Importance of HTTPS Technology for Your Website’s Security & Credibility

If you stay in the touch of internet frequently, you might be familiar with the term SSL certificate and HTTPS. Webmasters, e-commerce business owners and even general users take a website's security very seriously nowadays since the cyber crimes have monstrously raised in the recent years and the term 'data theft' doesn't sound alien.

As more and more people purchase goods online, and the internet is experiencing huge money transactions every day, the risk of a security breach in relatively old and comparatively less secure internet protocol (HTTP) is increasing. I have seen many development firms including Joomla development companies in USA suggesting their clients opt for HTTPS certificate despite its being rather expensive.  

What is HTTP, HTTPS, and SSL and How Do They Affect Website's Security?
HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) is a protocol that helps establish a connection between the client and server where the browser acting as the client.  

HTTP has been in existence for years and thus, is more prone to security breaches. HTTPS, also known as TLS, SSL, and HTTP secure has become the norm of secure connection across the globe today, being the better alternative to cliched HTTP protocols.

The communications or file transfers via HTTPS are highly secure because the messages get encrypted by Secure Socket Layer and thus,  man-in-the-middle (hackers) attacks become unuseful as encrypted data is almost unextractable if you are lacking the key to decrypt it.

Why Do You Need HTTPS for Your Website?
Being a Joomla development service, a secure connection will save you from a slew of complications you might face in future due to lack of security such as: Losing customer's trust, being caught up in legal issues, and losing valuable data and money. Moreover, it's after better to stay ahead of your competitors who haven't planned to maximize their website's security yet.
