VeriSign vulnerability assessments help to reduce the cost and complexity of vulnerability management with automated scans, actionable reports, and a cloud-based architecture that requires no software installation or maintenance. This solution is a good starting point for organizations that want to quickly assess the extent of their website vulnerabilities.

The recent survey says people are not very conscious on online frauds

Surveys are a great window into people’s minds, especially when they can illuminate contrasting, and even contradictory, behaviors in the same group. Results from the Symantec Online Internet Safety Survey have done just that. The most compelling finding – that respondents frequently proceed with online transactions they know might be insecure – inspired me to ask not just, “What are they thinking?” but “What are they thinking?!?”
The survey’s focus must be on many people’s minds, as we’ve had an extraordinary response – 301 people in just a few days! My initial impressions of the results are below. Feel free to share your comments and questions here.

Findings

Risky behavior remains common despite respondents knowing better: What struck me the most was that in many cases, respondents continued online transactions even when those transactions lacked security cues respondents knew should be there. For example, 80 percent of respondents knew to look for the padlock icon signifying Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption, but only 55 percent said they would abort a transaction if they didn’t see it. Similarly, 81 percent knew to look for secure Internet connections (HTTPS) but only 56 percent got spooked by secure URLs not matching certificate domains (not an exact correlation, I know, but related). These are differences of nearly 30 points! What is driving this reckless behavior?

An equally notable figure is tha...

Twitter Turns on SSL Encryption for Some Users

posted by ClickSSL 129 days ago under ev ssl, encryption, ssl certificate, ssl encryption, https
Twitter is slowly turning on automatic encryption on its website, a move following other major providers of web-based services to thwart account hijacking over wireless networks.

Twitter has offered an option for users to turn on SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption, but said on Tuesday that it will turn the feature on by default for some users. It did not indicate when the option would be turned on by default for all users.
SSL encryption, indicted by "https" in the URL bar and sometimes a padlock in the browser window, is an encryption protocol used to protect communication between a client and a server. It is important to use because unencrypted information passed over wireless networks can be intercepted.

Many websites encrypt a person's login and password but will stop encrypting further data that is transmitted. A reason for not using SSL throughout a session is that it can occasionally slow interaction between the user and website.

Last year, a freelance web application Firesheep released, an add-on for Firefox that snatches cookies transmitted on unencrypted networks. Web sites drop a cookie, or a small data file, into a person's Web browser while they are logged into a session. Cookies are also used to "remember" people and keep them logged into the website.

Firesheep used an technique that was well-known but made it very easy for novice hackers to grab cookies and immediately log into a website as another pe...

SGC SSL Certificate: Enabling Strong Encryption for the Most Site Visitors

posted by ClickSSL 170 days ago under sgc certificate, sgc ssl, sgc ssl certificate, sgc-enabled ssl certificate, ssl certificate
If your reputation in the online community depends upon the stringent safeguarding of information processed through your Web site, then your Internet security solution should include the strongest encryption available to each Web site visitor.

Encryption is the process whereby data is transformed into a code that will be indecipherable to an unauthorized viewer. The stronger the encryption, the more difficult it is for someone to eavesdrop on your online communications. This is especially important if you accept any kind of online payments, connect to a bank or brokerage account, transmit health records, must meet a governmental or other regulatory organization’s privacy and security standards, or process any kind of potentially sensitive information.

Industry experts recommend a minimum of 128-bit encryption be used for all secure online sessions. Some Web server-client browser configurations enable sessions with up to 256-bit encryption protection, the strongest level of encryption commercially available today.

The strength of encryption enabled for any session depends on what your customer’s browser and operating system support, as well as what your host server systems will support. If your consumer’s browser or operating system does not support higher levels of encryption, the session will default down to the highest level that it can support.
