When you access a site with 'https' instead of 'http' in the address bar, it primarily means :

  • A.You are accessing a speedy connection
  • B.You are accessing a secure communication
  • C.You are accessing a single date line transfer
  • D.You are accessing a smartphone friendly website

Answer: B

It primarily means You are accessing a secure communication.

HTTPS is HTTP over TLS/SSL: the data exchanged between the browser and the website is encrypted, and the site's identity is verified by a certificate. This protects passwords and payment details from interception.

The 'S' stands for secure, not speed, a 'single date line' or smartphones; HTTPS can even add a little overhead to a connection.
