Security of the website and TLS

I just noticed that this website doesn’t support TLS even though it’s hosted on CloudFlare. I’m not a big fan of them but they provide really basic stuff that every modern website needs to have such as TLS support, HSTS and DNSEC. And of course there’s Let’s Encrypt that provides free automated certificates.

Not only all this is important security fixed but also they significantly improves the privacy of the users.

Can we pretty please have HSTS and DNSEC enabled? :slight_smile:

I don’t know much about security in general (as I’m sure most campers don’t), but since this is a learning platform, could you explain the benefits of TLS and the possible dangers of not having it implemented here?

Do you mean the FCC forum?

I’ve checked the certificate and it’s using TLS + verified by Let’s Encrypt. But it uses RSA algorithm which isn’t very secure afaik.

Of course, one could only access personal info here, but not CC details or Bank account information…
