Certificate Authority ?
Problem : How can we trust a website claiming to be who they are ?
Me browser https://www.youtube.com
-------------------------->
give me youtube
<-------------------------
youtube certificate contain
youtube public key signed by Google CA
-------------------------->
Google CA is trusted , therefore the youtube
public key is trusted.
here are the new secret key encrypted with youtube public key
Due to it was encrypted with youtube public key,
therefore youtube will be able to decrypt it with
youtube private key and able to read the new secret key.
<------------------------------->
All future communication between my browser and youtube
will be encrypted with the new secret key.
Therefore the commuinication is secure and each party is trust as who they claim.
