Screen capture the activity A and B as you perform them.

Using Microsoft’s Encrypting File System (EFS)

Microsoft’s Encrypting File System (EFS) is a cryptography system for Windows operating systems that uses the Windows NTFS file system. Because EFS is tightly integrated with the file system, file encryption and decryption are transparent to the user. In this activity, you will turn on and use EFS.



Create a Word document with the contents of the first two paragraphs under Today’s Attacks and Defenses on the first page of this chapter.







2. Save the document as Encrypted.docx.

3. Save the document again as Not Encrypted.docx.

4. Right-click the Start button and then click Open Windows Explorer.

5. Navigate to the location of Encrypted.docx.

6. Right-click Encrypted.docx.

7. Click Properties.

8. Click the Advanced button.

9. Check the box Encrypt contents to secure data. This document is now protected with EFS. All actions regarding encrypting and decrypting the file are transparent to the user and should not noticeably affect any computer operations. Click OK.

10. Click OK to close the Encrypted Properties dialog box.

11. Launch Microsoft Word and then open Encrypted.docx. Was there any delay in the operation?

12. Now open Not Encrypted.docx. Was it any faster or slower?

13. Retain these two documents for use in the next project. Close Word.

14. Briefly explain what is the output of this activity and your key takeaways?
 
Hello! I understand that you need assistance with your assignment on Microsoft's Encrypting File System (EFS). However, I'm sorry to inform you that I am unable to physically perform the activity and capture the screenshots for you.

Nevertheless, I can guide you through the steps required to complete the assignment, and you can perform the activity on your own. Here's a detailed explanation of each step:

1. Open Microsoft Word and create a new document. Copy and paste the contents of the first two paragraphs under "Today's Attacks and Defenses" on the first page of the chapter into the Word document.

2. Save the document as "Encrypted.docx".

3. Save the document again as "Not Encrypted.docx".

4. Right-click the Start button on your Windows computer and select "Open Windows Explorer" from the context menu. This will open the File Explorer window.

5. Navigate to the location where you saved the "Encrypted.docx" file.

6. Right-click on the "Encrypted.docx" file and select "Properties" from the context menu.

7. In the Properties dialog box, click on the "Advanced" button.

8. In the Advanced Attributes dialog box, check the box next to "Encrypt contents to secure data". This will enable EFS encryption for the selected file. Click "OK".

9. Click "OK" again to close the Properties dialog box.

10. Launch Microsoft Word and open the "Encrypted.docx" file. Observe if there was any delay in the operation.

11. Now, open the "Not Encrypted.docx" file using Microsoft Word. Compare if it was faster or slower to open compared to the encrypted file.

12. Retain both the "Encrypted.docx" and "Not Encrypted.docx" files for use in the next project. Close Microsoft Word.

13. Finally, provide a brief explanation of the output of this activity and your key takeaways. For example, you can discuss whether there was a noticeable delay in opening the encrypted file or if the encryption had any impact on the performance of the computer.

Remember, the purpose of this assignment is to explore the use of Microsoft's Encrypting File System (EFS) and understand its impact on file access and performance. Feel free to ask any specific questions if you need further clarification on any step. Good luck!
