What is HTTPS/SSL Update?
Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) is the secure version of HTTP, the protocol over which data is sent between your browser and the website that you are connected to. The 'S' at the end of HTTPS stands for 'Secure'. It means all communications between your browser and the website are encrypted.

HTTPS stands for “Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure”, most commonly known as HTTP over SSL, or Secure Sockets Layer, which is standard security technology.
You can move your website from HTTP to HTTPS address by installing SSL certificate. Just you need to decide what type of SSL certificate is suited to your business.
When an SSL certificate is installed on your web server all your communications between a web browser and web server are authenticated & encrypted.
When visitors see the lock icon and 'https://' instead of http before the host name in the web address, they will ensure that their sensitive data is protected. The 'S' in https stands for secure.
Google HTTPS/SSL update:
Google has started to give HTTPS as a ranking signal and HTTPS/SSL-enabled secure site provides the following benefits:
1) Identity authentication: The server verifies the client's authentication by verifying the SSL certificate.
2) Privacy: All information during transit between browser and server is kept private using 256-bit encryption.
3) Data integrity: HTTP/SSL ensures visitors that sending/receiving messages between a web browser and server cannot be altered by others.
HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) is a protocol for secure communication over the internet. It is an extension of the regular HTTP protocol, and it uses an SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) or TLS (Transport Layer Security) certificate to encrypt data sent between a web server and a web browser. An update to HTTPS/SSL would refer to a new version or patch of the SSL/TLS protocol being released, or to a change in the way that web browsers or servers implement SSL/TLS. These updates can be made to address security vulnerabilities or to improve the overall security of the protocol.
