Handshakes

A handshake is a digital "hello" between two systems, like your computer and a website's server, establishing a secure communication channel. It's a process where both sides exchange information to agree on things like encryption methods and session keys. Think of it as a secret agreement before any real conversation happens, ensuring that the data exchanged afterward is protected from eavesdropping or tampering. It verifies identities and sets up a secure connection before any sensitive data is transmitted.
