Understanding Transport Layer Security

Transport Layer Security (TLS) is a cryptographic protocol that ensures privacy and data integrity for communications over a network. It provides a secure channel between two machines, encrypting the data transmitted to prevent eavesdropping and tampering. TLS certificates are used to authenticate servers and establish a secure connection, commonly seen in secure websites (HTTPS) and email communication.
