Description SSL (secure socket layer protocol), currently using TLS 1.2 or greater encryption, is used to secure transmissions between servers and clients. Example: Visiting a https address from Google Chrome or Safari. SSL / TLS certificates allow clients to verify a server's authenticity against known Certificate Authorities before establishing an encrypted connection. This helps determine if the server is who they say they are.
