- pixl97 10y agoSSL is only one type of security, and not a large one at that. It mostly only protects data that is in flight between SSL libraries on each end of the connection. Of course those SSL terminators become the target of attacks, and as of so far a big one comes out every once in a while. OpenSSL, for example, is generally considered a large piece of crap. That said I do agree that pushes, especially from Google, have made HTTPS much more secure lately.
