the information they enter into a computer.
Signal to Noise
Ratio

voice energy was detected after a connection was established.
Slave
Any device that is controlled by another device called the master.
SPAM
Unwanted e-mail, usually in the form of advertisements.
Speech
Digitalization
Changing spoken sound into digital data that can be processed and saved by a

hackers to hide their location and identity.
SRAM
Static Random Access Memory. A memory device used to store both program
and data.
S-register
