Does HTTPS use Asymmetric or Symmetric encryption?
问题 I have searched all this morning but I've found websites where it is said that data is sent through an asymmetric encryption using the TLS protocol. Then I found the contrary. Please can you tell me which is true? Thanks. And does anyone know a guide where it is explained step by step the handshake of TLS protocol over http? 回答1: HTTP uses no encryption at all, as defined in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616 HTTPS on other hand, uses TLS which may choose from bunch of algorithms to achieve
