标题: Http VS Https
(Dear customers, please read the following message properly and pay more attentions when you make the payment via online)
I never knew that is why I never pay online, now I know. If you already
Know, share with friends who not know.
It's all about keeping you secure, HTTP stands for HyperText Transport
Protocol, which is just a fancy way of saying it's a protocol (a
Language, in a manner of speaking) for information to be passed back and
Forth between web servers and clients.
The important thing is the letter S which makes the difference between
HTTP and HTTPS. The S (big surprise) stands for 'Secure'.
If you visit a website or webpage, and look at the address in the web
Browser, it will likely begin with the following:
http://. This means that the website is talking to your browser using the
Regular 'unsecure' language.
In other words, it is possible for someone to 'eavesdrop' on your
Computer's' conversation with the website. If you fill out a form on the
Website, someone might se e the information you send to that site.
This is why you never ever ever enter your credit card number in an http
Website!
But if the web address beg ins with https://, that basically means your
Computer is talking to the website in a secure code that no one can
Eavesdrop on.
You understand why this is so important, right?
If a website ever asks you to enter your credit card information, you
Should automatically look to see if the web address begins with https://.
If it doesn't, there's no way you're going to enter sensitive information
Like a credit card number!
SO it is safe to do that booking.... Pls remember when you buy any thing
Online make sure passing your information on the website showing https
REPEAT https....... . Don't do anything that is without the 's'
