How do I know when my shopping session is secure?

First it is important to know that your session is only secure when you are entering in personal information. So normally all internet browsing is not secure.

To find out if you are on a secure web page, look on top where it displays the URL location. If you are on a secure page it will start out with https://. If the location does not appear on your screen you can probably enable your browser to display the location. Most browsers will give you a visual clue to whether the page you are viewing is secure or not. For example:

If you are running Netscape Navigator 2.0 or 3.0 right now, you'll see a
little "broken key" icon in the lower-left corner of your Netscape screen.

When you go to the secure ordering page, it will turn into a "good (solid) key" icon on a blue background, indicating that a secure link has been established. This will only occur when you are asked to enter personal information

If you're using Internet Explorer or Netscape Communicator, then you'll see Padlock icon in the lower-right, when you enter the secure site. This will only occur when you are asked to enter personal information

In short:
Netscape Navigator:
- a blue line underneath the Netscape logo
- and a solid key on the left bottom page.
- if the location is displayed it will start out with https://...

Internet Explorer or Netscape Communicator:
- an additional lock on the right bottom corner.
- if the location is displayed it will start out with https://...

A similiar process occurs on-line, except that your information is encrypted and then sent over the internet to the institution.
