[LUG] Security - HTTPS

 

Just a coincidence after reading about the problems with OPENSSH 
etc.

I recently asked about using a cloud server and was advised to try
owncloud. I have set this up and am playing with it to learn how it all
works.

Today I noticed a warning message that I am using HTTP and not HTTPS
for this and was told that it was not a good idea. I have my own website
which I am using for this, but have never thought about HTTPS (sorry
Bad Apple).

I have had a look around Google but have finished up more confused. Can
anyone point me in the right direction please? Is this something that I
can sort out for myself of must I ask my service provider? Can it be
set up per folder or only for the whole site? Lots of questions, any
help gratefully received.

Thanks,

Neil
