- TLS (Transport Layer *Security*) is besides authentication about establishing an encrypted connection between endpoints, just like its predecessor SSL (*Secure* Socket Layers)
- HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol *Secure*) is HTTP over a secured connection (SSL or TLS)

Totally not helpful comment ;)
