How does HTTPS work? What's a CA? What's a self-signed Certificate?
Ғылым және технология
Is HTTPS really that difficult? Do I need to know crypto theory and a lot of math to understand it? You don't! This video explains how HTTPS works in very simple terms. It will touch upon encryption and digital signatures, as well as explaining what a trusted Certificate Authority is and what a self-signed certificate is.
We will build upon this knowledge in upcoming videos, when we plan to issue a self-signed certificate to secure a microservice app in a testing environment.
You no longer have an excuse to say HTTPS is too complex. Because this video simplifies all the concepts in less than 12 minutes.

This 11 min video was more educating then an entire course of pluralsight on How HTTPS works. Thank you for this.

I would like to add, for clarity, that: 1. A message encrypted with a public key is used for secrecy - The message can only be decrypted with the corresponding private key, but you cannot verify who the owner is. 2. A message encrypted with a private key is used for authentication - The message owner can be verified if you know the corresponding public key, but is not secret. - This is why a web browsers have a record of public keys for CA Authorities - so they can verify that a "public key certificate" is signed by the a real CA Authority

so you mean to say google exposes both public key and private key? then the attackers will be able to decrypt right?
Finally!!! I’ve been looking for so long to understand it. After this video, the whole process now makes all sense in my mind. Awesome channel by the way. Keep doing it!
Thank you very kindly. You explain better than most profs, teaching is an art and you’re a natural. Keep up the good work
I don’t know what it is but listening to videos that explain anything about technology in detail, I find calming. Loved the video.
Awesome. Came here for a refresher on HTTPS to prepare for interview and this video was way beyond what I expected to find in such a short video. You just got yourself a new subscriber. I admire people like you who can give so much information in a short time and in a way that is so easy to understand.

The diagram at 3:55 is very insightful. It manages to summarize what other videos fail to summarize in 20 minutes. Well done!
I was banging my head from 5 days to understand ssl setup to secure my kafka cluster.. And finally my woes are over. Thanks from the deepest bottom of my heart
Best, clearest and most concise explanation I've ever seen about this. Kudos!
Thank you for your time and efforts with this video. I 100% completely understand how HTTPS works with the browsers now with self-signed and CA. This even answered a question I had with a security software my company uses and a certain error message I would see. Great work!
One of the best videos over KZread. Thankyou for explaining it so well.
After watching a couple of videos on HTTPS, I came to this video, now I feel that I don't need to search for any other videos. Best explanation ever, thanks for this video.
It´s delightful how you role the technical details out and still kept focused on the objective. Grats!

What an explanation! So much clarity and very well explained. Thank you so much for doing this!
One of the best videos for understanding SSL. I have been searching for a proper explanation since a long time and this video helped me understand what it really is.
Wow. Mate you have amazing skills on explaining things. The neat and the best explanation on Https which I ever seen on the internet. Keep it up ur good work.
I like it. This video, should be 1st video to view/watch, if anyone is starting with ssl, https, tls etc.
Lot of videos talk what is SSL and how it works, but your video talks extensively about certificates explaining why one needs to have it !!! Your way of explanation is very simple, without graphics, jargon. Thanks a bunch!!!

Amazing explanation. That was a great way of explaining a complex subject in a very understandable way! Loved it.
For so many years I have been just looking at https in the browser, without ever trying to know how it works. Thanks for the enlightening video👌
Thank you for this very clear and concise explanantion! Recenty my employer started with MITM monitoring and I found this tutorial video very useful in order to understand that. I also tried to understand the underlying mathematics behind RSA encryption which was quite interesting as well if any one of you cares to know.
This is the best, most precise and concise explanation. Thanks!
Ok, i only saw it halfway. And the first part already started to make clearer sense to me. Background: a friend of mine explained this to me without me having any idea of the who does what and why. This video puts things (what I've been taught earlier and what is now being displayed) into perspective. Kudos :)
Thanks for this - I can see myself coming back to this explanation time and time again, it's so clear.

Exactly what I was looking for for a long time!! Thanks a ton. This cleared all my doubts. I am marking this for future reference.

This is one of the best videos made on HTTPS. Thank you!
This was a very helpful and informative overview of HTTPS and certificates. Thanks for the video and best of luck on your channel!
Wow a lot of concepts in a nutshell.... Very effective!! Just one suggestion to add - The CA certificate which is signed by the CA authority statically resides in the computer either through browser or - If we have our own CA certificate, then we implant it into the browser by copying into it. So practically we can also mention in the video where the CA certificate is stored in each case which is the only missing part according to me. Thanks a lot for the video again!
