TCP/IP is the standard set of protocols. Note that these are actually 2 protocols working together.

TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is responsible for ensuring the reliable transmission of data across Internet-connected networks, while IP (Internet Protocol) defines how to address and route each data packet to make sure it reaches the right destination.
