:04:47,820 --> 00:04:53,730 If you want to connect to an Internet network just plug the other net cable into your computer and you 63 00:04:53,730 --> 00:04:59,010 should be able to see the network in here and all you have to do is literally click on the network and 64 00:04:59,010 --> 00:05:00,720 connect to connect to it. 65 00:05:01,860 --> 00:05:07,970 Alternatively if you add a connect over Wi-Fi again for me you can see it seemed disconnected but it's 66 00:05:07,970 --> 00:05:11,440 less than all the Wi-Fi networks around me. 67 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:17,310 Now if you have a wireless card in your computer but you're not seeing any networks that means that 68 00:05:17,310 --> 00:05:20,190 you need to install the drivers for your card. 69 00:05:20,310 --> 00:05:23,580 And this really depends on the chipset used in the card. 70 00:05:23,580 --> 00:05:29,130 So you'll have to go and Google and research the chips it used and see if it's compatible with cubes 71 00:05:29,340 --> 00:05:30,010 if it is. 72 00:05:30,060 --> 00:05:32,550 You'll have to see how to install the drivers. 73 00:05:32,670 --> 00:05:38,940 In my case I was lucky cubes is able to detect my Wi-Fi card automatically without having to install 74 00:05:38,940 --> 00:05:39,680 anything. 75 00:05:39,690 --> 00:05:45,840 So all I have to do is literally click on the network that I want to connect to put the Wi-Fi password 76 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:54,470 and perfect as you can see the icon here changed to an icon that is showing me the signal strength. 77 00:05:54,470 --> 00:05:59,780 And it's also saying in the name of the network that I connected to and if I click on it we can see 78 00:06:00,020 --> 00:06:04,100 that we are connected to this network and we can click here to disconnect. 79 00:06:04,670 --> 00:06:10,430 So right now I should have internet connection on this computer but I'm not going to open any websites. 80 00:06:10,430 --> 00:06:13,130 We'll talk about that later on. 81 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:19,070 So we're just going to move on just talking about the basics of cubes and the next icons that we have 82 00:06:19,070 --> 00:06:21,660 in here is the clipboard icon. 83 00:06:21,830 --> 00:06:27,860 And this is basically where you'll see whatever you have copied because copy and pasting in this operating 84 00:06:27,860 --> 00:06:33,200 system is slightly different than what you're used to in other operating systems. 85 00:06:33,230 --> 00:06:36,360 Again to improve the security of the system. 86 00:06:36,770 --> 00:06:39,020 Next we have the device manager. 87 00:06:39,020 --> 00:06:45,680 So in here you have all of the devices connected to this computer right now and using this menu you 88 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:50,120 can select where do you want to connect each of these devices. 89 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:57,350 So as we mentioned cubes is designed to improve the security by separating and isolating the different 90 00:06:57,350 --> 00:06:59,540 components of the system. 91 00:06:59,570 --> 00:07:06,290 Therefore when you connect a USB device or any type of a device you'll have to explicitly say which 92 00:07:06,290 --> 00:07:09,160 domain you want to connect this device to. 93 00:07:09,170 --> 00:07:14,510 Now I know this sounds a little bit vague right now but we'll use it in the future and you'll see how 94 00:07:14,510 --> 00:07:20,660 you can connect different devices to specific security domains and you'll understand how this actually 95 00:07:20,660 --> 00:07:29,010 improves our security next we have the storage manager and you can see the storage devices connected 96 00:07:29,010 --> 00:07:30,300 to this computer. 97 00:07:30,330 --> 00:07:34,900 Right now we can also see this Cusick of our system. 98 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:41,310 Next we have the cubes manager which is something that we will spend a lot of time talking about again 99 00:07:41,310 --> 00:07:42,580 later on. 100 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:50,940 Basically what it does is it shows you the amount of resources each cube or each virtual machine is 101 00:07:50,940 --> 00:07:57,950 using at the moment and by hovering over any of these virtual machines will be able to enter its settings. 