The industry standard for encryption technology, SSL, is compatible with Netscape, Internet Explorer, AOL, Web TV and most other browsers. Secure data transmissions are identified by the appearance of a security notice when you enter a secure page. Also, a secure icon will appear on your browser. For Netscape it is a key icon, for Microsoft Internet Explorer it is a lock icon. Secure web pages can also be identified by their URL, which begin with "https://", unlike standard pages begin with "http://".
