- 3. Is small blocks of data created by a web server while a user is browsing a website and placed on the user's computer or other device by the user's web browser.
- 4. Is a collection of discrete values that convey information, describing the quantity, quality, fact, statistics, other basic units of meaning, or simply sequences of symbols that may be further interpreted.
- 5. Is a commonly used method of lossy compression for digital images, particularly for those images produced by digital photography.
- 7. Is a hardware or software component that stores data so that future requests for that data can be served faster.
- 10. Is a proprietary audio/video interface for transmitting uncompressed video data and compressed or uncompressed digital audio data from an HDMI-compliant source device, such as a display controller, to a compatible computer monitor, video projector, digital television, or digital audio device.
- 11. Is a mobile operating system based on a modified version of the Linux kernel and other open-source software.
- 13. An American multinational technology company headquartered in Cupertino, California. It is the world's largest technology company by revenue.
- 14. Is a digital multimedia container format most commonly used to store video and audio, but it can also be used to store other data such as subtitles and still images.
- 16. Is the most important processor in a given computer. Its electronic circuitry executes instructions of a computer program, such as arithmetic, logic, controlling, and input/output (I/O) operations.

Down
- 1. Is any software intentionally designed to cause disruption to a computer, server, client, or computer network, leak private information, gain unauthorized access to information or systems, deprive access to information, or which unknowingly interferes with the user's computer security and privacy.
- 2. Is a method of representing data in a visual, machine-readable form. Initially, its represented data by varying the widths, spacings and sizes of parallel lines
- 3. Is the protection of computer systems and networks from attack by malicious actors that may result in unauthorized information disclosure, theft of, or damage to hardware, software, or data, as well as from the disruption or misdirection of the services they provide.
- 6. Is a method of transmitting and receiving messages using electronic devices. It was conceived in the late–20th century as the digital version of, or counterpart to, mail
- 8. Is a number expressed in the base-2 numeral system
- 9. Is a type of computer program that, when executed, replicates itself by modifying other computer programs and inserting its own code into those programs.
- 12. Is the hardware in a computing device where the operating system (OS), application programs and data in current use are kept so they can be quickly reached by the device's processor.
- 15. Is a file format developed by Adobe in 1992 to present documents, including text formatting and images, in a manner independent of application software, hardware, and operating systems.
- 18. Is a coding format for digital audio developed largely by the Fraunhofer Society in Germany under the lead of Karlheinz Brandenburg.
