Describe how SSL/TLS works when a system communicates securely with a Web site

What will be an ideal response?


The computer obtains the public key of the Web site to which it will connect. Then it generates a key for symmetric encryption. It encodes that key using the Web site's public key. It sends the encrypted symmetric key to the Web site. The Web site then decodes the symmetric key using its private key. From that point forward, the computer and the Web site communicate using symmetric encryption.
