How do I know whether my PC is safe?
If you are judicious in opening email attachments and have the up to date anti-virus software on your PC and have turned off the file sharing option on your operating system (unless you need it for use in an office or home network) then your PC is reasonably safe. Try not to leave the PC connected to the Internet when it is not in use. It is advisable to install firewall if you have a permanent connection e.g. broadband access. As a further measure, make sure you keep back up copies of important information on floppy disk, CD-ROM or another storage device so that you can retrive your data in the event of virus attacks or computer break down.
How can I ensure the web page is secured?
There are two general indications of a secured web page:
- Check the web page URL
Normally, when browsing the web, the URLs (web page addresses) begin with the letters "http". However, the web page address over a secure connection begins with "https" - note the "s" at the end.
- Check for the "Lock" icon
There is a de facto standard among web browsers to display a "lock" icon somewhere in the window of the browser (NOT in the web page display area!).
Click (or double-click) on this to see details of the site's security.
Be diligent to distinguish the right padlock symbol because some fraudulent web sites are built with a bar at the bottom of the web page to imitate the lock icon of your browser!

Once this connection is established, you can transmit any amount of information to the Web server safely. In contrast, the S-HTTP is designed to transmit individual messages.

What is 128-bit Secure Socket Layer?
SSL stands for "Secure Sockets Layer". It is a protocol designed to enable applications to transmit information back and forth securely. Applications that use this protocol inherently know how to give and receive encryption keys with other applications, as well as how to encrypt and decrypt data sent between the two.SSL has been universally accepted on the World Wide Web for authenticated and encrypted communication between the customer's computer and servers.
Some applications that are configured to run SSL includes web browsers like Internet Explorer and Netscape, email programs like GroupWise, Outlook, and Outlook Express, FTP (file transfer protocol) programs, etc. These programs are automatically able to receive SSL connections.
To send an SSL connection, however, or to open a secure connection, your application must first have an encryption key assigned to it by a Certification Authority. Once it has a unique key of its own, you can establish a secure connection with every other application that can "speak" the SSL protocol.
