Are You Secure? And . . . Is Your Website Secure?

Let's come together to discuss what it means for your website and website server to be secure.

- For web creators, what tools do you use to keep your websites secure?
- As a website visitor, how do you detect that you are safe when going to a given website?

One service that exists for checking out websites, domains, ecommerce shops, etc., is Scam Detector, which offers to help with ". . . advising readers if these are legit, safe, and trustworthy . . . " But what do we know about this service itself? How does it test sites and what do its ratings signify? We tested Scam-Detector.com using Scam Detector, and . . . guess what we found? (Come to the Meetup to find out!)

We will also discuss the safety -- or lack thereof -- of shared web hosting.

Please come prepared to share your security-related questions -- as well as answers to common security issues.
