WaterAid found the 10 countries with limited sanitation are in sub-Saharan Africa, with Ethiopia having the highest percentage. More people have access to cell phones than toilets. About 30% of the world’s population lacks access to a […]
Industrial Rope Access (IRA) is a safe and effective way to work in difficult or dangerous locations. Trained workers use special tools and two ropes attached to separate anchor points for safety. IRA has its origins in recreational rope work and is recognized globally as a safe method for working in hard-to-reach areas. The equipment […]
Roof access can be achieved through stairs and doors or trap doors and windows. Attic access is sometimes included but usually closed off. Access is required in larger structures for safety reasons. Ventilation and light can also be achieved through roof hatches and mechanized roof openings. Attic stairs are another type of access. Local regulations […]
Over 1.6 million Americans lack access to full plumbing, with Alaska having the highest rate of households without it. Globally, 1 billion people have no access to sanitation. People use the bathroom 2,500 times a year on average, and only 1 in 20 wash their hands for the recommended time. Older toilets use up to […]
Access development is a sought-after skill by various industries, requiring experience in coding and database design. Specializing in a niche can improve employment chances, and education requirements include training certificates or a degree in computer science. Experience and specialized skills are also necessary for success. The field of Access development is a versatile skill that […]
An Access developer creates and maintains databases, generates reports, troubleshoots technical issues, and ensures proper design for data integrity. They configure tables, create data entry forms, and modify tables as needed. Reporting is done to provide valuable information to business managers. Troubleshooting technical issues is also a responsibility, and knowledge of SQL, macros, SQL servers, […]
Over half of the world’s population, or 3.9 billion people, will have internet access by the end of 2018, up from just 20% a decade ago. Mobile technologies have helped fuel recent increases, with Africa seeing the strongest growth from 2.1% in 2005 to 24.4% in 2018. Online growth is slowing, however, with a 5.5% […]
Web access management restricts access to certain pages on a website, assigning credentials and privileges to users. It also tracks user activity, archives log files, and detects failed attempts to access the network. It maintains a secure network while allowing authorized users to perform relevant tasks. Web access management is a type of security process […]
Many countries have low internet access rates, with Myanmar and East Timor having the lowest at 0.1%. Over 120 countries have an internet penetration rate of less than 23.8%. The US has a DPI of 77%, while Burkina Faso and Cambodia have a DPI of 0.5%. The Falkland Islands, Iceland, and Norway have the highest […]
Universal broadband connectivity is viewed as a necessity, but many areas lack affordable access due to factors such as population density, infrastructure, and government policy. There is no universal definition of broadband, and speeds vary widely between countries. Urban areas have better access than rural areas due to cost and technology limitations. Government policies can […]
Linux remote access allows users to access their operating system from another computer, either through the entire desktop or command line. Secure connections can be made using SSH, while VNC is used for remote desktop access. Both can be accessed from other operating systems with the necessary clients installed. Linux remote access allows a user […]
Access point software allows multiple computers to share a single internet connection through a virtual network connection. It can be web-based or create virtual routers. Encryption and authentication are core components. It can be used for home users or enterprise-scale virtual routers. Access point (AP) software allows multiple computers on a local area network (LAN) […]
Setting up an access point for a wireless network involves configuring the WLAN, determining the best location, assigning an IP address, mounting the device, configuring and testing the connection. Avoid metal obstructions or microwaves. Configure the access point using a web-based interface and test the connection. People interested in setting up wireless capabilities for their […]
Mandatory Access Control (MAC) is a security approach where an administrator sets access controls and the system enforces them, preventing users from overriding them. It is important for high-security systems and can be useful in preventing unauthorized activities and unintentional changes. It contrasts with discretionary access control, where users can override security settings. Mandatory Access […]
An Access programmer creates programs using Microsoft Access and is well-versed in database concepts and programming techniques. Access is easy to learn and popular, with many tutorials and forums available. Access programming jobs are plentiful, and classes provide hands-on training. However, Access has limitations on size and user capacity, and larger systems require enterprise-grade databases. […]
Access time is the time between a data request and its provision. Memory latency, seek time, and network latency are types of access time. Hard drives and optical discs have rotational lag, seek time, and transfer time. Bit rate is often advertised as the speed of the drive, making it difficult to determine actual access […]
Network Access Control (NAC) restricts access to programs and functions on a private network. Authentication is the most common approach, with administrators setting up credentials and access rights. Additional security measures include firewalls, spyware detection, and virus protection. Software packages are available for customizable security options. Network Access Control or NAC is one of the […]
The Object Access Method (OAM) is a file storage system used only with z/OS®. It can hold up to 2GB of data and catalogs the entire set of files as a unit, reducing memory usage. OAM turns each file into a stream, making it easier to access. The Object Access Method (OAM) is used to […]
Network access management controls who can connect to a computer network, often requiring minimum standards or identity verification. It minimizes the risk of damage or intrusion and can provide different degrees of access. Identity verification is common, and post-admittance management monitors behavior after access is granted. Network access management is a broad term used to […]
