This article will explain in detail the methods of HTTPS to ensure enterprise information security. The editor thinks it is very practical, so I share it for you as a reference. I hope you can get something after reading this article.

The Internet era brings endless business opportunities to enterprises, but at the same time, it also brings certain risks to enterprise information security. Today, the editor will talk about how the HTTPS website ensures the security of enterprise information.

Because the traditional HTTP website uses plaintext data transmission mode for data exchange, there is a risk that the data will be stolen. Suppose you have made a contract that is about to be transmitted to the other party through the network, if the website is HTTP, then your contract will be transmitted in clear text. If it is intercepted by a third party in the process of transmission, then the interceptor will be able to fully know the amount and content of your contract, and even tamper with your contract amount and send it to the other party. Using the HTTP website will have this very big information security hidden danger.

The so-called website hijacking, in fact, uses the HTTP plaintext transmission of this loophole. When a user visits a website through a URL, in fact, it will go through a lot of access nodes to the end of the website server. If these intermediate nodes are hacked, then the hacker can transfer your visit to another illegal website. Then what users see is no longer the content of the original website, this is website hijacking.

The use of HTTPS website can prevent the above enterprise information security problems.

HTTPS is an upgrade of HTTP, which adds encrypted transmission to HTTP. Before the packet is sent, the SSL certificate is used to encrypt the original data with public key, and the encrypted ciphertext is then transmitted over the network. Due to the use of public key encryption, the private key must be used for decryption, but the private key is stored in the server and cannot be obtained by others. Therefore, the data will still be intercepted by the third party in the process of transmission, but because the interceptor can not get the decrypted private key, then the data intercepted by him is only a series of meaningless ciphertext, which can well protect the security of enterprise information.

HTTPS website can also effectively prevent website hijacking. To establish a HTTPS website, it is necessary to apply for a SSL certificate, and to apply for a SSL certificate must go through a strict review process, after which the CA authority will write the applied website information into the SSL certificate. If the site is hijacked, the content returned by the page must not match the SSL certificate, and the web browser will find it and issue a security prompt as soon as possible. In this way, you can well identify whether the site has been hijacked, and users can know whether there is a risk of visiting the site.

If your business also has a website, if your website still uses the insecure network protocol of HTTP, then hurry to apply for a SSL certificate and upgrade your website to a secure HTTPS site.

On the HTTPS to ensure enterprise information security methods to share here, I hope that the above content can be of some help to you, can learn more knowledge. If you think the article is good, you can share it for more people to see.
