Explanation

HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) is a protocol that uses TLS/SSL to ensure secure transmission of data over the Internet. HTTPS is an extension of HTTP, which is the standard protocol for transferring data between web servers and browsers. HTTPS encrypts the data exchanged between the client and the server, preventing anyone from intercepting, modifying, or stealing the data. HTTPS also verifies the identity of the server using digital certificates, preventing spoofing or phishing attacks. HTTPS is widely used for web applications that handle sensitive information, such as online banking, e-commerce, or social media.
