HTTP:-
Http stands for Hyper Text Transfer Protocol. It allows World Wide Web users to transferring information like image, text, video, music, graphic and other files on web pages. Http is basically used to access html pages and also other resources can be accessible using HTTP.
HTTPS:-
HTTPS stands for Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure. HTTPS is a protocol which uses an encrypted HTTP connection by transport-layer security.
Sometimes, the clients may be exchanging private information with a server, which needs to be secured for preventing some hacking issue.

HTTP is Hyper Text Transfer protocol that is used in networking. Whenever basically you type a website in the browser, its is this protocol which by default listens on port 80 on the server side and helps you to see the web page on your machine.
HTTPS : This is Hypertext Transfer protocol with added security layer in place in a form on TLS/SSL. Servers and clients communicate with each other exactly same as HTTP but over a secure channel.

Rather than HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP), this site utilizes HyperText Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS). Utilizing HTTPS, the PCs concede to a "code" amongst them, and after that, they scramble the messages utilizing that "code" so that nobody in the middle of can read them. This keeps your data safe from hackers.

Http remains for Hyper Text Transfer Protocol. It permits World Wide Web clients to exchanging data like picture, content, video, music, realistic and different records on website pages. Http is fundamentally used to get to html pages furthermore different assets can be open utilizing HTTP.
HTTPS remains for Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure. HTTPS is a convention which utilizes an encoded HTTP association by transport-layer security.

http:
-Stands for "hypertext transfer protocol"
-URL begins with http://
-It has no encryption and not secure, because it is easy to gather information while passing the security during many attacks
https:
-Stands for "hypertext transfer protocol with secure"
-URL begins with https://
-It is encrypted and more secured because, while passing the information it creates a secure channel over an insecure network.

HTTP is Hyper Text Transfer protocol that is used in networking. Whenever basically you type a website in the browser, its is this protocol which by default listens at port 80 on server side and helps you to see the webpage on your machine.
HTTP is a applicaiton layer protocol and uses TCP as a underlying protocol for communicating and making connections. As I said it uses default port 80 for communication.
When ever a request is initiated by client to server, a underlying TCP handshake is done from client to server side. Once the handshake is completed then HTTP protocol start sending requests and server fulfills the request based on the data available with it.
After completing the handshake client initiates a GET request to the server. This might be anything a webpage, a form. Depending on your request you will get response from server.
HTTPS : This is Hyper text Transfer protocol with added security layer in place in form on TLS/SSL. Servers and clients communicate with each other exactly same as HTTP but over a secure channel.
The SSL layer serves for two main purpose :
1) It is confirmed after using HTTPS that you are talking to server directly that you are thinking of.
2) It also ensures that only server reads the data you sent over network. No else can read it.
An SSL connection between client and server is establish by handshake which focuses on below things :
1) To make sure that client is talking to right server
2) Both parties have agreed on a 'cipher' which includes which encryption they will use to exchange data.
3) Both parties should agree key for this algorithm
As soon as connection is established, both parties can used agreed algorithm and keys to securly send messages to each other.

Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) is the secure version of HTTP, the protocol over which data is sent between your browser and the website that you are connected to. The 'S' at the end of HTTPS stands for 'Secure'. It means all communications between your browser and the website are encrypted.

Differences are:
HTTP: Insecure, requires SSL certificate.
HTTPS: Secure and have SSL certificate.
HTTP: Insecure, requires SSL certificate.
HTTPS: Secure and have SSL certificate.

HTTP stands for Hyper Text Transfer Protocol it's basically a protocol that allows people surfing World Wide Web(WWW) to transfer information in the form of text, image, audio, video and other such Files.
HTTPS stands fro Hyper Text Transfer protocol Security,the 'S' added to the end of HTTP signifies 'Security'. Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Security is just a secure version of HTTP.

You click to check out at an online merchant. Suddenly your browser address bar says HTTPS instead of HTTP. What's going on? Is your credit card information safe?
Good news. Your information is safe. The website you are working with has made sure that no one can steal your information.
Instead of HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP), this website uses HyperText Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS).
Using HTTPS, the computers agree on a "code" between them, and then they scramble the messages using that "code" so that no one in between can read them. This keeps your information safe from hackers.
They use the "code" on a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), sometimes called Transport Layer Security (TLS) to send the information back and forth.
How does HTTP work? How is HTTPS different from HTTP? This tutorial will teach you about SSL, HTTP and HTTPS.
