HTTPS is a protocol for secure communication over a computer network which is widely used on the Internet. HTTPS consist of communication over Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) within a connection encrypted by Transport Layer Security. HTTPS is used to provide authentication of a website as well as bidirectional encryption of the communications between client and server.
