Detailed explanation-1: -HTTPS today uses Transport Layer Security, or TLS. TLS is a network protocol that establishes an encrypted connection to an authenticated peer over an untrusted network. Earlier, less secure versions of this protocol were called Secure Sockets Layer, or SSL).
Detailed explanation-2: -The SSL and TLS protocols provide communications security over the internet, and allow client/server applications to communicate in a way that is confidential and reliable. The protocols have two layers: a Record Protocol and a Handshake Protocol, and these are layered above a transport protocol such as TCP/IP.
Detailed explanation-3: -Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a protocol that provides secure communication over the Internet. It uses both symmetric and asymmetric cryptography. The SSL protocol provides server authentication and client authentication: Server authentication is performed when a client connects to the server.
