What is Internet?

According to Encyclopedia Britannica:

it is a system architecture that has revolutionized communications

and methods of commerce by allowing various computer networks around the

world to interconnect. Sometimes referred to as a “network of networks”.

According to Oxford dictionaries:

It is an international computer network connecting other

networks and computers from companies, universities, etc.

Internet, computer-based global information system. The Internet is composed of many interconnected computer networks. Each network may link tens, hundreds, or even thousands of computers, enabling them to share information with one another and to share computational resources such as powerful supercomputers and databases of information.

The Internet has made it possible for people all over the world to communicate with one another effectively and inexpensively. Unlike traditional broadcasting media, such as radio and television, the Internet does not have a centralized distribution system.

Instead, an individual who has Internet access can communicate directly with anyone else on the Internet, make information available to others, find information provided by others, or sell products with a minimum overhead cost.

On internet we can find many website that can offer the knowledge we need. Websites can be personal or of an organization so mainly we should consult to a organizational website so that we may not be misleaded.

Internet provides us further more ways then studying only on websites, we can also studying offline by the help of internet while we are surfing through the internet we can also download many PDF extension books that can be read when there is no access to internet. So our online studying tactic becomes more productive.

Internet also offers us with video lectures that we can use to understand things more better. We can also have offline data from the websites stored on our pen drives and can use that data wherever we need to use it.

Internet is thought to be a leisure time thing to work on. Yes it is also a

leisure time thing but this is not the case all the time, many people in our

society use it as a source of entertainment so that’s why some people become

against it but it can be used very differently and can help us out. So we need

to use it the best way.

Anything Good or Bad depends upon the usage of it.

Internet is also thought to be very dangerous to use because we can loss our

very essential data or a very secure data can be stolen from our personal

computers but we need to work on some measures that will help us while

working online and we can be worry less of our data.

Hackers A person who secretly finds a way of looking at and/or changing information on

somebody else’s computer system without permission

Viruses/Worms Viruses and worms are the programs designed to invade your computer and

damage your data or copy/delete your data without your permission

Trojans These are the type of viruses that pretend to be helpful for some purpose but

instead Trojans destroy your data and steal the important information from your personal computer and damage your computer.

Spam Unwanted e-mail, instant messages,

and other online communication

Spyware These kind of software are designed to track your online activities or they can

display endless ads on your screen.

Identity Theft A crime where your cash/credit and your personal information is accessed by

hackers.

Phishing These are the tricks in which an E-mail is sent to you and let you to fake websites

and there they reveal your personal information

Hoaxes E-mail sent by online criminals to trick you into giving them money

Safe and Secure

Security: We must secure our computers

with technology in the same way that

we secure the doors to our homes.

Safety: We must act in ways that help

protect us against the risks that come

with Internet use.

We must act smartly and we would get the genuine data of our use out of internet. We should fully protect our computers from damaging things as

discussed in previous slides.

By worrying less about the dangers of internet and using the internet at its

best, we can provide valuable information to others and also can get easy

and safe knowledge.

Studying online is a way of working smart. Getting knowledge from the

internet can save our priceless time and money.

But while surfing on the internet and finding the required

information that we need, we should take care of the amount of time

that we put in and we should think of our health as well. We should be

aware about the misleading information available on the internet and

should be out of reach of that.
