Sight Not Secure!!
« on: April 13, 2018, 06:58:49 AM »
When I come onto the SAAC forum, it says. "Sight Not Secure" in the web bar and continues saying that even after I am logged on and the entire time I'm on here. This just started recently. Anyone else have this happening?

Actually when I type in saacforum.com in the browser, or whatever that’s called up top,  It says “site not secure”. And it stays that way the whole time I’m on the website, it doesn’t matter what thread I am on.

 And I have yet to be able to post photos. In the past I never had any problems up until now.

In general computerworks might consider to reconfigure the site to https://   As of 2018 most forums move or have moved to that prefix. We had reconfigured our own forum as well. 
Otherwise the http://www.saacforum.com website is typically displayes as not secure.

If you navigate to https://www.saacforum.com you will get a security warning because this forum is not set up as a secure site. Try typing just "saacforum.com" into your browser and you should not see the warning.
And as it has been pointed out before, this site is not secure and it is visible by anyone in the world with an Internet connection, so understand that whatever information that you share here can be seen by anyone including your email, date of birth, gender, location, etc. if you choose to include them in your profile.

It helps  to read wikipedia. It is rather a trend to change to htttps://

Server setup

To prepare a web server to accept HTTPS connections, the administrator must create a public key certificate for the web server. This certificate must be signed by a trusted certificate authority for the web browser to accept it without warning. The authority certifies that the certificate holder is the operator of the web server that presents it. Web browsers are generally distributed with a list of signing certificates of major certificate authorities so that they can verify certificates signed by them.
Acquiring certificates
Let's Encrypt, launched in April 2016,[21] provides free and automated SSL/TLS certificates to websites.[22] According to the Electronic Frontier Foundation, "Let's Encrypt" will make switching from HTTP to HTTPS "as easy as issuing one command, or clicking one button."[23]. The majority of web hosts and cloud providers already leverage Let's Encrypt, providing free certificates to their customers.
