HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) is an encrypted version of HTTP that provides security 🔒, authentication 🤴, and data integrity ✅ for web communications. Below are key features and use cases:

🔑 Core Features

  • Transport Layer Security (TLS): Encrypts data between client and server
  • SSL/TLS Certificates: Verifies server identity through digital signatures
  • Secure Cookies: Protects user session data with encryption
  • End-to-End Security: Prevents man-in-the-middle attacks 🛑

🧩 Typical Use Cases

  • Online Banking 💳
  • E-commerce Platforms 🛍️
  • User Authentication 👤
  • Private Data Transmission 📁
