"http" and "https" Understand Difference and Remain Safe

What is the difference between "http" and "https"?

Time to know this, with 32 lakh Debit Cards compromised in India! Some of you may be aware of this difference, but it is worth sharing for many those who are not.

"http" and "https" Understand Difference,http vs https,difference between http and https,what is http and https,redirect http to https,http to https redirect godaddy,how https works,https explained and Remain Safe


The main difference between "http://" and "https://" is all about keeping you secure.

"http" stands  for "Hyper Text Transfer  Protocol". The "s" (big  surprise) stands for "Secure". If you visit a Website or Web Page, and look at the address in the Web Browser, it is likely to begin with the following: "http://". 

This means that the Website is talking to  your Browser using the regular unsecured language. In other words, it is possible for someone to  "eavesdrop" on your computer's conversation with  the Website. If you fill out a form on the Website, someone might see the information you send to that site.
      
This is why you never ever enter your Credit Card Number in an "http://" Website! But if the Web Address begins with "https://", that means your Computer is talking to the Website in a Secure Code that no one can eavesdrop on. Now, I hope you understood why this is so important.

If a Website ever asks you to enter your Credit/Debit Card Information, you should_ _automatically look to see if the Web Address begins with  "https://". If  it doesn't, you should NEVER enter any Sensitive Information such as a Credit/Debit Card Number etc.
      
While checking the name of any Website, first look for the domain extension (Eg: ".com"  or ".org", ".co.in", ".net"  etc). The name just before this is the domain name of the Website. Eg: in the above case, "http://amazon.diwali-festivals.com", the word before ".com" is "diwali-festivals" (and NOT "amazon"). So, this Webpage does not belong to "amazon.com" but belongs to "diwali-festivals.com", which  we all haven't heard of before. You can similarly check for bank frauds.

 Before your e-banking logins, make sure that the name just before ".com" is the name of your bank. Eg: "something. icicibank.com" belongs to icici; but, "icicibank. some1else.com" belongs to "some1else."

 This is a very Simple, but an Important and Necessary Piece of Information. Please pass it on. You one 'Share' has the power to save someone's hard earned money from clutches of "Frauds".
