Описание: Most people just see a padlock in the browser and think, “Secure, cool.” But do you actually know what HTTPS does—or what happens when it’s broken, expired, or misconfigured?

In this episode, Charly explains how HTTPS works, what SSL certificates do behind the scenes, and why this protocol is critical for trust, security, and even search engine rankings.

📌 In this episode:

✅ What HTTPS is and how it protects your data

✅ What SSL certificates do — and who verifies them

✅ Why that padlock builds customer trust (and Google juice)

✅ What causes certificate errors and mixed content blocks

🛡️ The risks of self-signed certificates and expired setups

🔗 Tip: Use Let’s Encrypt or Cloudflare for free, trusted SSL certificates
