Both PPP and HDLC are encapsulation protocols on serial interfaces.But PPP
is better than HDLC in 2 main points:

1- PPP supports multiple network layer encapsulation (IP,IPX,AppleTalk,...)
while standard HDLC supports only IP encapsulation.[Cisco HDLC supports
multiple network layer encapsulation].

2- PPP suports both PAP and CHAP authentication protocols which provides a
secure point-to-point session while HDLC doesn't support that.
