    A network protocol is a standardized set of rules governing how data is formatted, transmitted, received, and interpreted across devices on a network. Think of it as the “language” that ensures different computers can understand each other—even with different hardware or software—and guarantees interoperability

    Network Protocol?

    A network protocol is a predefined set of rules and conventions that define how devices communicate over a network. These include:

    • Syntax: Data formats and signal levels.

    • Semantics: Meaning of each piece of data.

    • Timing: When data is sent and how long to wait for responses.

    1. Authentication & Encryption

    • Authentication verifies identities using passwords, tokens, or certificates to ensure only authorized users or devices gain access rusheelraj.pythonanywhere.com+13vocal.media+13trendmicro.com+13.

    • Encryption scrambles data to keep it confidential and ensure integrity:

      • Symmetric (e.g., AES): same key for encryption & decryption.

      • Asymmetric (e.g., RSA): uses public/private key pairs
