But do you know what these words really mean and why some websites use https and others use http.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HTTP means Hypertext Transfer Protocol. It is the main rule that helps data move on the internet. It helps your browser talk to the website server. This way your browser can ask for and get information like web pages pictures and videos.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HTTPS means Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure. It works like HTTP but with extra security. HTTPS keeps the data safe by changing it into secret codes when your browser talks to the website server. This makes sure that important information like your passwords payment details and personal data cannot be stolen by hackers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this blog we will explain in a simple way the differences between HTTP and HTTPS, how they work, their good points, their bad points and more.

Many hackers and online threats are trying to steal data so HTTPS helps keep you safe. Knowing this helps you make smart choices when using the internet.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>What is HTTP and HTTPS<\/h2>\n<h3><b>HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol)<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HTTP stands for HyperText Transfer Protocol. HTTP is the rule that helps your browser talk to websites and get data from them<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> When you open a website like<\/span> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.example.com\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">www.example.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> your browser asks the web server for the site. The server sends back the website data like text pictures and videos. Then the website shows on your screen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Example<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you type<\/span> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.example.com\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">http:\/\/example.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> your computer connects to the server with HTTP. The browser asks for the page and the server sends it as normal text.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Important About HTTP Security<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HTTP does not make your data secret. This means anything you send like passwords personal details or payment info is sent as normal text.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If a hacker watches the connection for example on public Wi-Fi they can see your information and steal it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>HTTPS (HyperText Transfer Protocol Secure)<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HTTPS stands for HyperText Transfer Protocol Secure. HTTPS is the safe version of HTTP. It helps your browser talk to websites but keeps the data secret<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> When a website uses HTTPS all data between your browser and the server is changed into secret codes using SSL or TLS. Even if a hacker tries to see it they cannot read or change it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Example<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you type<\/span> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.example.com\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/example.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> the connection becomes safe. You will see a small padlock next to the address. This shows your data is safe.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Why HTTPS is Important<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Almost all websites use HTTPS today. It is important when websites use sensitive info like.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Online banking<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shopping websites for payment<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Login pages with username and password<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Without HTTPS hackers can see your data. HTTPS keeps your info safe and private.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>How HTTP Works<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HTTP is the rule that helps browsers and servers talk to each other. Here is a simple way to understand it.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><b> Browser Sends Request<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> When you type a website and press Enter the browser sends a request to the server<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The request tells the server which page you want the method like GET to get the page the browser type and some other info.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b> Server Processes Request<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> When the server gets your HTTP request it looks for the web page or files you asked for like images or stylesheets in its storage.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The server reads the request does any work it needs to do and gets the correct web page or files ready as a response.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b> Server Sends Response<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> After the server finds the web page or files it creates an HTTP response. This response has a status code like 200 OK which means everything is fine some information about the response and the web page data itself.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The data usually has the HTML code for the web page the CSS files to make the design nice images and JavaScript files for extra actions.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b> Browser Displays Content<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Your browser gets the HTTP response and reads the content. It understands the HTML code adds the design from CSS shows the images and runs JavaScript to make things interactive.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Finally you see the full web page on your screen.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Important Security Note<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This whole process happens in plain text when using HTTP. This means the data sent between your browser and the web server is not secret.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So if a hacker is watching the network for example on public Wi-Fi they can easily see what you send like your passwords or personal data.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HTTP is faster because it does not hide the data but it is not safe especially on networks that are not secure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>How Does HTTPS Protocol Work<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HTTPS means HyperText Transfer Protocol Secure. It works almost the same as HTTP but has one extra important thing \u2013 it makes the data secret by using special codes called SSL or TLS. This keeps the data between your browser and the website safe and private so no one can steal it.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><b> Client Sends Request<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> When you type a website address starting with https:\/\/ in your browser and press Enter the browser works like a client and connects with the web server. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unlike HTTP HTTPS does not send a plain text request first it gets ready to make a safe connection<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b> TLS SSL Handshake<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> After the first connection the web server sends its SSL or TLS certificate to the browser.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This certificate has information to prove the website is real. It includes the domain name the signature of a trusted company called Certificate Authority and a public key. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The browser checks if the certificate is real and from a trusted authority. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This makes sure the browser is talking to the real website and not a fake one.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b> Session Key Exchange<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> After the browser checks the certificate the browser and the server agree on a session key.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This session key is a special temporary key that is used to keep all the data secret during this visit.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> At first they use one method called asymmetric cryptography to share the session key but after that they use symmetric cryptography because it works faster for sending data.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b> Encrypted Data Transfer<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Now that they have the session key all the requests and responses are changed into secret codes.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This means the data looks like random characters and only the browser and server can understand it<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Even if a hacker tries to watch the data they will see useless characters and cannot read or change anything.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b> Browser Displays Content<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Finally the browser changes the secret coded data back to normal using the session key and shows the web page correctly on your screen.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><b>Why HTTPS Is Crucial<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because of encryption HTTPS keeps your data safe and private. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It stops hackers from stealing important information like passwords credit card numbers and personal data. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It also stops attackers from changing data or pretending to be the website you want to visit.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Why Choose HTTPS Over HTTP<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HTTPS means HyperText Transfer Protocol Secure.

