Detailed explanation-1: -The lock symbol and related URL containing “https” simply mean that the connection between your web browser and the website server is encrypted, which is important.
Detailed explanation-2: -A secure website’s URL should begin with “https” rather than “http”. The “s” at the end of “http” stands for secure and is using an SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) connection. Your information will be encrypted before being sent to a server. Be sure to click on the “lock” icon to verify that a website is trustworthy.
Detailed explanation-3: -Whenever you see a little padlock in the address bar of your internet browser, as well as when you use apps, email and messaging, you’re relying on something called ‘transport layer security’ or TLS. It’s a protocol that keeps us safe online. 24 March 2020.
