Answer was C
To ensure that all Data transmitted is safe,you should use SSL ( Secure Sockets Layer) to securely encrypt the Information and install a Web Server certificate (Also referred to as a digital certificate) to ensure trusted authentication between the Server and the client.
A certificate is a digital document or identification used for authentication and the secure exchange of information on non secured Networks like the Internet.
A trusted Certificate Authority ( CA) issues Certificates after the Authority has verified the entity's identity.The CA proviedes a trusted third party for both communicating parties.Certificates are digitally signed by the issuing CA and can be managed for a user, computer, or service.
SSL relies upon certificates.
The SSL protocol provides communications privacy,authentication, and message integrity by using a combination of public-key and symmetric encryption.SSL connections between a web browser and web server must use the HTTPS protocol rather than the HTTP protocol in the URL.
This instructs the web browser to use the SSL port(TCP port 443) instead of the default HTTP port (TCP port 80). |