102 00:07:57,990 --> 00:08:03,550 We'll be able to posit shut it down or run a terminal inside the virtual machine. 103 00:08:03,870 --> 00:08:10,980 If you just go down to the last option in here open Cuba's manager you'll get the cube Virtual Machine 104 00:08:10,980 --> 00:08:17,370 Manager which allows us to modify various settings of all the installed virtual machines and see their 105 00:08:17,370 --> 00:08:19,840 status update them and all that. 106 00:08:19,890 --> 00:08:23,340 And like I said we will spend a full lecture talking about this. 107 00:08:23,340 --> 00:08:25,540 So don't worry about it for now. 108 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,920 Just wanted to show you where it is and how to enter the cube. 109 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:37,390 Manager finally we have the update icon in here you'll only see this if there are updates available. 110 00:08:37,390 --> 00:08:41,800 Again you can click on it and launch the updates to update your installation. 111 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:43,930 We have the power settings beside that. 112 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:50,240 And finally we have our user which is in my case John clicking on this will allow you to lock the screen 113 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,080 and suspend shut down or log out. 114 00:08:54,040 --> 00:09:00,100 So as you can see very simple and intuitive interface you're probably able to figure out most of the 115 00:09:00,100 --> 00:09:02,950 things that I was speaking about earlier by yourself. 116 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:08,680 But I just wanted to make sure that I cover everything in here before we dive deeper into this operating 117 00:09:08,680 --> 00:09:09,460 system. 118 00:09:09,460 --> 00:09:15,610 And I also wanted to cover how all of these are virtual machines in here so that you get an idea of 119 00:09:15,610 --> 00:09:18,400 what's coming in the next lectures. 120 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:23,040 Now I'm going to go back to the window that I said you'll see as soon as you log into the computer. 121 00:09:23,470 --> 00:09:27,640 So like I said this Windows is related to the Unix Gateway. 122 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:32,770 This is the gateway that will force all traffic to go through the Tor network. 123 00:09:32,770 --> 00:09:38,740 So this is something that we actually do want to configure and you can see the options in here are very 124 00:09:38,740 --> 00:09:42,580 similar to the options that we see when we first launched the browser. 125 00:09:42,910 --> 00:09:49,660 So we can leave it at Kinect to just Kinect simply to the TOR network we can click configure if you 126 00:09:49,660 --> 00:09:53,210 want to use a bridge or a plug about transport. 127 00:09:53,210 --> 00:09:58,870 Now if you don't remember what reduce unplug all transports are please go back and revise the lectures 128 00:09:58,870 --> 00:10:04,300 while I cover them because I cover them in details uncovered multiple ways on how to get bridges and 129 00:10:04,510 --> 00:10:08,600 unplug all transports and why you might want to use them. 130 00:10:08,680 --> 00:10:13,900 Therefore I'm just going to keep this at connect at the basic setting and I'm going to click on Next. 131 00:10:14,560 --> 00:10:19,300 And this has just shown us a summary that we're going to be connecting to the terror network. 132 00:10:19,420 --> 00:10:22,670 The bridges are disabled and we're not using any proxies. 133 00:10:22,690 --> 00:10:23,460 So that's fine. 134 00:10:23,470 --> 00:10:29,790 We're going to click on Next and perfect as you can see right now it's telling us that we are connected 135 00:10:29,790 --> 00:10:31,260 to the terror network. 136 00:10:31,290 --> 00:10:35,430 Now keep in mind please don't go and start browsing straight away. 137 00:10:35,490 --> 00:10:41,380 Not all web browsers in this operating system will forward traffic through the Tor network. 138 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:47,820 So don't just go and access dark web web sites right now wait for the next lectures and I will explain 139 00:10:47,820 --> 00:10:53,850 to you the different web browsers and the different gateways inside this cool operating system.
