TLS (Transport Layer Security) and its predecessor SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) are cryptographic protocols that provide secure communication over a computer network. TLS and SSL operate by establishing a secure connection between a client and a server, ensuring that the data exchanged between them is encrypted and integrity-protected.
