HTTPS is not replayable, the first server response in the handshake sequence includes a server-chosen random number. What Fiddler does is act as a proxy, meaning it intercepts your browser’s requests, and then generates an identical request to the server, meaning it has access to the plaintext, which is what it will be replaying. Your … Read more
Very simply, HTTPS uses Secure Socket Layer to encrypt data that is transferred between client and server. SSL uses the RSA algorithm https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSA_(cryptosystem), an asymmetric encryption technology. The precise details of how the algorithm works is complex, but basically it leverages the fact that whilst multiplying two large prime numbers together is easy, factoring the … Read more
If you open the Postman Console, it’s the 3rd icon on bottom left side of the app, this will show you the details of the request and response. https://learning.postman.com/docs/postman/sending-api-requests/debugging-and-logs/
The proxy can add extra (or overwrite) headers to requests it receives and passes through to the back-end. These can be used to communicate information to the back-end. So far I’ve seen a couple used for forcing the use of https in URL scheme: X-Forwarded-Protocol: https X-Forwarded-Ssl: on X-Url-Scheme: https And wikipedia also mentions: # … Read more
Technically There are several technical reasons why HTTP/2 is much better and easier to handle over HTTPS: Doing HTTP/2 negotiation in TLS with ALPN is much easier and doesn’t lose round-trips like Upgrade: in plain HTTP does. And it doesn’t suffer from the upgrade problem on POST that you get with plain-text HTTP/2. N% of … Read more
The connection is encrypted even if the SSL certificate isn’t valid (expired, snake-oil, untrusted CA, etc.). The SSL certificate validation just makes sure you’re connecting to the folks you think you’re connecting to. Encryption doesn’t do you any good if the folks decrypting your data are crackers instead of PayPal.
There are two separate but interdependent levels of indirection to consider here. The first is what IP address a DNS name ultimately resolves to. The second is what the server on that IP address does. Remember that when you type a URL into a browser, the first thing that happens is a DNS lookup. Usually, … Read more

In Apache2.2 following line is uncommented in apache/conf/httpd.conf by default. LoadModule socache_shmcb_module modules/mod_socache_shmcb.so From Apache 2.4 above line is commented so remove the # sign before it. This should work.
As John suggested: ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback += (sender, certificate, chain, sslPolicyErrors) => true;
