Information technology
Information technology, or IT, is the use of computers, storage, networking, software, and related services to store, manage, and transmit data, a field with worldwide spending forecast to reach $6.37 trillion in 2026.
Information technology controls
Information technology controls, also known as IT controls, are internal controls that depend on processing by information systems, assessed in audits of financial reporting, operations, and compliance.
Information technology in India
Information technology in India, also called the Indian IT industry, spans software development, IT services, and business process management, generating an estimated US$315.4 billion in FY26.
Information Technology Industry Council
The Information Technology Industry Council (ITI) is a Washington, D.C.-based trade association founded in 1916 that represents technology companies on issues including AI, cybersecurity, and trade.
Information-theoretic exploration
Information-theoretic exploration is a strategy for autonomous robot exploration in which the robot chooses actions by maximizing expected information gain, typically mutual information between future sensor measurements and a probabilistic map.
Information-theoretic security
Information-theoretic security, also called perfect secrecy, is a property of cryptographic schemes whose security holds even against adversaries with unlimited computing power, formalized by Claude Shannon in 1949 and exemplified by the one-time pad.
Informix
Informix is a relational and object-relational database management system, developed from 1980 by Informix Corporation and acquired by IBM in 2001, now used for transaction processing, time series, and spatial workloads.
Infostealer
An infostealer is a type of malware that infiltrates a computer to quietly collect sensitive data, especially browser-saved passwords, cookies, and credit card details, sold on underground marketplaces.
Infosys
Infosys, also known as Infosys Limited, is an Indian IT services and consulting company founded in Bangalore in 1981 by N. R. Narayana Murthy and six colleagues.
Infraestructura Energética Nova

Infrared and thermal testing
Infrared and thermal testing, commonly called infrared thermography (IRT), is a nondestructive evaluation method that locates defects like delaminations and voids from surface temperature variations captured by an infrared camera.
Infrared blaster
An infrared blaster (IR blaster) is an infrared transmitter built into a device, usually a smartphone, that lets it control TVs and other appliances like a remote.
Infrared emitter
An infrared emitter is an optoelectronic source that converts electrical energy into infrared radiation, most commonly an IR LED emitting around 850 or 940 nm for remote controls and sensing.
Infrared homing
Infrared homing, also called heat seeking, is a passive missile guidance method in which the weapon steers toward the infrared radiation of its target, usually a hot aircraft.
Infrared upconversion
Infrared upconversion is the conversion of low-energy infrared photons into higher-energy visible or near-infrared light, achieved in devices that stack an infrared photodetector with a light-emitting diode, enabling applications like night vision and bioimaging.
Infrastructure
Infrastructure is the system of basic physical facilities, equipment, and organizations that delivers essential services such as transport, energy, water, sanitation, and communications to a society.
Infrastructure as a service
Infrastructure as a service, or IaaS, is a cloud computing model where a provider supplies processing, storage, and networking, while the customer controls the operating systems and applications.
Infrastructure as code
Infrastructure as code (IaC) is a methodology for provisioning computing infrastructure, such as networks and virtual machines, by defining it in definition files and treating it like application code, with tools like Terraform applying the changes.
Infrastructure asset management
Infrastructure asset management (IAM) is the systematic process by which organizations operate, maintain, and upgrade physical infrastructure like roads, bridges, and pipelines to deliver service at acceptable cost.
Infrastructure investment trust
An infrastructure investment trust (InvIT) is a SEBI-regulated Indian investment vehicle that owns income-generating infrastructure assets like toll roads and distributes most cash to unitholders.
Inga dams
The Inga dams are hydroelectric power stations, Inga I and Inga II, on the Congo River at Inga Falls in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Inga II hydroelectric plant
The Inga II hydroelectric plant, completed in 1982, generates 1,424 MW on the Congo River between Kinshasa and the Atlantic, and with Inga I supplies most of SNEL's electricity.
InGaAs photodiode
An InGaAs photodiode is a semiconductor photodetector made of indium gallium arsenide, converting infrared light up to about 1.7 μm into electrical current for telecom and SWIR imaging.
Ingalls Shipbuilding
Ingalls Shipbuilding is a shipyard in Pascagoula, Mississippi, founded in 1938 and now a division of Huntington Ingalls Industries that builds Navy destroyers, amphibious ships, and Coast Guard cutters.
Inge Lyse
Inge Lyse (1898–1990) was a Norwegian engineer and pioneer in concrete research who led Lehigh University's Fritz Engineering Laboratory and held the reinforced concrete chair in Trondheim.
Ingeborg Hochmair
Ingeborg Hochmair is an Austrian electrical engineer who co-invented the first microelectronic multichannel cochlear implant, implanted in Vienna in 1977, and co-founded the hearing implant company MED-EL.
