IT staff, organization leaders, and the average citizen have all expressed levels of concern over the FCC about-face in regard to ISP privacy. Here’s what the security experts say.
Up to Us to Protect Our Own Privacy
"It's now up to all of us as consumers and businesses to protect our own privacy. Enterprises and SMBs should take steps to encrypt their websites with HTTPS. Doing so will hide any content transferred between the business' app or website and the end user's device. It will not hide the domain of the website visited, but everything else is secure. This is especially important on any web page that asks for user input. HTTPS certification is now cheaper and easier than ever thanks to certificate authorities like CertBot and LetsEncrypt."
