Packet The basic unit of data transported across a network; contains data and metadata (like destination IP).
Internet A global, open network of computing devices communicating using the same protocols.
World Wide Web (WWW) The part of the Internet that consists of content (like HTML) shared using the HTTP protocol.
IP (Internet Protocol) The protocol used for addressing and routing data; uses IP addresses to uniquely identify devices.
DMS (Domain Name System) Translates a website's human-readable name (e.g., google.com) into its numerical IP address.
TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) A reliable protocol that ensures all packets arrive in order and without loss (handles re transmission and reordering).
UDP (User Datagram Protocol) A faster, unreliable protocol that does not guarantee delivery or order and does not re transmit lost packets.
Latency The time difference between when data is sent and when it is received.
Bit Rate The number of bits of data that are sent each second.
Bandwidth The maximum bit rate (data speed) a system is capable of achieving.
Redundancy Having multiple paths connecting each server so packets can be transmitted through various routes.
Fault Tolerance The ability of a network to continue working even if one or multiple components are failing.
TLS (Transport Layer Security) A cryptographic protocol that provides secure communication over a network.
HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) The secure version of HTTP; uses TLS to encrypt the connection.
Symmetric Encryption Uses a single, secret key for both encrypting and decrypting data
Asymmetric Encryption Uses two paired keys: a public key for encryption and a private key for decryption (more secure).
Digital Certificate Proves the ownership of an encryption key (specifically a public key) to verify identity.
Scalability The ability of a system (network) to expand and handle growth in size and demand.
Digital Divide The lack of access to the internet (and digital resources) for some individuals or communities.
IP Address Hierarchy The organization where the first sequence of bits represents the network and the final bits represent the individual device (node).

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
