Seeking clarification on Access controls' scripts

[sree vidya]

Hi Community,

As I am trying to understand Access Controls, I have a few questions:

1. what it means if we have only "false" in script condition?

2. What is the role of security attribute condition and the difference between local and existing?

3. What is the GlideSecurityManager()?

4. What is "isPublic" here checking for, and the property?

Requesting the community to help me understand. Thanks in advance.
