FTP? Everything About File Transfer Protocol

It has been important to exchange data since the early days of computing. One common way of doing so
is connecting one computer to another. Right now, you’ve done that by using the HTTP protocol to access
the internet, which also lets you upload and download files. Another way is called FTP, which we’re going
to tell you about in this article. Before we go on, FTP is an old-school way of transferring files from
computer to computer. If you prefer something more contemporary, check out our guides on how to
share files online, sharing via Dropbox and sharing with Google Drive. What Is FTP?

FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. A protocol is a system of rules that networked computers use to
communicate with one another. FTP is a client-server protocol that may be used to transfer files between
computers on the internet. The client asks for the files and the server provides them.

Definition - What does Telnet (TN) mean?

Telnet (TN) is a networking protocol and software program used to access remote computers and
terminals over the Internet or a TCP/IP computer network. Telnet was conceived in 1969 and standardized
as one of the first Internet standards by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).

Techopedia explains Telnet (TN)

Designed for remote server access, management and client/server architectures, Telnet works through a
purpose-built program that provides connectivity between a remote computer/server and host computer.
Upon providing correct login and sign-in credentials, a user may access a remote system's privileged
functionality. Additionally, Telnet's commands may be executed on a supported client or server
device.Telnet sends all messages in clear text and has no specific security mechanisms. Thus, in many
applications and services, Telnet has been replaced by Secure Shell (SSH).
HTTP versus HTTPS:

HTTP: HTTP is an abbreviation of Hypertext Transfer Protocol. It provides a set of rules and standards for
governing the information transmitted on the World Wide Web. HTTP is an application layer network
protocol built on top of the TCP. It makes use of the Hypertext structured text which establishes the logical
link between the nodes holding text.HTTPS: HTTPS is an abbreviation of Hyper Text Transfer Protocol
Secure. It is a highly advanced and secured version of HTTP. It makes use of the port no. 443 for Data
Communication. HTTPS allows the secure transactions by encrypting the complete data with SSL (Secure
Socket Layer). HTTP permits to create a secure encrypted connection between the server and the web
browser. It helps in protecting the sensitive information from being stolen. Migrating from HTTP to HTTPS:
Migrating your site from HTTP to HTTPS is very beneficial, as it adds more of security to your website.
HTTPS not only protects your website from forms and also collects information and keeps your URLs,
headers and your website contents pages more confidential. It's time to move to the higher level of
security at zero cost. HostingRaja provides free migration from http to https at absolutely free of cost.

What is HTTPS, and why do you need it?

HTTP stands for hypertext transfer protocol. It’s a protocol that allows communication between different
systems. Most commonly, it is used for transferring data from a web server to a browser to view web
pages.

The problem is that HTTP (note: no "s" on the end) data is not encrypted, and it can be intercepted by
third parties to gather data being passed between the two systems.

This can be addressed by using a secure version called HTTPS, where the "S" stands for secure.
Telecommunications, also known as telecom, is the exchange of information over significant distances by
electronic means and refers to all types of voice, data and video transmission. ... A complete, single
telecommunications circuit consists of two stations, each equipped with a transmitter and a receiver.

Blog
Definition
A frequent, chronological publication of personal thoughts and Web links.Blogs, or weblogs,
started out as a mix of what was happening in a person’s life and what was happening on the
Web, a kind of hybrid diary/news site. The word “blog” is a shortened version of web logs or
weblogs. Besides being shorter and catchier, “blog” seems less likely to cause confusion, as “web
log” can also mean a server’s log files. People maintained blogs before the term was coined, but
the trend gained momentum with the rise of automated published systems, most notably Blogger
at blogger.com, which lowered the technical barrier to entry for formatting and organizing posts.
Now, self-hosted platforms such as WordPress offer new levels of functionality, with a large
ecosystem of talented designers and developers serving the varied needs of millions of users.
Despite its grassroots beginnings, blogging has also become a popular platform for business, from
companies trying to humanize their brand to solopreneurs seeking to make a full-time income
online. But with increased opportunity comes increased competition, and it takes more to stand
out now than in the early days of blogging. Still, there are so many more people online today, so
the potential rewards are higher for bloggers who break through.

add-on

An add-on is either a hardware unit that can be added to a computer to increase its capabilities
or a program utility that enhances a primary program. Less frequently, some manufacturers and
software developers use the term add-in . Examples of add-ons for a computer include card s for
sound, graphics acceleration, modem capability, and memory. Software add-ons are common for
games, word processors, and accounting programs.
The Microsoft Style Guide suggests using add-on for hardware only and add-in for software
utilities. Industry-wide, however, this guideline does not seem to be widely followed.
A similar term is plug-in , a term originated by Netscape for application programs that can be
activated within a Netscape Web browser window.
