The only completely secure Https screen is a full certificate

I would like a confirmation on the certificate used in Firefox and other browsers. A web site like President choice financial https://www.txn.banking.pcfinancial.ca/a/authentication/preSignOn.ams which is https but is run by the site "unknown" as oppose to Ing direct which is https://secure.ingdirect.ca/InitialINGDirect.html?command=displayLogin&device=web&locale=en_CA and has a fully qualified certificate.
The PCfinancial shows up with a blue https URL and Ing direct shows up in Green. this clearly suggest that the Blue HTTPs is not as secure as the domain information is missing and therefore could be controled by another party? Please note references to wikipeadia (see https Secure) describes the blue certificate as a "common certificate"
Also note that other sites like twitter have a Green URL when visited. What are the security risks with a Blue URL or display with "which is run by unknown"

There should normally no problem with sites that still have a DV (Domain Validated) SSL certificate.<br />
Only websites that present an EV (Extended Validated) SSL certificate can be validated by the issuer of the certificate.

With both sites I only get a 3DES-EDE-CBC 168 bit connection and they can benefit from an update of there server software because they aren't supporting AES-256.

  • Safari will only load secure https pages

    Just encountered an issue today where safari will only load secure https pages.  Any page that doesn't begin with https gets the "safari can't connect to the server" error.  I can connect to all pages using firefox or chrome on the same system.  I have emptied cache and reset safari except for password info.  Still no luck.  Using Safari Version 5.1.7 (6534.57.2) on OSX 10.6.8

  • Is there a way to import your entire music library from an iPod classic into iTunes on  my PC?  PC was wiped out and my iPod is the only complete library copy I have.

    My PC hard drive was wiped out and I am rebuilding my Windows 7 system.  The only complete library I have of my music is located on my iPod classic.  Is there a way to import the library from my iPod into a  new iTunes library on my PC?  I was told if I connect my iPod to the PC, ITunes will try to sync with the iPod and wipe out the library on the iPod.

  • Why can I no longer use an image for my signature on forms?  The only option I have now is "use a certificate".  It was never like this until today.

    Hi,
    I had never heard of someone using the iPhone Number as the ID in the iMessages account in the Mac version.
    i.e without adding an Apple ID
    iMessages does allow iPhone numbers and mine lists mine.
    I would try this.
    Sign Out of the iMessages account and Quit Messages
    On the iPhone in Settings > Messages remove the Apple ID
    Set the iPhone to Airplane mode for a few minutes (to break with the  Server)
    On starting the phone up again check the iPhone Number  is ticked for iMessages.
    If it is add the Apple ID
    On the Mac restart Messages
    Add the Apple ID
    At this point you should get a pop up or two saying the iPhone is using the Number and Apple ID.
    Accept these and they get added to the Receive At list and Send From drop down.

    My software applications were unexpectedly quitting ( I Tunes, page, skype) so I downloaded Lion OS 7. It took 48 hours to download and 18 hours to install (and counting) so i turned it off and on several times. All i get now is a screen with the Apple Icon asking for my password with option to switch off or restart. tried both but it just brings me back to the same screen
    what do i do?
    thanks

