When browsing the internet, many people are not aware that their connection is not secure. Some people use public Wi-Fi networks which can be risky, as they are easy to hack. The use of HTTPS is designed to encrypt your browser’s data between you and the website you are visiting so that no one can eavesdrop on your communications or steal your information. This ensures that sensitive data, for example passwords, session cookies, or any other type of sensitive data is not captured by a man-in-the-middle attacker. Furthermore, this encryption prevents spoofs and phishing sites from mimicking legitimate websites.
