How secure are online, Electronic Shopping Carts?

If your shopping cart URL begins with “https://” then it is a secure page with the padlock icon displayed in your browser’s status bar (the “s” after “http” means you are on a “secure” page). 128-bit strong encryption is also the norm for web hosts and merchant account providers. We also recommend going with a web host that can provide a personal SSL certificate (see below) for your web site as an additional means of security if you intend on processing online credit card orders.