cryptography to create a session key<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This session key is symmetric which means the same key is used to lock and unlock the data<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Even if someone tries to listen to the handshake they cannot figure out the session key because the math is very hard to solve<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Encryption<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Once the session key is ready all HTTP requests and responses are locked using strong codes like AES.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This keeps the data safe and private while it travels over the internet:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Decryption<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> When the data reaches the browser or the server it is unlocked using the same session key. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This way both sides can read the data safely and if a hacker tries to catch it the data looks like nonsense<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Key Takeaway<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This strong encryption keeps important information like passwords credit card numbers and personal data safe from hackers while it is being sent<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What Does a Typical HTTP Request Look Like<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here is a simple example of a normal HTTP GET request from the browser to the server<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">GET \/home HTTP\/1.1<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Host<\/span> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.example.com\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">www.example.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> User-Agent Mozilla\/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0 Win64 x64)<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Accept text\/html<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Explanation<\/b><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>GET<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This means the browser is asking the server to send data<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Host<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Shows which website the browser wants to access for example<\/span> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.example.com\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">www.example.com<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>User-Agent<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Tells the server which browser and operating system is being used for example Mozilla Firefox on Windows 10<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Accept<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Shows what kind of data the browser can read like HTML JSON images<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Note<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> In HTTPS this request is fully locked before it is sent over the internet So no one can read it while it travels.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How HTTPS Helps Authenticate Web Servers<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Authentication is very important in HTTPS It makes sure you are talking to the real website and not a fake one that wants to steal your information. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you open a secure HTTPS website the server sends an SSL certificate that has:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The domain name it belongs to<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The issuer who is a trusted certificate authority<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The expiration date of the certificate<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The public key used for locking and unlocking data<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Certificate Verification Process<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The browser checks the SSL certificate to make sure it is safe<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is the certificate still valid and not expired<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is it from a trusted certificate authority like Lets Encrypt or DigiCert<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Does the certificate match the website you are visiting<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If all checks pass the browser shows a padlock icon in the address bar which means the connection is safe. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If any check fails the browser shows a warning that the website may not be safe.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Is HTTPS Setup More Expensive Than HTTP<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the past setting up HTTPS used to cost a lot because buying SSL certificates from trusted authorities was expensive. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today this has changed a lot. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lets Encrypt gives free SSL certificates to everyone.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Most web hosting providers now give built-in HTTPS setup without any extra cost.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Even though HTTPS adds a small delay because of encryption the effect is very small because modern computers and networks are fast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Key Conclusion<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HTTPS is now cheap easy to use and very important for keeping websites safe.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Conclusion<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The main difference between HTTP and HTTPS is security. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HTTP is simple and fast but it does not lock the data leaving it open to theft and tampering. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HTTPS locks the data using SSL and TLS encryption and makes sure the web server is real and builds trust with users.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For any website that handles logins payments or personal information using HTTPS is no longer optional it is very important. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HTTPS also improves SEO ranking keeps data safe and makes users feel confident.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Using HTTPS is the best choice for a safe trusted and strong website. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HTTPS helps protect your users and your business.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today in the digital world when we open a website in our browser we see addresses that start with http or https.
