HTTPS & Web Security
HTTPS (HTTP Secure) uses TLS/SSL to encrypt data between browser and server. Key security headers: HSTS (forces HTTPS), CSP (Content Security Policy, prevents XSS), X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options.
⚡Why It Matters
HTTPS has been a Google ranking factor since 2014. Chrome now warns 'Not Secure' on HTTP pages. HSTS prevents downgrade attacks, CSP protects against XSS — both are AI trust signals.
