Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a cryptographic protocol used to secure communications over the internet. It is widely used in IT security to protect data in transit, such as credit card numbers, usernames, passwords, and other sensitive information. SSL provides authentication, encryption, and data integrity, ensuring that data is not tampered with during transmission. It is also used to verify the identity of the server and the client, preventing man-in-the-middle attacks. SSL is used in a variety of applications, including web browsers, email, and virtual private networks. SSL is a growing market, with many companies offering products and services related to the protocol. Examples include Symantec, DigiCert, Entrust, GlobalSign, Comodo, and GoDaddy. These companies provide SSL certificates, which are used to authenticate the identity of the server and the client, as well as encryption services to protect data in transit. Show Less Read more
