Re: Banks Abandoning SSL On Home Page Log-Ins
said by Steve  :said by mers2 :Security conscious customers should make it clear that security trumps speed. When customers don't know the difference between something that protects them from a danger, and something that has no effect on this whatsoever, I don't think they should get a vote. Steve It might not make a difference on the main page - but how is a customer to tell the actual login is SSL without having to log in first?

Considering the fact that the IT responsible for my local library is so paranoid that the entire website is SSL protected, I find this amusing. I'm paranoid that if I can't tell the info is secured before logging on to a financial institution I won't. Security conscious customers should make it clear that security trumps speed.
