Which is more reliable: SSL or HTTPS?

1.	Which is more reliable: SSL or HTTPS?
Answer» SSL (SECURE Sockets Layer) is a secure technology that allows two or more parties to communicate securely over the internet. To PROVIDE security, it works on top of HTTP. It works at the Presentation layer. HTTPS (HYPERTEXT Transfer Protocol Secure) is a COMBINATION of HTTP and SSL that uses encryption to create a more secure surfing experience. The working of HTTPS involves the top 4 LAYERS of the OSI model, i.e, Application Layer, Presentation Layer, Session Layer, and Transport Layer. SSL is more secure than HTTPS in terms of security.
