| Cracking | Internet Of Things |
| Sensors | Smart Home |
| Security | NAT |
| Private IP | Public IP |
| A network of physical devices, vehicles, appliances, and other objects embedded with sensors, software, and network connectivity that enables them to collect and exchange data. | The process of breaking the encryption of a network to gain unauthorized access. |
| A residence that has connected devices and systems which can be remotely controlled and automated to enhance comfort, convenience, and energy efficiency. | Devices that detect physical or environmental input such as temperature, pressure, motion, or light, and convert it into an electrical signal. |
| A process where a router or firewall rewrites the source IP address of a packet to a different IP address. | The measures taken to protect connected devices, networks, and data from unauthorized access, data breaches, or other cyber threats. |
| A public IP address is an IP address that is used to identify a device on the public internet. | A private IP address is an IP address that is used within a private network and is not directly accessible from the internet. |

| IP lease refers to the period of time for which an IP address is assigned to a device using DHCP. | A gateway is a network node that acts as an access point to another network, often involving translation between different network protocols. |
| A network component that provides IP addresses and other network configuration information to devices requesting them. | Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a network management protocol used to automatically assign IP addresses and other network configuration parameters to devices on a network. |
| A set of rules and procedures for verifying the identity of a user or system. | The assurance that data has not been altered or tampered with. |
