SSL is a networking protocol that secures connections between web clients and web servers using encryption. It was the first widely implemented protocol to secure communications between client and server systems. SSL is essential for e-commerce, as it ensures data privacy and facilitates secure transactions. It uses certificates to authenticate the devices communicating.

Websites now display the HTTPS prefix to indicate use of SSL or its more secure successor, Transport Layer Security (TLS).
