22173086 ONLITE central eBox HTTPS Stick
The standard product, ONLITE central eBox, communicates in the network using the unencrypted HTTP protocol. The main difference between HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) and HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) is security:
HTTP:
- Transmits data unencrypted.
- Is susceptible to man-in-the-middle attacks where data can be intercepted and manipulated.
HTTPS:
- Transmits data encrypted using SSL/TLS (Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security).
- Protects the integrity and confidentiality of data, making it more secure against eavesdropping and manipulation attempts.
HTTPS is often used for websites that process sensitive information such as login data. It provides an additional security layer that is crucial for protecting data integrity.
By using the ONLITE central eBox HTTPS USB stick, the ONLITE central CPU is encrypted and can be accessed securely via the WEB.
