HTML5 is a set of HTML, CSS3 and newer javascripts. Such feature as video playback and canvas rendering are introduced.

Most noticeable is the HTML5 Video player.. that the browser plays webm and mp4 directly in the browser and using javascript to control it.

There are many new features included in HTML5 and some of them are:-
1. Web Workers: They use separate background threads for processing and it does not effect the performance of a web page.
2.Video: In this video becomes as easy as embedding an image.
3.Canvas: You can use so much graphics cause of it.
4.Application caches: Now information will get stored. It works like cookies, but where cookies are small, the new feature allows for much larger files.
5. Geolocation: Nice for use on mobile devices.
And it also provide secure devops with less chances of vulnerabilities.And while developing the application or website on through any software web application security best practices is very important so that we can protect the software or website from future attacks.

HTML5 is just a new version of HTML it brings lot of new features to HTML which were not available previously.
HTML5 also introduces number of API.The API which are introduce can be used for the audio and video.
The most common difference between HTML and HTML5 is video and audio only as it is not part of HTML.
HTML create only static page while HTML5 create both static and dynamic page.
