HTTP 🆚 HTTPS
🌐 Browser surfers may have noticed that some sites start with https:// and some start with http://.
🛡 The biggest difference between HTTP and HTTPS is security. HTTPS sites will be secured, while sites starting with HTTP will be unprotected.
📄 HTTPS sites will have an SSL certificate, which means https:// sites are secure.
HTTP sites will not have such a certificate.
🔓 If you enter your information on HTTP sites, for example "password: computer_knowledge", hackers can easily see it, which means that your information is not encrypted.
🔒 On HTTPS sites, your information is encrypted and instead of your information, cyber attackers will see something like this: T8UV81pQfyhDkhebbz7+oiwldr1j2gHBB3L3RFTRsQCpaSnSBZ78Vme
🤓 Conclusion: Never enter your information on sites that start with http://!
