HTTP OR HTTPS - DOES IT REALLY MATTER?<br />

NOT SECURE?<br />

SINCE WHEN AND WHAT<br />

DOES THAT MEAN?<br />

In 2018, Google Chrome users started to see this status showing<br />

in their address bar as Google began to show whether the site was<br />

HTTP or HTTPS (the S stands for secure).<br />

The warning shown refers to the lack of security for the connection to that<br />

page. It’s telling visitors that information sent and received to that page<br />

is unprotected and it could potentially be stolen, read, or modified by<br />

attackers, hackers, and entities with access to internet infrastructure, such<br />

as Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and governments.<br />

Now, would you prefer to deal with a website that is secure or not secure?<br />

The answer is obvious. More and more consumers are worried that their<br />

information may be exposed to bad people who want to scam them. When<br />

site visitors see this on your site, it could make them nervous.
