The technical name for the actual room, the cells and the bars and the hard cot and the giant hatch is "the ship's brig", while the citations regarding whatever infringement of military rule or protocol that was broken to get us into there read "confined to brig for a period of" under the "Disciplinary Action" header. That's followed, of course, by some period of time during which the unfortunate confinee is supposed to reflect upon what they've done and how they might avoid incarceration in the future.
Casually, we just call it being "in hack". Most of the time, it's more of a nuisance than a real punishment, but that's because most of the time, a soldier isn't going to see the inside of the brig for anything more serious than a D&D (that would be a citation for being publicly drunk and disorderly, something more than a few of my pilots know something about). When the crime is more serious, so is the time.
Mine, well... mine was a doozy.
