SSL is the standard protocol for securing web traffic, encrypting communication between clients and cloud-hosted web servers.
Common mistakes.
- A. HTTP transmits all data in plaintext with no encryption, making it inherently insecure for any website handling user data.
- B. IPSec operates at the network layer and is used to secure VPN tunnels and network-to-network communications, not browser-to-server web traffic.
- D. SSH provides encrypted remote command-line access to servers for administrative purposes, not secure delivery of web content to end users.
