From the User's Guide: "this rule enforces that all global variables are accessed by dedicated access subprograms, and that only those subprograms access the variables directly. If given with the keyword “protected” and/or “accept”, it enforces that global variables are accessed only by dedicated protected subprograms or tasks, ensuring that no race condition is possible" -- J-P.
