Hyper Text Transfer protocol works well with web application. It encrypts traffic between web browser and a website. The user might have seen often an http or https appears on the address bar. This is a protocol which helps to transfer information from client to the web server.
HTTPS is a secured connection established between the client and server. It is always recommended to access only secured website so that it prevents the user from hacking the content from the user’s machine or pass virus to the system.
