The Internet today is not just a network of websites — it’s an entire ecosystem where security, trust, and user convenience have become key indicators of quality. One of the most visible elements of this security is HTTPS — a protocol that ensures secure data exchange between the user and the website. If in the past HTTPS was associated exclusively with banking services or online stores, now it has become the standard for any modern website. Google has long established that the presence of an SSL certificate — which enables HTTPS — affects not only user safety but also a website’s position in search results.

ChatGPT is a powerful tool that generates text-based answers from a vast dataset, but it is not a database of facts. It produces plausibly sounding responses (answers that seem convincing and logical, even if they may be inaccurate or fabricated) by relying on language patterns. This means that even when answers sound confident, they may still be false or incomplete. Reviews show that the model can make mistakes in simple questions and continue making them even after corrections. This means its conclusions should be treated as suggestions rather than absolute truth. That is why it is important for users to follow safety rules and verify the information.

Imagine downloading a program from the internet. Your system shows a warning: “This file may be unsafe. The publisher is unknown.” You hesitate. Should you run it? Most users will hesitate — or refuse to proceed at all.

That’s where code signing comes in. It ensures that the file is authentic, secure, and hasn’t been tampered with. A digital signature shows users and systems that the code came from a verified source and remains unchanged since publication.
