Welcome to GitLab's Secure Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTPS)

GitLab's Secure Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTPS) is a secure method of transferring data over the internet, ensuring that sensitive information remains confidential and protected from eavesdropping.

By default, all traffic between your local machine and GitLab servers is encrypted using SSL/TLS. This means that even if someone intercepts the traffic, they will not be able to read or modify it without having access to the decryption key.

Why Choose GitHub Active Deny List for Secure Access

GitHub's Active Deny List (ADL) is a feature that allows GitLab to control who can access your repository and server. By enabling ADL, you can prevent unauthorized users from accessing sensitive data or performing malicious actions.

ADL works by identifying and blocking known malicious IP addresses, while allowing approved traffic to pass through. This ensures that only trusted users have access to your GitLab server, reducing the risk of security breaches and data theft.

Advantages of Using HTTPS in Your Project

• Enhanced Security: Ensures that sensitive information remains confidential and protected from eavesdropping.
• Reduced Risk of Data Breaches: Prevents unauthorized access to your project data or servers.
• Improved Trust: Demonstrates a commitment to security and responsible use of technology.
