Users can tell when a website is secured with SSL just by looking at the green padlock in your browser bar. When you click on the lock, it will take you to the company's certificate and show that they are secure and verified by a third party. This verification process guard against fraud and ensures that when you're browsing online, the information you share is protected.

SSL is short for Secure Sockets Layer, it is the technology that ensures the security of your information when you are using websites. It protects usernames, passwords, and other sensitive data from hackers who might be trying to steal it. SSL creates an encrypted connection between your browser and the website's server so that any information transmitted stays secure. Websites without SSL encryption leave you open to cyberattacks like man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks or phishing techniques where hackers can intercept your information while it travels over public networks.
