Government Internet Security Measures: Safeguarding User Data and Privacy

Governments implement various security measures to protect user data on their websites. The use of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) creates a secure link between the user's browser and government servers, often indicated by a padlock icon. 128-bit encryption ensures data confidentiality. Inactive computers automatically log off, while up-to-date antivirus software and firewalls prevent unauthorized access. Data sharing involves encryption, and biometrics are utilized for identity verification. Despite these measures, concerns about taxpayer costs and privacy remain.
