In this 7-minute video, we dive into the world of SSL and TLS to demystify these important security protocols. Whether you're a website owner, developer, or just curious about online security, this video will tell you everything!
SSL and TLS: What are they?
We'll start by explaining what SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and TLS (Transport Layer Security) are. These protocols ensure secure communication between a user's web browser and a website's server. They encrypt data transmitted over the Internet, ensuring that sensitive information such as passwords, credit card details and personal information remain safe from prying eyes.
We also explore when a website owner should consider implementing SSL/TLS. Basically, if your website collects sensitive data or requires a user login feature, using SSL/TLS is highly recommended. By enabling these protocols, you establish a secure connection, build trust with your visitors, and protect their information.
We also cover the difference between paid and free versions of SSL/TLS certificates. Free certificates like Let's Encrypt provide basic encryption and are suitable for most websites. They are issued for a shorter duration and must be renewed regularly. Paid certificates, on the other hand, offer additional features like extended validation (EV), which displays the organization's name in the browser's address bar, increasing credibility. They typically offer longer validity periods and may include insurance against potential security breaches.
