Metadata Management
(Including removal)
So why not just
download a freebie
software removal tool?
FREEBIES ARE
DANGEROUS.
Many carry Trojans
into your computer.

Metadata ManagementWhere to get trustworthy software?
I use www.cnet.com
They virus-check their stuff quite carefully
(But you STILL need your own anti-virus software)
I decide try out "File Buddy" on the Mac.
It has **** rating ...

They're GONE. Nobody to answer

MORAL: Check for 'liveness' first, on free software.

Metadata ManagementMicrosoft Operating Systems
Windows XP's meta-information access tools
could damage the metadata in JPG and other files.
Windows Vista and 7 are SUPPOSED to be safe ... but...

Some Metadata FormatsIPTC is International Press Telecommunications Council
- What's an IPTC code? http://www.iptc.org/cms/site/index.html?channel=CH0088
Examples:subj:01000000 – arts, culture and entertainment
subj:01005000 – cinema
subj:01005001 – film festival

Bridge's Limitations
However: Bridge can only edit
the IPTC and some other metadata – and
there is much more out there
that needs editing!

EXIFtoolEXIF is a Command Line Tool
Windows Console: Inherited DOS commands
(A granddaughtrer of Unix' command set)
Mac Console ("Terminal"):
Uses UNIX/Linux Commands
So you need to know a minimal set of these commands!
![Page 25: 1 Information Management DIG 3563 Spring 2012 Lecture 15:Metadata Removal J. Michael Moshell University of Central Florida Original image* by Moshell et.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081514/56649d895503460f94a6e6a4/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Unix CommandsPractice these on sulley via telnet
macishly: open Terminal, then
>ssh [email protected]
"ssh" means "secure shell". Replace 'youraccount'
with your Sulley login, which is usually your NID.
You will be asked for your password.
NOTE: This only works (a) on campus, or (b) via VPN

Unix CommandsI will demonstrate via Mac's Terminal.
Windows folk: Find out the same for your system
- but you must know the UNIX stuff, for exams
>ls : "list", shows the current directory
>ls –la : "list long form", shows details
>cd mywork : moves viewpoint into the 'mywork' dir.
If there is only one file that starts with 'my', you can
also type cd my*
(It's a very convenient short-cut.)

Unix Commands
>pwd

-- A good way to ask "where am I" in the file hierarchy.("pathway describe:")
How to delete a file:
>rm fileb :deletes fileb, usually without warning.

Important note: When someone accesses your
website (.html, .php, etc.) they are strangers
and your script's privileges are set to that value.
EXERCISE: With the privileges set as above,
would a PHP script be allowed to overwrite
(i. e. to replace) the file map1.html?

EXIFtool(why do I trust this download?)
- download directly from a reputable university site
- well regarded by several external reviews
- site is ** extremely ** alive/active
** but it could still be risky ... if you have a PC,
make SURE your anti-virus is up to date!

Experimenting with EXIFtool
Key concepts:
tag name:
has no spaces, e. g. ImageWidth
tag ID:
a machine representation; e. g. 0x0100
description:

Now, how can find out how to REMOVE data?
Most Unix tools are self-explaining.

arcane Unix command:
<<Any time you hear a word from me, if you don't
know what it means, LOOK IT UP.
<< All such words are fair game in the brutal sport
of examination-writing.
Arcane (adjective:) Understood by few;
mysterious or secret.

know what it means, LOOK IT UP.
<< All such words are fair game in the brutal sport
of examination-writing.
Here's a couple more arcane Unix commands:
ctrl-C and ctrl-D: These can (sometimes) STOP a
process that is taking too long (or seems stuck.)

I put the entire exiftool document on the course
website as a .doc file. (EXIF Documentation)
Searching therein, I found this: The special "All" tag may be used in this syntax only if a VALUE
is NOT given. This causes all meta information to be deleted (or
all information in a group if "-GROUP:All=" is used). Note that
not all groups are deletable. Use the -listd option for a
complete list of deletable groups.
So, I try >exiftool -listd

Try this:exiftool –GPS:ALL= gpsvictim.jpg
Now the directory contains
gpsvictim.jpg
gpsvictim.jpg_original
So I have a looksee:
>exiftool gpsvictim.jpg
AND all the GPS metadata is gone!

a) reliable, virus-free source
b) make sure it's a live source, for support.
- the powerful tool, exifTool, requires some learning
but can do many things quickly.
