HTTPS is the secure version of the Standard Hypertext Transfer Protocol you use while browsing the web. HTTPS connections are encrypted meaning no one is able to see the information you send over a connection. The websites you browse are checked for a legitimate security certificate, improving your online security and privacy on the web.

For companies with their own websites, HTTPS adds security for both the business and its visitors. Just as HTTPS protects users when browsing, it protects websites from potential data breaches, preventing websites from losing sensitive information such as stored customer details. More info
