3. PROTOCOL
“A protocol is a set of rules for the exchange of data between a
terminal and computer or between two computers. Think of
protocol as a sort of recommunication agreement about the
form in which a message or data is to be sent and receipt is to
be acknowledge."
4. TRANSMISSION CONTROL
PROTOCOL (TCP)
This protocol ensures the delivery of information packets across network.
TCP is a standard that defines how to establish and maintain a network
conversation through which application programs can exchange data. TCP
works with the Internet Protocol (IP), which defines how computers send
packets of data to each other
5. INTERNET PROTOCOL (IP)
This important protocol is responsible for providing logical addressing called IP
address to route information between networks.
The Internet Protocol (IP) is the method or protocol by which data is sent
from one computer to another on the Internet. Each computer (known as a
host) on the Internet has at least one IP address that uniquely identifies it
from all other computers on the Internet.
6. HYPERTEXT TRANSFER PROTOCOL
SECURE (HTTPS)
Hypertext transfer protocol secure (HTTPS) is the secure version of HTTP, which
is the primary protocol used to send data between a web browser and a website.
HTTPS is encrypted in order to increase security of data transfer. This is
particularly important when users transmit sensitive data, such as by logging into
a bank account, email service, or health insurance provider.
7. HYPERTEXT TRANSFER
PROTOCOL (HTTP)
This protocol is used to access, send and receive Hypertext Markup Language (HTML)
files on the Internet.
HTTP stands for Hypertext Transfer Protocol, and it is a protocol – or a
prescribed order and syntax for presenting information – used for transferring data
over a network. Most information that is sent over the Internet, including website
content and API calls, uses the HTTP protocol.
8. SIMPLE MAIL TRANSFER PROTOCOL
(SMTP)
This protocol is used for transferring email between computers.
SMTP is a set of communication guidelines that allow software to transmit an
electronic mail over the internet is called Simple Mail Transfer Protocol. It is a
program used for sending messages to other computer users based on e-mail
addresses.
9. FILE TRANSFER PROTOCOL
(FTP)
The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a standard network protocol used for the
transfer of computer files between a client and server on a computer
network. FTP is built on a client-server model architecture using separate
control and data connections between the client and the server.
