Answer:

  1. In cryptography, ciphertext or cyphertext is the result of encryption performed on plaintext using an algorithm, called a cipher
  2. Cryptography is associated with the process of converting ordinary plain text into unintelligible text and vice-versa. It is a method of storing and transmitting data in a particular form so that only those for whom it is intended can read and process it.
  3. Adware, or advertising-supported software, is software that generates revenue for its developer by automatically generating online advertisements in the user interface of the software or on a screen presented to the user during the installation process. 
  4. Internet fraud is a type of cybercrime fraud or deception which makes use of the Internet and could involve hiding of information or providing incorrect information for the purpose of tricking victims out of money, property, and inheritance. ... Online fraud appears in many forms. It ranges from email spam to online scams.
  5. While hacking is the process of bypassing computer safeguards in order to gain access to them – which can either be good or bad – cracking specifically refers to the same practice, but with criminal intent. The general opinion is that hackers build, while crackers break.
