Secure Network Access

Secure Network Access Needed in the Treasury website

I read in the press that internet hackers have attacked Kenya's Treasury website!
Secure Network Access should be installed in our Treasury website at once.

There are a number of steps needed to raise any site's security and reduce the incidence of website hacking.

Design

A website should be well designed with appropriate features that make it near impossible to copy, print or edit. No one should access even the source code except the webmaster who designed the site and installed encrypted code and password.

Hosting

A hosting server should always use an account with a dedicated IP address and not a shared IP address.

Secure SSL Certificate

This is a must have security feature. An SSL Certificate, or Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Certificate enables your website to be able to accept and transmit confidential information securely over an encrypted internet connection.

A website with secure hosting will always use "https" prefix in the address bar or the padlock icon on their browser when they submit personal information.

You need an SSL Certificate:

If you plan to have an online store or e-commerce site that accepts online orders and credit cards.
If you collect sensitive or personal information from your website visitors on your website through web forms.
If you allow partners, members, or others to log in to view information securely from your website.
If you want to help your customers ensure they are visiting your actual website, avoiding phishing scams or other counterfeiting of your website.
If you or your business desire to or are required to comply with privacy and security regulations.
