It is not only liability of users to take care of their account information but is also responsibility to social networking websites to provide a secure environment to its users.

The certificate is issued to company Agryd Softech Pvt. Ltd., Jodhpur, Rajasthan and is issued by GeoTrust Inc. This certificate is not only helpful to existing users to surf website in a secured environment but is also beneficial to gain trust of visitors.

How to identify a SSL certified secured website?

This indicates that you are communicating with website in a secured environment as the website is SSL certified. You can rest assured that all the information you send over to website remains private and confidential. It is to note that the urls of all SSL certified websites starts with “HTTPS”. 

Besides, SSL encryption, this most popular Indian social networking website has provision of captcha verification at the time of registration. This captcha verification is a type of test to verify the authenticity of a human being registering the website and not the computer program trying to fool the system.
