Umm.. yes and No
A byte can be a relative term, the standards of modern computers use 8bits/byte so storage space can be easily comparible from one device to the next. Yet at the CPU level a byte is better defined as the bitlength ur ALU can handle, so this CPU can be described as a 24bit-Byte computer (not proper grammar but u get the point)
that is why the security question says "STANDARD Byte" and not just "A byte"
