# Data in Transit Security

In-transit encryption is an effective and widely used data security solution. By encrypting data in transit, the data is transformed into a form that is unreadable to those without access. This helps protect data from unauthorized access during transmission over a network. In the case of Object Storage, in-transit encryption is typically implemented using HTTPS. HTTPS is a secure protocol based on HTTP that uses TLS/SSL encryption to protect data in transit.

Both S3 and OpenStack Swift support HTTPS. However, S3 and Swift also have some mechanisms related to subdomains. For example, S3 allows users to create buckets with subdomain names. In this case, SSL will require more certificates to be issued to accommodate the diverse name and domain structures that users need to interact with.

Here are some of the benefits of using in-transit encryption to secure data on vStorage:

* **Helps protect data from unauthorized access:** In-transit encryption helps protect data from unauthorized access during transmission over a network. This helps reduce the risk of data breaches.
* **Helps ensure data integrity:** In-transit encryption helps ensure that data is not changed or modified during transmission. This helps protect data from being tampered with or altered.
* **Helps meet regulatory requirements:** Many regulations require the use of encryption to protect sensitive data. By using in-transit encryption, businesses can meet these regulatory requirements.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.vngcloud.vn/vng-cloud-document/vstorage/object-storage/vstorage-hcm03/security/data-in-transit-security.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
