Encryption plays an essential role in SSL that uses the SHA-2 hash algorithm. The SHA-2 family includes hash values like SHA-224, 256, 384, and 512. Earlier, SHA-1 was in force, but somehow it seemed a weak algorithm against attacks. Currently, most certificate authorities offer SHA-256 encryption for the online security of transactions. The more robust encryption you use, the more your information is secured. It is because encryption creates a secure channel through which sensitive information passes.
