The HTTP plaintext protocol is an insecure transmission protocol, which can neither verify the real identity of the server nor provide encryption protection for the transmission data. The data transmitted through the HTTP protocol is always at the risk of being eavesdropped, tampered with, or impersonated. The website using SSL certificate is the https encrypted transmission protocol, which has many advantages.

Applet Prerequisites
Applets have always been known as "APP killer". How can developers miss this wave of WeChat dividends on the business explosion that WeChat may bring with its huge social user base?
However, WeChat also has many restrictions on small programs, such as file size, request server must be HTTPS, etc. To implement the server side HTTPS request, you need to configure the ssl certificate on the server side.
Apple APP Essential

Ensure website data security

SSL certificates can also
1. Data transmission encryption
Our usual Internet access and browsing are based on the standard TCP/IP protocol, and the content is transmitted on the network in the form of data packets. Since the content of the packet is not encrypted, anyone who intercepts the packet can obtain its content. If the user name, password or other personal information is transmitted in the data packet, it is easy to be stolen by others.
SSL can establish an encrypted channel between the client (such as the browser) and the server used by the user. All data transmitted on the network will be encrypted first, and then decrypted after being transmitted to the destination. In this way, even if the data packet is intercepted in the transmission process, it is difficult to crack its contents.
2. Server information certification
At present, the phishing website has become a serious threat in the use of the Internet. The phishers can create an interface exactly like the real website, and use similar domain names to guide users to visit. If the user does not pay attention, it is easy to be fooled. Once the user enters the account password and other information during the use of the phishing website, it will be recorded by the phishing website, and then be used falsely, threatening the security of the user's account.
The SSL server certificate can effectively prove the real information of the website and the legitimacy of using the domain name, so that users can easily identify the real website and the phishing website. When applying for an SSL certificate, the identity of the applicant will be confirmed through strict review. Users can see the content of the certificate when visiting the website, including the real domain name of the website, the owner of the website, the certificate issuing organization and other information. The browser will also give corresponding security signs so that visitors can use them with confidence.
