cookie
A cookie is a web browser feature which stores or retrieves information, such as
a user's preferences, to persistent storage. In Netscape and Internet Explorer,
cookies are implemented by saving a small text file on your local hard drive. The
file can be loaded the next time you run a Java applet or visit a website. In this
way information unique to you as a user can be saved between sessions. The
maximum size of a cookie is approximately 4KB.

IPSec-protected traffic should be sent, and what IPSec transform sets should be
applied to this traffic.
D

The result of data encryption that prevents the disclosure of information to

The presumed accuracy of transmitted data — signifying the sender’s
authenticity and the absence of data tampering.
data origin

One function of a non-repudiation service.
decryption
Reverse application of an encryption algorithm to encrypted data, thereby
restoring that data to its original, unencrypted state.
