HTTPS: The New Standard?, Module 3 Discussion help

More and more websites are adopting Hypertext Transport Protocol Secure (HTTPS) as a security protocol. What are the advantages of HTTPS? What are the disadvantages? How is HTTPS different from HTTP?

State your opinion and supporting arguments. Challenge at least two other peers' posts with the opposite argument, even if you truly agree with their opinion and reasoning.
