Computer Network and Internet

Computer networks connect multiple computers to share resources and information. A


network can be local (LAN), covering a small area like an office, or wide (WAN), spanning
large geographical regions. The Internet is a global WAN connecting millions of devices
worldwide.

Networks use protocols like TCP/IP to communicate. Devices in a network include routers,
switches, and network cables. Wireless networking (Wi-Fi) enables connections without
physical cables.

The Internet provides access to services like email, websites, cloud storage, social media, and
e-commerce. It revolutionized communication, education, and business. Tools like web
browsers and search engines make navigating the Internet easy.

Cybersecurity is essential in networks to protect against unauthorized access, malware, and


data breaches. Firewalls, antivirus software, and secure passwords are common protection
methods.

Networking has made information more accessible and has connected the world, enabling
remote work, online education, and global collaboration.
