Is Jabber.org secure?
The Jabber.org service uses industry-standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) to encrypt your connection to the server. Our security certificate is issued by the XMPP Intermediate Certification Authority with the backing of StartCom, a widely-recognized CA that is bundled with Mozilla FireFox, Apple MacOS X, numerous Linux distributions, and many modern IM clients. Furthermore, the Jabber.org IM service is hosted in a secure data center by USSHC, with strict physical security and up-to-date security patches on a Debian GNU/Linux operating system. The Jabber.org administrators take your privacy and security very seriously — please read the Service Policy for full details about our security measures. If you have any questions about security, please ask in the jabber@conference.jabber.org room (see the Get Help page for details).
