You know the difference between http and https ?

  • HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol):

HTTP is the standard protocol used for transferring data over the web. 
It operates over plain text, which means the data exchanged between the client and server is not encrypted. 
This lack of encryption makes HTTP susceptible to various security threats, such as eavesdropping, man-in-the-middle attacks, and data tampering.
In Node.js, you can create HTTP servers and clients using the built-in http module.        

  • HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure):

HTTPS is an extension of HTTP that adds a layer of security through SSL/TLS encryption.
It uses SSL/TLS certificates to encrypt the data transmitted between the client and server, ensuring confidentiality and integrity.
HTTPS protects against eavesdropping, man-in-the-middle attacks, and other security vulnerabilities inherent in plain HTTP.
In Node.js, you can create HTTPS servers and clients using the built-in https module. Setting up an HTTPS server involves configuring SSL/TLS certificates, either self-signed or obtained from a trusted certificate authority (CA).
