HTTPS

If you are online shopping or pay your bills via online banking, you want to make sure your address and bank account data are safe. In order to ensure this, you should use a HTTPS connection. It guarantees a safe communication between server and browser. The acronym HTTPS stands for “HyperText Transfer Protocol Secure”. An additional safety protocol and encryption distinguishes it from conventional connections. This way it provides authentication of the web server, to ensure its legitimacy. In addition to conventional connections, the data exchange cannot be intercepted during the transmission. As long as the URL (short for: Uniform Resource Locator) in your browser begins with “https”, a safe connection between the server and the browser is established.
