The talk will focus on the provision of mass for the charged fermions, i.e., the Yukawa couplings in the Standard Model.  In particular, the recent 5-sigma CMS measurement of Higgs to ττ decays will be presented. Additionally, the talk will cover potential physics beyond the Standard Model using the Higgs boson to search for weakly interacting massive particle dark matter.
