Basic Tips On Securing Your Online Shopping and Transactions !
Well, You all must have done atleast a single online transaction and must have worried about the security of your transaction.
How secure is your transaction ?
There are several points to be mentioned on this topic.
The first one is as below,
1] Secured internet connection
*How to know if your internet connection is secured ?
  • Many web sites use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to encrypt the credit card information that you send over the Internet. These sites usually inform you they are using this technology. Or, check if the web address on the page that asks for your credit card information begins with “https:” instead of “http:”; if so, this technology is in place.
  • A different security technology, which works on different principles, is Secure Electronic Transaction, or SET, technology. SET or SSL technology are designed to make your connection secure.
*The other point is of your Browser security :
  • Your browser displays the icon of a locked padlock at the bottom of the screen (Netscape Navigator; – versions 4.0 and higher);
  • You see the icon of an unbroken key at the bottom of the screen (earlier versions of Netscape Navigator;
  • You see the icon of a lock on the status bar.
These were the basic steps to follow in your online transactions but there are many others which you must follow.
