When you visit a site, check for their security certificates. Some sites use security certificates from proven and trustee companies such as VeriSign. Usually these sites put the logo of VeriSign and the bottom of the site, where you can click and it will redirect you to a page at the VeriSign official website and give you detailed information about the sites security level.\n\nThese sites are pretty much safe, as for the others, all you need to do is watch yourself.

A secure site will have a "high assurance" certificate from a recognized root provider. If your browser goes right into SSL without sating something like "ubnown or unverifiable certificate provider" then you know that the provider is a recognized root authority (such as Verisign, Comodo. etc.). Examining the certificate will provide more information.\n\n"High Assurance" means that the issuing authority performed some substantial checks about the applicant before issuing a certificate. This usually includes verifying the corporate existence and incorporation documents and verifying the applicant's identity. Some checks are very rigorous. Some even require a Dun&Bradstreet number,\n\n"Low Assurance" certificates are often issued after verifying that the applicant is the listed contact on the domain registration. Though the domain exists, the other information such as the company name and business are not checked.\n\nOften a suspect site will have a big notice about their security and have a bunch of official looking graphics but when the link is followed, it does not actually use SSL. Both FireFox and IE display a little 'padlock' in the status bar when in a secure page. FireFox also colors the addressbar yellow - this is pretty easy to spot.\n\nWord to the wise - look for the padlock, double-click it, and read the information.

If you have access to the server you are better off with .htaccess and .htpassord Search for them at Google. If not use the following.\n\nHosted Password Protection Cgi Scripts http://www.cgispy.com/ , http://www.sitegadgets.com/ , http://www.bravenet.com/ OR use these tools to make a javascript password protection script for your pages http://www.htmlbasix.com/passwordprotect.shtml , http://javascript.internet.com/passwords/login-coder.html , http://www.searchbliss.com/webmaster_tools/password.htm
