  3. File system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_system

    Without a file system, applications could access the storage in incompatible ways that lead to resource contention, data corruption and data loss. There are many file system designs and implementations – with various structure and features and various resulting characteristics such as speed, flexibility, security, size and more.

  4. Broadband remote access server - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadband_remote_access_server

    A broadband remote access server (BRAS, B-RAS or BBRAS) routes traffic to and from broadband remote access devices such as digital subscriber line access multiplexers (DSLAM) on an Internet service provider's (ISP) network. [1] [2] BRAS can also be referred to as a broadband network gateway or border network gateway (BNG). [3]

  5. Network access control - Wikipedia

    Network access control (NAC) is an approach to computer security that attempts to unify endpoint security technology (such as antivirus, host intrusion prevention, and vulnerability assessment), user or system authentication and network security enforcement.

  6. Block-level storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block-level_storage

    Block-level storage is in contrast to an object store or 'bucket store', such as Amazon S3 (simple storage service), or to a database. These operate at a higher level of abstraction and are able to work with entities such as files, documents, images, videos or database records. [4] Instance stores are another form of cloud-hosted block-level ...

    The state-change notification (SCN) service allows an iSNS server to issue notifications about each event that affects storage nodes on the managed network. Each iSNS client may register for notifications on behalf of its storage nodes, and each client is expected to respond according to its own requirements and implementation.

  9. Memory protection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_protection

    An attempt to access unauthorized [a] memory results in a hardware fault, e.g., a segmentation fault, storage violation exception, generally causing abnormal termination of the offending process. Memory protection for computer security includes additional techniques such as address space layout randomization and executable-space protection.