    When you decided to upgrade because you were having serious problems, you jumped from the frying pan into the fire. If the problem was the system, then reinstalling the current system is the way to go. But you had several application quiting, some from Apple and some not. so the quitting was something affecting all of them, and of course the system could be the culprit, but the system is not the only possible culprit. Replacing the system when it was not the problem only buries the problem under a whole new pile of problems.
    Before reinstalling a system you need to make your Mac as trouble free as possible and back up as much as you can. There is a wide variety of problems that can affect many applications. Here is a short list:
    Font problems. Use Font Book to verify your fonts. Delete or disable bad fonts.
    Disk, permission, or cache corruption.
    Incompatible Startup Items, Login Items, interface modifications or menu extras.
    Corrupted preferences other than those of the affected applications. Check preferences system-wide using the freeware applications Preferential Treatment or AppleJack
    Insufficient RAM or lack of free disk space.
    Programming errors. Bugs in application code are not uncommon. For third-party applications, check the vendor's Web site for updates to the application, reports of known bugs, or for information on how to contact the vendor for support. A bad program might be grabbing up too much RAM and causing the other applications to fail as well.
    Corrupted application. Check the logs to see where the crash occurred.
    Other software problems or conflicts.
    Corrupted Mac OS X installation. Perform an Archive and Install of your current Mac OS X.
    Hardware problems. Run the Apple Hardware Test that came with your Mac.
    Try to discover the culprit:
    Open Console, located in the Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities folder.
    Check the Console and System logs for messages that may be related to the problem.
    To open these logs, in Console choose File > Open, then choose:
    Open Console Log and Open System Log
    Messages in these logs are time stamped when the message was logged.
    Scroll the log windows to the approximate time when the problem occurred.
    Details of the messages may provide additional clues you use in troubleshooting.
    Do not post an entire log to a forum. Post only the messages referring to the function or application causing a problem.
    AppleJack is a free program you run in 'Single User Mode.' Install it. When you want to run it, press Command s until you get a black screen with text. Type 'applejack' and run the repairs.

  • I have an iPhone 3, the only thing on my screen is the apple logo. i have plugged it into iTunes and have updaded and synced my phone. still nothing on the screen

    I have an iPhone 3gs... The only thing that will come up on my screen is the apple logo with the little loading circle thingy... I have plugged it into iTunes and it updated and synced with no problems but still nothing on the screen...
    PLEASE HELP!!!!

    iPhones that use the ARM chips (2g + 3g) are VERY slow to boot. Sometimes in excess of 1 minute 30 seconds (personal experiece). Assuming the device is not JB or has anything wanted on it, such as photos, do a DFU Restore. To cut it short, it basically forces itunes to give it the latest ios (4.something I think). Otherwise, personally I would wait

  • HT4085 The only place where my screen doesn't rotate is while viewing my email.  It is fine with Safari etc.

    I can not view my email in portrait view only landscape.  This just started and I don't know how to fix the problem.

    Try closing the Mail app via the taskbar and see if it rotates when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • TS1591 I was trying to download the update.  now the only thing on my screen is the Connect to Itunes screen.  I have connected to itunes but nothing is happening. ANy suggestions

  • Is the only way to use Encore to have full creative Cloud?

    I want to start using Encore, because I need a BluRay Authoring Software, I do have CS6 but only Creative suite without Premiere, is there another was to buy Encore instead of have fully access to Creative Cloud?

    You'll spend much less to do it through the cloud.
    I do not see an upgrade from Design to Master, and that makes any CS6 purchase option expensive.
    Upgrade to cloud, about $30 per month for year for "everything." Or PR only for $30 per month, month by month. Or PR only for a year, $20 per month.

  • Securing by screen within the contract

    Hi,
    Our business area is wanting to secure the changing of a contract by screen  (tab) - mainly the resubmission screen.  They want everyone to be able to create and maintain resubmission reasons but they do not want them to be able to create or change anything else in the contract.  The only thing that I can think of is some sort of custom security object assigned to each screen.  Has anyone else attempted to do this level of security?
    V Stewart

    Not sure how a screen variant would have anything to do with what I am looking for.  Please explain further.  Within transaction RE80 or RECN, there are mulitple tabs but you must have Change access to ALL tabs in order to maintain any of them.  The only extra security object that they give you concerns maintaining the conditions.  Our business area wants everyone to be able to maintain the resubmissions but only select people can maintain the remainder of the items within the contract.

    HHi.  I'm unable to take and send pictures or videos from messaging.  Screen completely turns black and I'm kicked out of messaging

    Try a reset by pressing and holding the home and power buttons until the white Apple logo appears.

    Is this the only email account on the device? If not, are  you able to email pictures via other accounts?
    Are you able to send emails with pictures attached from the gmail account on a computer?
