    HTTPS stands for Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure, and instead of acting as its own application layer protocol, it uses separate protocols called SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and TLS (Transport Layer Security).
    Using HTTPS, the computers agree on a "code" between them, and then they scramble the messages using that "code" so that no one in between can read them. This keeps your information safe from hackers.

    https is more secure, as content is encrypted when it is sent over it. This makes middle man in the middle attacks more difficult to execute. That is why credit card encryption forms require the page to be on https to ensure security. The web is pushing to make everything https for security reasons, which is why browsers are now starting to display warnings on pages without https, and seo is starting to effect sites without https negatively.

    SSL stands Secure sockets layer,this certificate also called as Digital certificate.It creates secure link between website and visitor's Browser By guaranteeing that all information passed between the two stays private and secure, SSL encryption prevents hackers from taking private data, for example, credit card numbers, names and addresses.

    For example, A website visitor is using Starbuck network and submit a form on the website.
    without https, the information which user has submitted can be access by the same internet user who is setting around.

    SSL Certificates are small data files that digitally bind a cryptographic key to an organization's details. When installed on a web server, it activates the padlock and the https protocol and allows secure connections from a web server to a browser. ... A domain name, server name or hostname.
