Welcome to SBR. You'll end up seeing that all books are basically the same in regards to this situation, but, what is it exactly that you consider a non-secure log in and pass?

thanks. they don't have the https and the lock icon so your info can be easily stolen. i think wsex was the only site that did, but i read they have some problems lately, so i didn't join.

Most of the books don't have that, but, most of them have the highest available technology in regards to security including encoding of the site as well as firewalls. There's still the chance but not as big as it may appear.

First off, Welcome to the SBR forum

Books have the tight security for the funding transactions, however I know what your saying sir. A lot of Euro books have the security features you are seeking.

It is hard to look for the books that uses the feature that you are looking for. It is like like fiding a needle in a hay stack. But most books (if not all) uses an encryption system to protect your information.

Ask the CS of the book that you are interested in or check all the references that they have regarding their security.

Good Luck!
