Solution- Surveillance Profiling your identity and actions
Connecting to a website securely could mean several things: the connection between your computer and the website's server is encrypted; there are no leaks of information about the current session to third parties; you do not expose yourself to malware infection by visiting a compromised website. The solutions for each security property are different but they all contribute to creating a secure session with a requested website. Please review the Better Browsing guide from RiseUp for details on how to browse with greater security in Firefox or Chrome (in general, these are the recommended browsers when discussing security).
You may also wish to use an anonymity network or a VPN to browser the desired website as explained in the I want to be anonymous when browsing the web section.
In all cases, please ensure that your computer's operating system is up-to-date, that you are using the latest version of your browser and you running anti-malware protection.
