Plain-English definition

SSL

What it means

SSL is the technology that scrambles the information traveling between your users and your app so no one can snoop on it along the way. It's what turns the little padlock on in the browser and reassures people the connection is safe.

In plain terms

Like sending a letter inside a sealed, tamper-proof envelope instead of on an open postcard that anyone handling it could read.
