Key Terms
network infrastructuretechnical
Network infrastructure is the collection of physical hardware and software—such as cables, routers, servers, data centers and cloud connections—that moves, stores and manages digital information. Investors care because it is the “roads and bridges” of a business’s digital operations: stronger, faster, and more secure infrastructure supports reliable service, growth, lower operating costs and regulatory compliance, while weaknesses raise outage, security and expansion risks.
cybersecuritytechnical
Cybersecurity involves protecting computers, networks, and digital information from theft, damage, or unauthorized access. It is essential for safeguarding sensitive data and maintaining trust in digital systems, which matters to investors because strong cybersecurity reduces the risk of costly breaches and disruptions that can impact a company’s performance and reputation. Think of it as locking and safeguarding valuable information much like securing a safe to prevent theft.
enterprise platformstechnical
Enterprise platforms are large software systems that act like a company’s central nervous system, connecting different teams and functions (sales, finance, operations, customer service) so data and workflows work together. Investors care because these platforms often generate steady, repeatable revenue, make it hard for customers to switch away, and can scale with a business—factors that influence growth potential, profit margins, and long-term value.
