IT riskInformation technology risk, IT risk, IT-related risk, or cyber risk is any risk relating to information technology. While information has long been appreciated as a valuable and important asset, the rise of the knowledge economy and the Digital Revolution has led to organizations becoming increasingly dependent on information, information processing and especially IT. Various events or incidents that compromise IT in some way can therefore cause adverse impacts on the organization's business processes or mission, ranging from inconsequential to catastrophic in scale.
Sécurité InternetLa sécurité Internet est une branche de la sécurité informatique spécifiquement liés à l'Internet, impliquant souvent la sécurité du navigateur web, mais aussi la sécurité du réseau à un niveau plus général, car il s'applique à d'autres applications et au système d'exploitation dans son ensemble. Son objectif est d'établir des règles et des mesures visant à contrer les attaques sur Internet. L'Internet représente un canal non sécurisé pour l'échange d'informations conduisant à un risque élevé d'intrusion ou de fraude, tels que l'hameçonnage.
Effects of long-term benzodiazepine useThe effects of long-term benzodiazepine use include drug dependence as well as the possibility of adverse effects on cognitive function, physical health, and mental health. Long-term use is sometimes described as use not shorter than three months. Benzodiazepines are generally effective when used therapeutically in the short term, but even then the risk of dependency can be significantly high. There are significant physical, mental and social risks associated with the long-term use of benzodiazepines.
Budget constraintIn economics, a budget constraint represents all the combinations of goods and services that a consumer may purchase given current prices within his or her given income. Consumer theory uses the concepts of a budget constraint and a preference map as tools to examine the parameters of consumer choices . Both concepts have a ready graphical representation in the two-good case. The consumer can only purchase as much as their income will allow, hence they are constrained by their budget.
Thunderbolt (interface)Thunderbolt est un format de connexion informatique conçu par Intel, dont les travaux ont débuté en 2007, sous le nom de code Light Peak. Cette connexion devait utiliser à terme la fibre optique, bien que ses premières implantations utilisent des fils de cuivre standards. Cette interface permet l'utilisation des protocoles DisplayPort et PCI Express dans la même interface. Le connecteur Mini DisplayPort, qui était notamment déjà présent sur les ordinateurs d'Apple, a été choisi comme interface standard pour Thunderbolt.
Record linkageRecord linkage (also known as data matching, data linkage, entity resolution, and many other terms) is the task of finding records in a data set that refer to the same entity across different data sources (e.g., data files, books, websites, and databases). Record linkage is necessary when joining different data sets based on entities that may or may not share a common identifier (e.g., database key, URI, National identification number), which may be due to differences in record shape, storage location, or curator style or preference.
