    How to ensure secure online transactions in Internet Explorer 9

    Hello friends I mostly make full use of the internet not just to get access to websites, but I do access the dynamic websites as well through which I mostly carry out the online transaction like payment and purchase of any goods. Now since there is always a danger when people use the internet to carry out the transaction, so I would want to know some of the ways such that we can have a secure transaction with the Internet Explorer 9 as I am about to make use of it.

    Mostly each and every thing that we access comes with a guarantee that the website is from the trusted source and that whatever suspicious that we access using the browser the Internet Explorer has got some of the features that enables us to know that we are doing something wrong and restricts us from accessing that. If you are surely looking to make use of the Internet Explorer than O do suggest that to make use of the same as quickly as possible since it is a really nice browser that provides ample security for us.

    To ensure whether we are accessing the safe website or not, what I would like to recommend is that you should always look for web address that flashes when you type any website name and press enter, you should always make sure that the website address always starts with the prefix HTTPS. The "S" is significant for the reason that it means that an encryption protocol called Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is being used to connect to a web server. The prefix HTTP without the "S" suggest that encryption isn't being used, and the transaction is a lesser amount of protected.

    If you are using the Internet Explorer than the best way so as to know whether or not you are accessing a secure connection is by having a look on the right side of the Address bar for a lock icon. You should click onto that lock icon to examine the certificate used to encrypt the webpage. The certificate identify the certification right that is used by it, the dates that it's legitimate, and the server you're communicating with. If something looks incorrect in the information, contact the issuer to verify the certificate's authority.

    The Internet Explorer 9 has got an interesting feature that enables us to know whether we are accessing a right kind of a secure website or not with the help of a color property that comes on the address bar that decides whether the website is secure or not. If the address bar comes up with the Red Color on it then the website is not trusted and there is an error in the certificate as well. If it suggest yellow then it means that the validity of the certificate or certification authority that issued it cannot be confirmed. If everything is perfect than it will show the address bar in white color.

    The Internet Explorer 9 has got some kind of a feature called the SmarScreen Filter which when turned on can help filtering the malicious content that is there on the untrusted websites. On detecting a malicious Web site, Internet Explorer will block 9 in its entirety. You can also make selective blockade of malware or phishing attacks from legitimate Web sites, rejecting only malicious pages without affecting the rest of the site. SmartScreen filter also works with the Download Manager to help protect against malicious downloads. Hazardous discharges are blocked immediately.

    If while making use of the Internet Explorer 9 if you come across that the address bar is in green color than it means that the website that you are trying to access has as extended validation. This suggets that communication among your browser and website is encrypted plus the certification right have established the website is owned or operated via a company that is officially structured under the control shown in the certificate and on the Security Status bar. So I think that the Internet Explorer 9 has got some of the best feature that can help us in distinguishing the good and the bad sites.
