HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) is a secure version of HTTP, which is the main protocol used for transferring data between a web server and a browser. HTTPS works by establishing an encrypted connection between the web server and the browser. This connection is established using TLS (Transport Layer Security) or SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) protocol. All data sent over the connection is encrypted using a cryptographic protocol, ensuring that no third-party can intercept or alter the data in transit. The web server and the browser also authenticate each other using digital certificates and public-key encryption. This ensures that the connection is secure and that only the intended recipient can view the data sent.
