I had a vista computer with a failing hard drive. I took the hd out and used a different computer to recover data. I can see the data on computer used for recovery, however, when the data is moved to new computer with windows 7 the folder shows it is empty. Properties of the folder shows over 7 gig and when attempting to change permissions on folder it scans all the files in folder but without success.

Security is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. The main goal of security is protecting assets, and an asset is anything of value and worthy of protection.  Information Security is a discipline of protecting information assets from threats through safeguards to achieve the objectives of confidentiality, integrity, and availability or CIA for short. On the other hand, disclosure, alteration, and disruption (DAD) compromise the security objectives.
