# Protocols

#### HTTP

Our tutorial documents include code examples demonstrating how to connect to proxies using the HTTP protocol, and general libraries and third-party software also support this protocol.

#### HTTPS

You can also enhance security through the HTTPS protocol, which provides fully encrypted connections. Therefore, you must add "https\://" to your proxy entry point. For example: [**https://host:port.**](#http)Please note that before modifying the code to use the HTTPS protocol, be sure to check, as some programming libraries (due to outdated versions) and certain third-party tools may not support the HTTPS protocol.
