Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)

Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is the standard protocol used for transmitting data over the internet, including online meeting content. HTTP facilitates the communication between a user’s web browser and web servers, allowing the retrieval and display of web pages, documents, images, and other online resources. In the context of online meetings, HTTP plays a critical role in delivering web-based meeting platforms, content sharing, and the transmission of data between meeting participants. Secure variations, such as HTTPS, incorporate encryption to protect data during transmission, ensuring the confidentiality and integrity of online meeting content.
