HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) is the processing of information shared between client and server without any encryption. In short, there is http:// at the beginning of a website address, and the information you will share and your computer, in general, are not protected by security protocols and become vulnerable to external threats.

HTTPS (Secure Hypertext Transfer Protocol) adds a security measure that allows encrypted transmission of any information between client and server. This is configured with a prevented SSL certificate.

This SSL Certificate, which should be included in banks, e-commerce sites that offer online shopping services, and similar websites, use different encryption methods for sending and storing personal information written on forms on payment pages and card information.

Thus, it provides a safe online shopping opportunity. In other words, e-commerce sites with https:// at the beginning have SSL certificates and guarantee card security in online shopping.

On websites that do not have a security certificate and specified as HTTP, all data shared between the client and the server is transmitted unencrypted. These websites, which are not protected by any security protocol, remain open to external threats and problems may occur at any time due to lack of security.

HTTPS encrypts all data between the client and the server and provides a safe environment for both itself and its users with the security measures it takes. With the security protocol called SSL certificate, your website is protected against fiber attacks in the best way. Today, many e-commerce sites guarantee the security of their users' personal data by obtaining SSL certificates.

It writes HTTPS in the URL of websites that secure its data with a security certificate, thus protecting against external threats. The advantages obtained with an SSL certificate can be briefly listed as follows:
