This link ensures that all data passed between the server and the client remain private and secure. It was designed to support protocols such as FTP , HTTP , TELNET . HISTORY OF SSL : The Secure Sockets Layer or SSL was developed by Netscape in 1994 to provide security for web traffic. The first version “ SSL version 1.0 ”, due to its weak cryptographic algorithms and some security flaws, it was never released for public use. The second version 2.0 was released in 1995 considered fairly strong, used MD5. But, it was vulnerable. The next version 3.0 was released in 1996. Which was a complete redesign of the protocol.
