HTTPS stands for HyperText Transfer Protocol Secure. It is an extension of HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol), the protocol used for transferring data over the web. The key difference between HTTP and HTTPS is the addition of security features that protect data exchanged between a user's web browser and the web server.
