Boolean Operators
The Boolean operator where every part of a statement must be true for the entire statement to be true.
What is AND?
Converting data so it's illegible to hackers.
What is encryption?
The structure that runs one line after another in order
What is Sequence?
Data compression that loses data during compression
What is Lossy?
A specific set of rules.
What is protocol?
The Boolean operator where any part of a statement can be true for the entire statement to be true.
What is OR?
A shift cipher where each letter is shifted the same amount.
What is a Caesar Cipher?
The logic structure in programming that uses IF statements to select certain values
What is Selection?
Additional data about the main data.
What is Metadata?
Units of data formatted using TCP/IP.
What are packets?
The Boolean operator with only one variable that has the output 1 when the input is 0 and vice versa.
What is NOT?

What is pixelation?
A server that contains many IP addresses and their matching domain names.
What is a Name Server?

What is a router?
When inputs 0 and 1 result in an output of 0.
What is an AND logic gate?
Where hackers flood a site with fake request making all the site's resources unavailable for legitimate users.
What is a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack?
Reducing complexity by hiding details that aren't relevant to the task at hand (you don't have to know what's under the hood to drive a car).
What is abstraction?
