Well,
Encryption is a way to protect your data from theft/eaves-dropping. so, its a branch of Security. Security is a general topic which deals with securing data over network. SSL is a protocol, which if enabled can assure you of some security in your communication, i.e data transfer your network.
One security mechanisam is to use SHTML i.e secured html. Kerberos is a different protocol of achieving various services over the network.

What exactly are you trying to do.......?
