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 has got you covered!
🔐 SSL and TLS: What Are They?
We start by explaining what SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and TLS (Transport Layer Security) are. These protocols provide secure communication between a user's web browser and a website's server. They encrypt data transmitted over the internet, ensuring that sensitive information like passwords, credit card details, and personal data remain protected from prying eyes.
We also explore when a site owner should consider implementing SSL/TLS. Essentially, if your website collects any form of sensitive data or requires user login functionality, using SSL/TLS is highly recommended. By enabling these protocols, you establish a secure connection, instilling trust in your visitors and safeguarding their information.
We also shed light on the distinction between paid and free versions of SSL/TLS certificates. Free certificates, such as Let's Encrypt, offer basic encryption and are suitable for most websites. They are issued for a shorter duration and need to be renewed periodically. On the other hand, paid certificates provide additional features like extended validation (EV), which displays the organization's name in the browser's address bar, enhancing credibility. They typically offer longer validity periods and may include insurance against potential security breaches.

The most comprehensive explanation of SSL & TLS I've seen so far. Thank you!
Oh, that's great to hear, thanks @loveafinni !
Thanks, great content!

You are welcome!
Great video!!!!
Glad you liked it, @damirvalencak1348!
You should use SSL (TLS) all the time. Without it you run the risk of someone adding their own files, images, or whatever they want to send to your site without your knowledge. If you don't use it you might get google saying that your site has a virus or (worst) some law enforcement entity wanting to charge you with kitty porn.
So in this case a digital certificate instead of a pre-shared key is used for authenication, right?
Hm, not sure if this question makes sense. In this video we cover SSL/TLS in the context encryption of data exchanged between a web browser and a server.
@Sematext I am referring to digital SSL certificate. Since an SSL certificate contains a server's domain name, certificate authority and public key, it seems to be used for authentication before the encryption is started.
Congratulations, by the way!
Big like
Big thanks :)
got an exam in an hour, life saving vide
and ok i will stop using IE, coming from an edge with chakra engine next time
4:38 Was the infographic suppose to say Client instead of "Cleint"?
Yes @andrewnguyen664 - that's a typo.
@@Sematext No worries, thank you for the video. It really helped break things down to be more easily understood.
You know the switching in and out (zoom-in - Zoom-out) is really irritating and distracting. Otherwise a really helpful and informative video. Thanks
Noted, thanks.

Dude..... you are destroying the tech romance when you downgrade the sexy cloud into "someone else's computer"...... :-)
