CMC website encryption

[Andy Smith]

Our website is now encrypted and has an address
“https://castlemountaineering.com

This is all you need to know, but for anyone interested, I
provide a little more information below.

Previously the address was
“https://castlemountaineering.com but without the s

The extra s stands for secure, and putting the s version in
a web browser meant that it looked for a digital certificate
of encryption and when it failed to find one, showed a
message saying it might be risky to continue (it wouldn’t
have been). To avoid this problem, and improve security for
users, the committee has decided to buy the relevant
certificate.
