    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executable-space_protection

    PaX supplies mprotect() restrictions to prevent programs from marking memory in ways that produce memory useful for a potential exploit. This policy causes certain applications to cease to function, but it can be disabled for affected programs. PaX allows individual control over the following functions of the technology for each binary executable:

  3. Network packet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_packet

    In the seven-layer OSI model of computer networking, packet strictly refers to a protocol data unit at layer 3, the network layer. [2] A data unit at layer 2, the data link layer, is a frame. In layer 4, the transport layer, the data units are segments and datagrams.

  4. Computer network engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_network_engineering

    Computer network engineering is a technology discipline within engineering that deals with the design, implementation, and management of computer networks. These systems contain both physical components, such as routers , switches, cables, and some logical elements, such as protocols and network services .

  5. Network architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_architecture

    Network architecture is the design of a computer network.It is a framework for the specification of a network's physical components and their functional organization and configuration, its operational principles and procedures, as well as communication protocols used.

  6. Frame (networking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_(networking)

    In the OSI model of computer networking, a frame is the protocol data unit at the data link layer. Frames are the result of the final layer of encapsulation before the data is transmitted over the physical layer. [1] A frame is "the unit of transmission in a link layer protocol, and consists of a link layer header followed by a packet."
