    HTTP is a secure Protocol.

    Explanation
    HTTP is not a secure protocol. It stands for Hypertext Transfer Protocol and is used for transmitting data over the internet. However, it does not provide any encryption or security measures to protect the data being transmitted. To ensure secure communication, HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) is used, which adds an extra layer of security by encrypting the data using SSL/TLS protocols. Therefore, the statement "HTTP is a secure protocol" is false.

    What type of system is UDP?

    • Delivery System

    • Best Effort Delivery System

    • Hold System

    • Wait System

    Correct Answer
    A. Best Effort Delivery System
    Explanation
    UDP stands for User Datagram Protocol, which is a transport layer protocol in computer networking. It is a connectionless and unreliable protocol, meaning it does not guarantee delivery of data packets or ensure their order. Instead, UDP provides a best effort delivery system where it simply sends the data packets without any error checking or acknowledgment. This makes UDP suitable for applications that prioritize speed and efficiency over reliability, such as streaming media, online gaming, and DNS. Therefore, the correct answer is "Best Effort Delivery System".

    What is the transport protocol that manages the individual conversations between web servers and web clients?

    • FTP

    • UDP

    • TCP

    • HTTP

    Correct Answer
    A. FTP
    Explanation
    FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is not the correct answer for this question. FTP is a protocol used for transferring files between a client and a server, but it does not manage individual conversations between web servers and web clients. UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is also not the correct answer as it is a connectionless protocol that does not manage individual conversations. TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is a reliable transport protocol that manages individual conversations between web servers and web clients, ensuring the delivery and ordering of packets. HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) is a higher-level protocol that runs over TCP and is responsible for the communication between web servers and web clients.
