Root S-off and S-On

Sorry for the noob question, but what is the S-Off and S-On that everyone refers to?
S_OFF is another way of saying "security off"...which means that nand is unlocked and so is the bootloader.

This basically means that you can mod the system while booted

S_ON means security on...nand is locked and so is bootloader
