The actual amount of data that gets sent over a connection in a given time. Less than bandwidth due to overhead.
How long it takes data to get from source to destination. Lower latency means snappier connections.
The percentage of data packets that get lost in transit. Can noticeably degrade voice and video quality.
Having multiple paths for data to travel. Helps maintain connectivity if one path fails.
An encrypted vault for storing and generating strong passwords. Way better than using the same password everywhere.
Malware that burrows deep into your system to hide itself. Notoriously hard to detect and remove.
A vulnerability that’s exploited before the software maker knows about it and can fix it.
Exploiting human psychology rather than technical vulnerabilities. Phishing is a prime example.
