    The key features of HTTP are that it transfers web pages quickly, works with HTML pages and is
                      widely used. However, it is not secure because the data it sends is not encrypted.

                                HYPERTEXT TRANSFER PROTOCOL SECURE

                      Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) is a safer version of
                      HTTP because it creates an encrypted connection between your

                      browser and the web server. This protects your information from
                      being  read or changed  during transfer.  Websites that  handle
                      sensitive data, such as passwords or payments, use HTTPS.
                      Its  key  features  include encrypting  data,  protecting  personal

                      details  like  passwords  and bank  information  and showing  a
                      padlock  symbol  in the browser to  indicate  security.  HTTPS  is
                      important because it keeps your information safe when you sign in or make online transactions. It
                      works by creating a secure, encrypted link that prevents others from accessing your data.

                                TRANSMISSION CONTROL PROTOCOL/INTERNET PROTOCOL

                      Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is the main communication system used
                      on the Internet. It helps computers in different networks, including LANs and WANs, communicate
                      and share data reliably.

                      Its key  features  include  breaking  data  into  small packets,
                      sending those packets across networks and reassembling them
                      correctly at the destination. TCP/IP is important because it allows
                      different  computers  and  networks  to  exchange  information
                      smoothly. It works by letting TCP divide the data into packets,

                      while IP finds  the  best  route  and  delivers  the  packets  to  the
                      correct address.
