After the seven years, Google brought support for encrypted HTTPS connections to almost all of its products, including search, Gmail and Google Drive. It’s now even using HTTPS support as a ranking signal in its search results. Starting today, the company is also bringing HTTPS support to its Blogspot blogging platform. Now we can easily encrypt and ensure the complete security of our blog via just activating this HTPPS feature on our blog.
What is HTTPS
HTTPS is a protocol for secure communication over acomputer network which is widely used on the Internet. HTTPS consists of communication over Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) within a connection encrypted by Transport Layer Security or its predecessor, Secure Sockets Layer. The main motivation for HTTPS is authentication of the visited website and to protect the privacy and integrity of the exchanged data.Benefits of HTTPS
- Protection from hackers
- The user trusts that the browser software correctly implements HTTPS with correctly pre-installed certificate authorities
- The user trusts the certificate authority to vouch only for legitimate websites.
- The website provides a valid certificate, which means it was signed by a trusted authority.
- The user trusts that the protocol's encryption layer (TLS/SSL) is sufficiently secure against eavesdroppers.
