In the Safari menu bar this site is listed as "Not Secure". Is that accurate and if so why not?

The whole site doesn't seem to have an SSL certificate, so not https:// I notice that if you want to purchase PowerCADD, it takes you off to a different URL ecommerce site to provide secure ordering.

I don't think it costs all that much to get an SSL certificate, and I think Google search engine "likes" sites better if they do. It would obviously be a good idea to for proper practices anyway.

We may in the future add SSL, but our priority was to get the forum back online. Generally there isn’t a need for all sites to be secured with https, most of the Engineered Software site is not secured with https with the exception of the Engineered Software store, which is.
