Anonymously

I l @ ve RuBoard

Anonymous access is any connection a service supplies without authenticating the identity of the user . A number of information system services allow anonymous access, usually limited to "safe" access. However, this "safe" access can often be used to gather information or can be exploited to gain more access than expected.

There is no accountability with anonymous access. Activities can be monitored . However, with no identification information about the person performing the action, there is no way to associate the activities with an individual. Sometimes there is information on the source of the anonymous connection, but it is often unreliable.
