Here is a sample certificate: Company Root CA 9 It contains also the public key and a hash to ensure that the certificate has not been tampered with. A certificate contains information about the owner of the certificate, such as the organization, country, duration of validity, website address, and the certificate ID of the person who certifies (signs) this information. TLS/SSL uses certificates to secure and protect transmitted data. The difference between HTTP and HTTPS is that in HTTPS the data is transferred on top of SSL protocols and inherits all of its security. When a URL address contains HTTPS, the 'S' stands for secure, it indicates data is being transmitted securely.
For additional details on versions of TLS/SSL that we support, see TLS/SSL frequently asked questions. TLS/SSL ensures that the data transmitted comes from the source it claims to be coming from and has not been modified or read by a 3rd party during the transmission. Transport Security Layer ("TLS") and Secure Sockets Layer ("SSL") are protocols designed to ensure that data can be securely transported between a web server and a browser using cryptographic algorithms.
