Web: HTTP & HTTPS
HTTP and HTTPS move nearly everything on the web, yet the details — ports, certificates, and what encryption actually protects — are easy to gloss over. This quiz tests the fundamentals.
Questions cover the default ports for HTTP and HTTPS, what SSL/TLS actually provides, certificate authorities, man-in-the-middle attacks, and the HTTP methods used to retrieve and submit data.
Know exactly what HTTPS protects you from — and what it doesn't? This quiz will confirm it.
