TLSSSLkrüpteerimise

TLSSSLkrüpteerimise refers to the encryption protocols used to secure communication over the internet. TLS, Transport Layer Security, and its predecessor SSL, Secure Sockets Layer, are cryptographic protocols designed to provide communications security over a computer network. They are widely used for web browsing, email, instant messaging, and other internet applications. The primary function of TLSSSLkrüpteerimise is to ensure that data exchanged between two parties remains private and integral, preventing eavesdropping and tampering.

The process typically involves a handshake where the client and server establish a secure connection. During this handshake, they agree on the encryption algorithms to be used and exchange cryptographic keys. Once the handshake is complete, all subsequent data transmitted between them is encrypted, rendering it unreadable to anyone who might intercept it. This encryption uses a combination of symmetric and asymmetric cryptography. Asymmetric cryptography is used during the handshake to authenticate the server and establish a shared secret key, while symmetric cryptography is used for the actual data encryption due to its speed and efficiency.

The use of TLSSSLkrüpteerimise is crucial for protecting sensitive information such as login credentials, credit card numbers, and personal data. Websites that employ these protocols often display a padlock icon in the browser's address bar, indicating a secure connection. While SSL is largely considered obsolete and has been replaced by TLS, the term "SSL" is still commonly used in everyday language to refer to this type of security. Different versions of TLS exist, with newer versions offering enhanced security features and improved performance.
