Transmission Control Protocol

Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is a key technology that manages how data is sent between computers over the internet. It breaks down information into smaller packets, sends them reliably, and ensures they arrive correctly and in order. TCP also checks for errors and requests retransmission if needed, providing a secure and accurate delivery. Think of it as a guided courier service, ensuring your digital messages reach their destination intact and in the right sequence, making internet communication smooth and dependable.
