Electronic access to online media is constantly changing. New technologies carry unique and unprecedented dangers and risks for children. The Holy Bible says: “Wisdom is for protection the same as money is for protection (Ecclesiastes 7:12) -” You can achieve anything with wisdom or with money, but being wise has many advantages. “In addition to understanding how to avoid The dangers of browsing online is imperative.
The Internet should not be a tool to threaten and endanger the safety of anyone, much less … children. Have a basic knowledge of how the Internet works and the use of instant messaging, browsing web pages or participating in other online activities; do not certify that one is too old or uneducated to learn. Children who have access to the network need adult supervision. Parents really need to keep up with Internet trends and technology. Parents should remember: many young people gain access to the cloud through cell phones, video game consoles, and other portable devices.
Young people are taught to drive a car safely. Parents can take a similar approach with using the Internet. One cannot forever restrict their children from operating a motor vehicle, but they can restrict Internet access and use. While both activities are dangerous, monitoring a child’s use of the Internet and letting them know that you are is not an invasion of their space or an invasion of their privacy – the World Wide Web is a public forum. In the United States, the FBI constantly reminds parents or their children’s access to online accounts, contacts, and email on a random basis. A UK cloud study found that “almost 1 in 7 young people aged 8-20 has access to the Internet in their bedroom. Many hobbyists and advocates for children recommend that parents keep the computer on a busy area of the home.This practice can help control Internet activity and can encourage children to avoid undesirable websites.
Decisions involving children’s Internet use, the length of time, and the sites they can and cannot visit could provide central guidance and a firm understanding of the risks and dangers of the cloud.
In 2009, the IIOF (International Institute of Health) launched monitoring the health of more than 100,000 American children from birth to 21 years of age. This study has been collecting data with a wide variety of tools. The study staff were expected to use 8,000 tablet PCs, which profess to transmit data securely to the central coordination center via VPN (Virtual Private Network). This data will be stored in silos of Oracle and SQL Server. “The size of the central database will certainly be many terabytes,” says Sarah Keim, the study’s Deputy Director of Operations and Logistics, in an interview with Information Week Magazine, as reported by Marianne Kolbasuk McGee.
The values taught and the examples established will go much further in protecting children with access to the cloud. Follow-up and follow-up will only go so far. An open line of communication with children is the best line of defense against the ravages of the Web. Explaining the dangers of “bad” people and defining pornography are several reasons why you should never communicate with strangers.
Internet software and program controls are not foolproof. Many ISPs (Internet Service Providers) may offer parental controls that act as “guardrails” (Ruby on Rails abbreviated as RoR, Ruby on Rails (also known as Rails) is an open source web application framework, written in Ruby ( object-oriented programming language), for developing database-backed web applications. RoR closely follows the Model-View-Control (MVC) pattern, where models, views, and controllers are fully seamlessly integrated) attempts to block ” “Inappropriate Pop-ups and Access to Harmful Sites” Several other software programs also prevent children from divulging personal information, namely names and addresses.
“IIOF study teams collect and analyze genetic, biological and environmental samples from children of different racial groups, income and education levels, and locations,” says McGee. “The IT architecture must support about 1,000 investigators and federal staff in more than 100 locations. It must meet federal standards for data management and security, but be reasonably easy to use,” Keim says.
VPN and .NET applications are being used for the study project. Westat’s best application modules serve as the focal point for the research, in conjunction with a variety of other vendors as well, namely Booz Allen Hamilton and IMS Integrator.
The reality, of course, is that children cannot be monitored when they are away from home. Therefore, it is important to install proper values in children so that they make wiser decisions when they are not in the presence of adult supervision, ruling adults must clearly explain what the consequences will be if the rules relating to the Cloud are broken. If it is broken, the rules, penalties and restrictions will be implemented.
Until next time …
