Basically, any type of data. Data stored in computers is stored as 1's and 0's; such data ("digital data") can be encoded in such a way that it represent a wide variety of types of data, such as documents, images, sounds, videos, computer programs, and probably several other types of information. Any such data can be transmitted over a network. However, the network may impose a limit on how fast such data can be transmitted - or more accurately, with what bandwidth (measured in bits per second or some multiple, for example, Mbps). This may make it impractical, for example, to transmit high-quality movies over certain slower networks.

How is data transmitted securely over a network?

Data is transmitted securely over a network through encryption, which scrambles the data into a code that can only be read by authorized parties with the correct decryption key. This ensures that even if the data is intercepted, it cannot be understood by unauthorized users. Other security measures, such as firewalls and secure protocols, also help protect data during transmission.
