# SSL

## <mark style="color:orange;">About SSL</mark>

🔷 SSL is the standard in **online security.**  It is used to **encrypt data** sent over the Internet between a client (your computer) and a server (a website's computer).  This automatically prevents many types of attacks: if a hacker intercepts encrypted data, the hacker can't read it or use it without the private decryption key.\
🔷SSL makes many websites more secure. It often protects data from being **stolen**, **modified**, or **spoofed**.  No website can ever be perfectly safe, but any website that stores personal information or other sensitive data should have SSL to add a **greater level of security** to the site.\
🔷The low-risk, high-reward nature of **SSL/TLS vulnerability** ensures that these trends will continue, placing organizations at risk of breach, failed audits, and unplanned system downtime.  &#x20;
