What is HTTPS?

12/08/2022 | by Patrick Fischer, M.Sc., Founder & Data Scientist: FDS
HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) is a protocol based on the widely used HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol). It provides secure communication between a web server and a web browser. It uses a combination of the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol and the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol to encrypt data that is exchanged between a server and a browser. This encryption provides an extra layer of security for the data being transferred between the server and the browser. HTTPS is especially important when sensitive data is to be transferred, such as in online banking.

What is HTTP?

12/08/2022 | by Patrick Fischer, M.Sc., Founder & Data Scientist: FDS
HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol) is a communication protocol used to transfer data on the World Wide Web (WWW). It is mainly used to retrieve web pages and other resources from the Internet, but it can also be used to send information to servers, e.g. when filling out web forms. HTTP is a request-response protocol, where the client (e.g. a web browser) sends a request to a server to retrieve a specific resource, and the server responds with a reply containing the requested resource.
