Frequently asked questions

HTTPS is about 3 things, trust, security and privacy.

Trust

HTTPS helps prevent intruders from tampering with communication between your sites and your users' browsers. Intruders include both intentionally malicious attackers and legitimate but intrusive companies, such as ISPs that inject ads into pages.

Security

This secure protocol also verifies the authenticity of the BOM website, preventing impersonation by malicious entities. Major browsers, including Chrome, label non-HTTPS sites as “Not secure”, which can deter users from accessing the BOM's services.

Privacy

HTTPS encrypts data exchanged between users and the website, ensuring privacy.

There sure is a BETA site and a REG site that use HTTPS, but it's not the same as the main site. Google will never rank the BETA site, so the vast majority of users will never see it.

Lets Encrypt offers TLS certificates for free.
