TLSHTTPSkrüpteerimist

TLSHTTPSkrüpteerimist refers to the process of encrypting communication between a web browser and a web server using the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol, often in conjunction with the Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS). This encryption ensures that the data exchanged between the user's device and the website remains confidential and protected from unauthorized access. When a user connects to a website that uses HTTPS, their browser and the server establish a secure connection. This involves a handshake process where the server presents its digital certificate to the browser, verifying its identity. Once verified, a unique encryption key is generated for that specific session. All subsequent data transferred, such as login credentials, personal information, or browsing activity, is then scrambled using this key. This makes it extremely difficult for anyone intercepting the traffic to read or understand the content. HTTPS is indicated by a padlock icon in the browser's address bar and the URL starting with "https://". It is a fundamental security measure for protecting sensitive information online and is essential for e-commerce, online banking, and any website handling personal user data.
