what does this mean?

I'm actually in a programming class, and am getting confused over this one! Can anyone explain it without going off topic?? Been following this instructor for 2 days now and he is all over the place...

This file is not a core WordPress file; the WordFence Security plugin adds it.

WordFence adds this directory/file to store data without using the database to process security checks before the website connects or accesses the database.

I hope this helps.
