Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) is a measure used in cybersecurity to indicate the ratio of useful signal to unwanted noise in a communication channel, with higher SNR values indicating better signal quality.
SNR Definition: Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) is a measure used in cybersecurity to indicate the ratio of useful signal to unwanted noise in a communication channel, with higher SNR values indicating better signal quality.
SNR, or Signal-to-Noise Ratio, is a measure used in cybersecurity to assess the ratio of the desired signal (useful data) to the background noise (unwanted data) in a communication channel. It is a critical metric in evaluating the quality of communication systems as it indicates how effectively the information can be transmitted and received without interference from irrelevant or malicious sources. A higher SNR value implies better signal quality, which is essential for secure and reliable data transmission and reception in networks and systems.
