What is an SSL or HTTPS proxy

SSL(Secure Sockets Layer) and HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) proxy are technologies for secure data transmission, which are mainly used to protect the data transmitted on the Internet and ensure the confidentiality and integrity of the data.

SSL proxy is an intermediate server, which establishes SSL connection between client (such as browser) and target server. It can encrypt and decrypt the transmitted data to ensure that the data will not be stolen or tampered with during transmission.

SSL proxy encrypts the communication between client and server to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks. Through SSL certificate, the agent can verify the identity of the server and ensure that the user connects to the correct server. Ensure that the data has not been modified during transmission.

HTTPS proxy is a proxy server that uses HTTPS protocol. It protects HTTP requests and responses through SSL/TLS encryption protocol to ensure the security of data during transmission. Through the HTTPS proxy, users can access web pages safely and protect personal information and sensitive data. HTTPS proxy can hide the real IP address of users and improve the privacy of surfing the Internet. Content filtering: Some HTTPS agents can filter the transmitted data to prevent malicious content or inappropriate information.

Enterprises usually use SSL or HTTPS proxy to protect employees' network activities and prevent data leakage. In public Wi-Fi environment, using HTTPS proxy can increase security and protect users' sensitive information. Users can access restricted websites through HTTPS proxy, while protecting their privacy.

SSL and HTTPS proxy are designed to improve network security. They protect users' data through encryption and authentication, and prevent data from being stolen or tampered with during transmission. Using these agents can enhance online privacy and security.
