Securely browse your Gmail
Ever looked at your address bar while reading your email in Gmail and noticed that the page wasn’t encrypted (”http” and not “https”)? Google sends you to a secure page to login, but by default sends you to an un-encrypted page to view and send emails. I’m not too sure why they do this, but there is a simple hack around it.
If you want to always browse your e-mail with high-grade encryption (AES-256 256 bit), a more secure encryption than most banks use, just change you Gmail bookmark to point to https://mail.google.com/mail/. You will be sent to a secure page to login, and once you are authenticated, you session will remain encrypted while you read/send mail.
