The plural form of the noun "access" would be "accesses", but this plural form is only rarely if ever used, because "access" itself has similar properties to a collective noun, inasmuch as one can have access to some other particular thing through one or more means, without any need to specify any particular means of access. For example, with modern electronic banking, a depositor to a checking account can have access to the money deposited by writing a check on the account, by pressing proper keys on one's computer keyboard while electronically connecting to a computer at the bank where one has the account, by using a debit card, and/or by going in person to a bank office and requesting a withdrawal. No native speaker of English would be likely to use the noun "accesses" in such a situation.

Also note that "access" can also be a verb instead of a noun, and in that instance, access is already in its plural form.
