Which of these ports is normally associated with HTTPS?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

HTTPS is a protocol that encrypts and secures the communication between web browsers and servers. HTTPS uses SSL or TLS certificates to establish a secure connection and prevent unauthorized access or tampering of data. HTTPS typically uses port 443, which is the default port for HTTPS connections. Port 443 is different from port 80, which is the default port for HTTP connections. HTTP is an unencrypted and insecure protocol that can expose sensitive information or allow malicious attacks. Port 443 is also different from port 5050, which is a common port for some applications or services, such as Yahoo Messenger or SIP. Port 5050 is not associated with HTTPS and does not provide any encryption or security. Port 443 is also different from port 25, which is the default port for SMTP, the protocol used for sending and receiving emails. Port 25 is not associated with HTTPS and does not encrypt the email content or headers. Reference:

Port 80 for HTTPS? Come on, that's just the regular HTTP port. I hope the person who picked that isn't the one designing my company's network security.

Hmm, 5050 for HTTPS? I don't think so. That's more like a port for some random web server, not secure communications.

I'm going with A. 443. It's the secure port for HTTP, makes sense it would be used for HTTPS too.

Port 443, duh! That's the standard for HTTPS encryption. Anyone who doesn't know that shouldn't be taking this exam.
