What is HTTPS
HTTPS stands for Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure. HTTPS has a secure transfer. It was developed by Netscape. HTTPS is used to encrypt or decrypt user HTTP page or HTTP page requests that are returned by the webserver. HTTPS is first used in HTTP/1.1 and is defined in RFC 2616. In HTTPS, the standard port to transfer the information is 443.
Using the HTTPS, sensitive information that we want to transfer from one user to another user can be done securely. HTTPS protocol uses HTTP on connection encrypted by SSL (Secure Socket Layer) or TLS (Transport Layer Security). HTTPS protects transmitted data from man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks and eavesdropping. It is the default protocol for conduction financial transactions on the web.
