SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encrypts the connection between a user’s browser and a website’s server. This keeps data private and prevents others from reading or changing it while it travels across the internet.
- Benefits of SSL

- Improves SEO – Search engines prefer secure (HTTPS) websites.
- Prevents Attacks – Helps protect against data theft and man-in-the-middle attacks.
