You may have noticed that some websites address starts with http:// while others https://
https:// (with a symbol of a locked padlock in green or blue) indicates that the connection between your computer and the website is encrypted with virtually impossible to crack technology called SSL. SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a standard security technology for establishing an encrypted connection between a web server and web browser.
SSL certificates come at different levels and prices but even the most basic one makes a significant improvement to the security level of the connection. Price differences are more related to how the ownership of the website is verified and how much insurance is offered by a certificate provider. There are certificates which come with no particular website ownership verification and no insurance either.
