Not secure?

(1/2) > >>

PeteC:
Just wondering if it says  "Not secure" on the bar in front of  the web address on anyone else's computer?

Pat B:
It on my computer but I've never had a problem that I know of. I don't know enough about computers to say what it means.

PeteC:
Thanks Pat

upstatenybowyer:
Yeah, mine says that too, but I've been on this site for a few years and never had a problem.

NimRand:
It's because the website is not Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS).

From WIKI:
The principal motivation for HTTPS is authentication of the accessed website and protection of the privacy and integrity of the exchanged data while in transit. It protects against man-in-the-middle attacks.
