6.
The protection of internet-connected systems such as hardware, software and data from cyberthreats.
7.
In programming, it is a classification that specifies which type of value a variable has and what type.
8.
The process of manually reviewing the source code of a program. It involves reading through the functions within the code and manually testing them, often with multiple input values.
9.

12.
Something entered into a machine or other system, the act of entering data or other information.
13.
This approach is a process which looks to continuously improve a concept, design, or product. The practice of refining and improving a product, process, idea or initiative through multiple iterations.
14.
In robotics, it is a robotic arm-like mechanism that is designed to manipulate or move materials, tools, and parts without direct human contact.
15.
A small programmable computer that is able to run code.
16.
The phenomenon in which an object changes its position with respect to time and can be applied to physical systems.
17.
Requirements that specify criteria that can be used to judge the operation of a system, rather than specific behaviours.
18.
The degree to which an individual can determine which personal information is to be shared with whom and for what purpose.
19.
Writing in plain English line by line (step by step) what you want the computer program to do.
20.
