HTTPSHyper text transfer protocol secure
SSL stands for Secure Sockets Layer. SSL protocol connects your computer to secure servers on the internet. SSL protocol is used on websites that require secure connections such as those used for banking.
The HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP). For secure conections, the HTTP protocol operates on top of the Secure Sockect Layer (SSL) / Transport Layer Security protocols. This is HTTP Secure (HTTPS).
Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) is a widely used communications protocol for secure communication over a computer network, with especially wide deployment on the Internet. Technically, it is not a protocol in itself; rather, it is the result of simply layering the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) on top of the SSL/TLS protocol, thus adding the security capabilities of SSL/TLS to standard HTTP communications. The Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) is the most widely deployed security protocol used today. It is essentially a protocol that provides a secure channel between two machines operating over the Internet or an internal network. In today's Internet focused world, the SSL protocol is typically used when a web browser needs to securely connect to a web server over the inherently insecure Internet.
Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure [HTTPS]
Like HTTP over SSL - HTTPS protocol, FTP has designed to support SSL in FTP7 - FTPS protocol. Also Secure child element is included to enhance security configuration in FTP7.
Known by its acronym SSL, a Secure Socket Layer protocol is used for online security purposes. More specifically, SSL protocol helps to ensure safe and stable transmission of information on the web.
The Secure Socket Layer (SSL) is a security protocol deployed on networks. The network can be an internal network or the internet over which two computers are communicating.
SSL (Secure Socket Layer,) is a protocol. Most Cisco VPNs will use SSL as their security protocol, so there is no difference between Cisco VPN and SSL VPN.
You cannot "fix" SSL. SSL is a security protocol (Secure Sockets Layer) it provides encryption from people trying to steal your data. it is commonly used on internet sites such as banks or secure company sites.
HTTPS ( Hypertext Transfer Protocol over SSL/TLS)
Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) is a combination of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol and a network security protocol. HTTP operates at the highest layer of the TCP/IP Internet reference model, the Application layer; but the security protocol operates at lower sublayer, encrypting an HTTP message prior to transmission and decrypting a message upon arrival. HTTPS has also been known as "Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer", but now HTTPS may be secured by the Transport Layer Security (TLS) instead of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol. To invoke HTTPS, one replaces "http://" with "https://" in the URI, or Web address. HTTPS connections are often used for payment transactions on the Web and for sensitive transactions in corporate information systems.
