What is a domain name pointer?

What is SSL?
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a protocol originally developed by Netscape Communications to enable encrypted, authenticated communications across the Internet. SSL is used mostly (but not exclusively) in communication between web browsers and web servers. URL's that begin with "https://" indicate that an SSL connection will be used. SSL provides three important things: privacy, authentication, and message integrity. In an SSL connection the session between the person browsing a site and the server (where the web site is located) is secured so that the information entered cannot be intercepted by third parties.
