4.12.3 HTTPs

Configure HTTPS on this page.

HTTPS

is an acronym for Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer. It is used to indicate a secure HTTP

connection. HTTPS provide authentication and encrypted communication and is widely used on the World Wide Web for

security-sensitive communication such as payment transactions and corporate logons.

HTTPS is really just the use of Netscape's Secure Socket Layer (SSL) as a sublayer under its regular HTTP application

layering. (HTTPS uses port 443 instead of HTTP port 80 in its interactions with the lower layer, TCP/IP.) SSL uses a 40-bit key

size for the RC4 stream encryption algorithm, which is considered an adequate degree of encryption for commercial exchange.
