HTTPS/SSL Insights

What is HTTPS/SSL?

HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) is an encrypted version of HTTP, the protocol over which data is sent between your browser and the websites you connect to. The 'S' at the end of HTTPS stands for 'Secure'. It uses SSL/TLS to encrypt communications, which protects against eavesdropping, data tampering, and man-in-the-middle attacks, ensuring the integrity and confidentiality of data exchanged between a user's computer and the server. It is commonly used for securing online transactions, login credentials, and any other sensitive information transmitted over the internet.
