noDEMonoids.com is now officially SSL-protected! Comodo PositiveSSL Certificate installed on our server to provide web site, member, and purchase data security.
An SSL certificate is a digital certificate that authenticates a website's identity and enables an encrypted connection. SSL stands for Secure Sockets Layer, a security protocol that creates an encrypted link between a web server and a web browser.
How to tell if a site has an SSL certificate
The easiest way to see if a site has an SSL certificate is by looking at the address bar in your browser:
-
If the URL begins with HTTPS instead of HTTP, that means the site is secured using an SSL certificate.
-
Secure sites show a closed padlock emblem, which you can click on to see security details – the most trustworthy sites will have green padlocks or address bars.
-
Browsers also show warning signs when a connection is not secure — such as a red padlock, a padlock which is not closed, a line going through the website's address, or a warning triangle on top of the padlock emblem.
