confidentiality:

The process of maintaining the privacy of transactions from sources to destinations is called “Confidentiality.” Confidentiality talks about protecting the disclosing of information to unauthorized parties on the network. The information transferred from source to destination has some secret message which cannot be shared with unauthorized users.
The most common technique adopted to keep the information confidential is the process of encryption. Encryption ensures that the message is secured with a private key and the original message will be in an unreadable format. So, everyone wishes to keep the information secret from diverse malicious activities on the network. Confidentiality is considered to be one of the primary factors of secured transactions between sources to the destination. The confidential information can contain any bank details, personal details, hospital details, government details, which needs to be protected from various malicious activities on the network.

integrity:

The information transmitted between sources to the destination is maintained confidentially. The protocol which governs the confidentiality of information from source to destination is called “Integrity.”Integrity ensures that only trusted parties are communicating inside the network. Integrity also ensures that only authorized users can access or modify the information transmitted through the network. Proper security infrastructure should be defined in order to manage the transactions on the trusted parties in the network. There are great chances of losing data integrity in the network, by the influence of the other attacks like social engineering attacks and malware attacks.

Availability:

There is a need for availability of information during transmission from source to destination. The availability arises when any operations or processing needs to be performed on the information transmitted between sources to the destination. The availability talks about the availability of information when it is required to be transmitted from source to destination and for other processing operations like encryption, decryption, and so on.
let us consider an example of the availability of information on an e-commerce site. The information should be available at the right time at the right place on an e-commerce site to present the customers with the required information of various products. Suppose, if the information is not available at the right time at the right place, then there are great chances of the site getting crashed.

TCP/IP protocol

TCP (Transmission Control Protocol):- TCP (Transmission Control  Protocol ) is a standard that defines how to establish and maintain a network conversation via which  application programs  can exchange data. TCP works with the Internet Protocol ( IP ), which defines how computers send  packet s of  data  to each other. Together, TCP and IP are the basic rules defining the Internet. TCP is defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force ( IETF ) in the Request for Comment ( RFC ) standards document number 793. TCP is a connection-oriented protocol, which means a connection is established and maintained until the application programs at each end have finished exchanging messages. It determines how to break application data into packets that  networks  can deliver, sends packets to and accepts packets from the network layer, manages  flow contro l ,  and—because it is meant to provide error-free data transmi...

What is technical analysis?

 Technical Analysis (also abbreviated as TA) is a popular technique that allows you to do just that. It not only helps you develop a point of view on a particular stock or index but also helps you define the trade keeping in mind the entry, exit and risk perspective.  Like all research techniques, Technical Analysis also comes with its own attributes, some of which can be highly complex. However, technology makes it easy to understand. Technical Analysis is a research technique to identify trading opportunities in market based on the actions of market participants. The actions of market participants can be visualized by means of a stock chart. Over time, patterns are formed within these charts and each pattern conveys a certain message. The job of a technical analyst is to identify these patterns and develop a point of view. Like any research technique, technical analysis stands on a bunch of assumptions. As a practitioner of technical analysis, you need to trade the markets k...

connection oriented

connection-oriented:- connection-oriented  describes a means of transmitting data in which the devices at the end points use a preliminary  protocol  to establish an end-to-end connection before any data is sent. Connection-oriented protocol service is sometimes called a "reliable" network service, because it guarantees that data will arrive in the proper sequence. Transmission Control Protocol ( TCP ) is a connection-oriented protocol. For connection-oriented communications, each end point must be able to transmit so that it can communicate. The alternative to connection-oriented transmission is the  connection-less  approach, in which data is sent from one end point to another without prior arrangement. Connection-less protocols are usually described as  stateless  because the end points have no protocol-defined way to remember where they are in a "conversation" of message exchanges. Because they can keep track of a conversation, connection-or...
