Disinfection of Kids’ room

By Guest Author
When it comes to house cleaning we are used to kids’ room absolute hellions, tracking mud in and generally making a mess of their room. Even though the serious cleanup jobs are left in the hands of the janitors sometimes we need to do a little bit of that work ourselves. Parents are often faced with minor messes and stains, however the room in itself is a location filled with plenty of germs and bacteria. There are a few things you can do to improve the overall hygiene of the room and what you're using there and we have prepared some tips for you:

  1. Get rid of pencil sharpeners

    We all love the mechanical pencil sharpeners so common in most places, however they are one of the worst breeding grounds for bacteria since children love biting the ends of their pencils while thinking, just like almost all of us do compulsively. If one infected kid touches it the chances of any colds or diseases affecting said child to spread among his/her peers is very high. To prevent that either provide your kids with their own automatic pencils or buy an antibacterial pencil sharpener. In the worst cases you can simply use rubbing alcohol to sanitize whatever you can on your sharpener or if they are not automatic simply dipping them in some of it will solve that problem.

  2. Wipe everything

    The best way to sanitize the kids’ room is by doing so on every surface your children will touch. Most bacteria are very sturdy and live a pretty long time so make sure you wipe everything well and thoroughly. One of the worst places you'll find germs are computer keyboards and mice, door handles as well as desks, tables and chairs. Make sure you don't use strong disinfectants while the kids are there since they contain hazardous chemicals which need to evaporate. Regular sanitizing wipes will do the job.

  3. Disinfecting toys

    Toys are what the kids will touch the most and they'll easily carry germs from one kid to another, so make sure they are properly disinfected and taken care of. Kids can be awfully bad at sharing germs since these toys will be passed along, depending on the age of your children they might even put them in their mouths and so on. As you can imagine this will be a perfect breeding ground for all kinds of germs. Make sure you disinfect those toys regularly.

  4. Air filtration

    Although these will most likely not be present in your budget, an air filter will significantly affect the quality of air around the room, keeping allergens and contaminants to a minimum. A lot of germs are transmitted through the air so keeping one of those will sanitize and destroy contaminants thus making infection harder.

  5. Sanitize your hands
    Make sure you teach your kids to wash their hands for at least twenty seconds using soap so they can keep their hands clean. Nail biting can be a problem if your kids do it and the germs on their hands will easily find their way inside them that way. Keep some hand sanitizer handy and make sure they use it if you think it is necessary.

Preventing a Vulnerable Network with Good Patch Management

By Guest Author
Every admin knows the importance of good patch management, but not every admin knows the tips and tricks that make for a great patch management strategy. There is so much more to patching than just running Windows Updates, and in this article we’ll share with you the nine tips for great patch management to prevent your network from having vulnerabilities. 1. Stay informed You can’t fix it if you don’t know it’s broken, so staying informed is the right place to start. Subscribe to the security and patch bulletins from your operating system vendors and your critical application vendors. You really want to consider subscribing to a third party alert like the ones offered by SANS, Bugtraq, or others so you are aware of vulnerabilities even when there aren’t patches yet, and also to cover the smaller but no less important applications that are on your network. 2. Test your patches I’d rather deploy an untested patch than not patch at all, but I’d really prefer to test all patches fi...

How To Maximize Real Time Communications

By Guest Author
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and the primary rate interface (PRI) services that come with the infrastructure have given offices many different options when it comes to real time digital communications. Some of the features of these services can be integrated into an office so that problems are more quickly solved and communications become more efficient and cost-effective. These ways to maximize real time communications in the office can rely on intrinsic features of the technology or they can involve carefully chosen suites of applications that work together. Session initiation protocol (SIP) forking is a feature of many business VoIP services . SIP forking allows a single digital channel to be forwarded to multiple destinations. This can be used to send a call from a single phone to multiple other devices.
