WAN

 What Is WAN?

According to Mesh Flinders, Ian Smalley (2025) “A wide-area network (WAN) is a series of connected, telecommunication networks that span a large geographic area, typically connecting headquarters, branch offices, data centers and other critical infrastructure.” (Mesh Flinders, 2025)

I find it impressive how this type of network allows different locations, even in different cities or countries, to be connected as if they were part of a single network. Personally, I see a WAN as a technological backbone that holds the operations of large companies together, allowing them to communicate and share data in real time, regardless of distance. It's a fundamental solution for maintaining continuity and efficiency in organizations with multiple locations.

TLS

  What is TLS? Based to the Cyber Security Agence of Singapure (2025) “Transport Layer Security (TLS) is a cryptographic protocol that provides end-to-end security of data sent between applications over the Internet.” (Cyber Security Agence of Singapure , 2025) This quote perfectly highlights the importance of TLS in protecting our data online. I find it incredible how this protocol acts almost invisibly, ensuring that the information I send from an app or browser arrives securely at its destination. Personally, knowing that technology like TLS exists gives me more confidence when using online services, as it protects my data from potential attacks or unauthorized access. For me, it's an essential part of digital security in today's world.

Connectivity

What is connectivity? According to 19usb10137 (N.D) in Brainly “Connectivity- is the capability of your personal computer to share information with other computers.” (19usb10137, s.f.) In my opinion, connectivity, as mentioned in the quote, does involve a personal computer's ability to exchange information with other devices. This communication can occur through local area networks (LANs), wide area networks (WANs), the Internet, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, among others. However, connectivity today encompasses much more than just "sharing information." It also refers to the continuous and fluid interaction between systems, cloud services, remote servers, mobile devices, and IoT (Internet of Things) sensors.
