What is an Exchange Wildcard Certificate, and how does it work. An Exchange wildcard certificate is a type SSL certificate that protects your primary domain, also known as a (Fully Qualified Domain Name), and an unlimited number of sub-domains on any first-level. It secures the main domain and its other first-level sub-domain; a few examples are www.yourdomain.com, mail.yourdomain.com, and login.yourdomain.com all these are covered by the exchange wildcard certificate. Microsoft Exchange server developed by Microsoft is a mail server which is used as a messaging and collaboration platform in enterprise IT environments. It can only be used on systems running under Windows operating systems. Before 2007 exchange servers didn’t mandate SSL certificates, this meant data transmitted was unencrypted. Microsoft made it mandatory for one to install Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)/ Transport Layer Security (TLS) certificates on future servers to ensure that data being transmitted remains encrypted over HTTP connection. An Exchange Wildcard is just a regular wildcard SSL certificate that you install on a Microsoft Exchange server. When installed, it should provide an Industry-standard 2048bit RSA signature key and 256bit…

changes in technology “In our day, in our culture, with the internet, pluralistic society… you can’t assume you have a common meaning for the words we use.” I agree…, changes in technology, as we understand every well, incline to provoke cultural and linguistic change, too. It is the reason why you cannot assume you have a common meaning for the words we use, some times a year; dictionaries proclaim the addition of new and typically very trendy words. The fast speed at which the internet has moved in and changed our lives has an impact on the language and terms we use. For instance, it is many years since the creation of website Dictionary.com, and it has viewed back at the past to understand how the world wide web has generated further definitions to several commonly used words. It is the same thing happening the two terms; Religion and Christian. How words and our life histories affect the sharing and understanding of information Words and life histories when articulated and said in the right manner, can change our minds. They…

Climate Change essay Climate change is a natural phenomenon that I have not been in a position to explain correctly. Based on its name, I thought that climate change occurs due to changes in the earth’s natural processes.  I was also not able to distinguish between climate change and global warming since I thought it’s the same thing.  However, I have come to realize that global warming is just one aspect of climate change and that human activities such as emission of greenhouse gases into the air is the leading cause of climate change. It is a global challenge that has no borders because it can affect all countries.  I have read that climate change is a future problem, and thus, countries should devise mechanisms to prevent the occurrence of this natural phenomenon. This has brought me to the question; Can human activities in the African continent produce a climate change that can also affect the American continent? Human beings are responsible for climate change and are also responsible for taking care of the environment. Much debate is, however, needed…

Demographic Changes Demography is the process of counting individuals and also finding out the forces that are making the population change over time and their impact on an individual’s way of life. A good example is an immigration and how it affects the population of a country. Unlike the traditional years, this is an era where all the parents both the mother and the father work, so are the parents okay with their children staying at home with house helps or is it the nature of the situation, how the rise of most millennial young adults is bringing up a generation with no specific religion.

 alternative energy and climate change debate between leading Canadian scientists and climate change activist David Suzuki The document is a transcript of the alternative energy and climate change debate between leading Canadian scientists and climate change activist David Suzuki. It was recorded from a public forum meeting that saw the meeting of several stakeholders in the energy sector. Scientist: we do understand your enthusiasm as well as your vigor when it comes to addressing the topic of Canada’s energy future. But what we have right in front of us is a science-based discussion about the future of energy considering the welfare of the nation. Research that we have conducted reveals that close to 80% of crude oil is consumed by the transportation sector while the remaining percentage goes into feedstock. Suzuki: the problem that is facing Canadians is simply fear and insecurity. Canadians feel insecure and scared about letting go of oil, which they consider a big driver of the economy as well as natural gas. In the near or even midterm future, we have to abandon oil and take…

 Nursing Area I Would like to Change Medical interventions, including nursing practice, ought to be wholesome and not focus only on the physical well-being of the patient but also other aspects of their being. The aspect of nursing that I would like to change is the way nurses take care of patients’ spiritual needs. My PICOT question is, can short causes improve patient spiritual care by nurses in the future? Recent studies have revealed that incorporating the spiritual dimension in health care can help patients face the disease more confidently than when treatment focuses only on the physical aspect of sickness. A study by Ratshikana-Moloko et al. (2020) showed that cancer patients who received spiritual care suffered less pain (2.82± 1.23 vs. 1.93± 1.69) and consequently used less morphine. Moreover, at least 88% of patients admitted in hospitals consider religion important to them (O’Brien, 2017). In their time of need, most people including those who previously are generally unspiritual turn to religion as source of comfort and strength. Out of the total number of survived, Cullen (2016), found out that…

Discussing Naomi Klein’s, “This Changes Everything” Naomi Klein mentions the Marshall plan for earth as a viable solution to address climate change and global warming. By the Marshall plan, she refers to pulling all resources together and systems to avert the climate crisis.  According to Klein, a mass climate movement stands as the strongest probable solution to saving the environment and is a historic opportunity for the current generation. Klein feels that the majority of individuals are still ignorant of the climate change issue, which only worsens the situation as little is done in formulating and following through with concrete policies. With the Marshall plan, environmental crisis becomes a pressing cause similar to politics and economics, and societies will hence be forced to act in ways and implement practices that are in line with minimizing environmental degradation (Klein). Not only will the Marshall plan lead to far-reaching changes in the environment, but will also minimize the gap between the rich and poor and massively improve lives. New jobs will be created that ensure the local economies run in coherence with the…
