Abstract

You use the secure web every day without even thinking about it. With privacy laws, trillions of dollars, euros, and yen, and corporate communications have grown exponentially over the past 20 years. It was important to find a way for information on the Internet to be transmitted securely. Browsers do this through HTTPS (HyperText Transfer Protocol Secure). Whenever you see a small lock beside the website’s name in your browser, you’re accessing it through HTTPS.
