Training camp and the security
I just installed Windows using Boot Camp 10, for the sole purpose of testing the Windows version of an application I'm developing. I still I have the feeling that it would create a completely separate system, and that neither OS would have access to the partition or files on the other. So, I was surprised to find a drive icon "BOOTCAMP" on my desktop Mac, giving access to all files on the Windows partition.
My concerns/questions are as follows:
1 Windows has access to files on my OS X partition? I don't want to I don't want Microsoft and others being able to access my folder (like their EULA permits), and in my humble OPINION Windows has a security generally lax, especially with a score of unencripted.
2 given that OS X can access the Windows partition, there chances that malicious software Windows could end up under OS X?
My system: early 2015 rMBP; OS X 10.11.3 with FileVault 2 active, Windows 10 with no encriptación.
Thanks in advance.

If you have installed the drivers from Boot Camp on Windows (if you have not, you should install them as soon as POSSIBLE), Windows can read your OS X partition, but it can not writeand vice versa. Apple has included a basic HFS + driver in Windows that allows you to access your files from OS X but ensure safety by not letting Windows to write part of the OS X from your hard drive.

As you can see above, Windows cannot write files to your OS X partition, there is no risk of that.

Training camp and the confusion of the merger
Sometimes, I have a specific need to run a few applications in Bootcamp and I have XP installed on a Bootcamp Partition.
I would also use VMWare Fusion for other applications Win I need to use more regularly - every day at work.
If I use my install Bootcamp to VMWare, I'll always be able to start in Bootcamp when required.
Thank you very much

Yes. It's one of the ways Fusion can be used and why it is so advantageous to the two as / when needed.

Windows 7 Boot Camp and the MacBook Pro clocks sync error
I have a dual boot MBPro (13-inch, mid-2012, non-retine) running El Capitan.
I installed Windows 7 32-bit, using Boot Camp, and everything works fine except there is a problem with the time.
Whenever I passes from Mac OS to Windows 7 & vice versa the time is displayed incorrectly.
not connected to the internet.
While I'm online things are fine clocks updated subsequently.
Ago a separate 05:30 hour on both partitions difference.
I was looking at the internet, seeking to solve this problem and suggested this solution:
Launch regedit.exe.
Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation.
Right-click anywhere in the right pane & hit NEW > DWORD (32 bit) value.Name RealTimeIsUniversal, and then double-click top & him give a value of 1.
Then, reboot to OS X and reboot in Windows. Now, this will result in a correct display of the time.
I'm not used to these changes, so before the well proceeding to be sure if this is a permanent, secure
solution OR is there something else that needs to be done?
Thank you!
Hi Sandeep,
Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.
Some of our community members reported that the solution you have included in your application got similar clock synchronization issues.
As a registry edit is a sensible step but you can try and check, but before that, you can take a backup of your registry.
To do: Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

d. If you are prompted, press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.
Note:
If your computer is not configured to start from a CD or a DVD, see the documentation provided with your computer. You may need to change your computer's BIOS settings. For more information, see BIOS: frequently asked questions.

f. click on repair your computer.
g. Select the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.

Is there a GUI, other than the Assistant Deputy Ministers and the Security Manager cisco IPSec of Cisco ASA5505/5510 test site to vpn tunnels. I usually go through the steps listed in here in the link below in the terminal window, but it sucks when you have several tunnels to keep abreast of.
http://www.nwdump.com/troubleshooting-IPSec-VPN-on-ASA/
I would have preferred one that works with Freebsd or LInux, as the cisco security manager CSM v4.1 is limited to only current running on windows server 2008 ent.
Thank you
Jason
No, for troubleshooting the best way is to use the CLI that will give you debug output on where it is lacking.
For configuration, outside the CLI, ASDM and CSM, unfortunately there is no other tool that works on Linux/Freebsd because it is more specific orders of the ASA and only limited to the CLI, ASDM, or CSM.
