Trump named Rudy Giuliani to be in charge of the nation's cybersecurity, but he runs a website that is not secure and is now down. LOL America is so screwed.

^ Doesn't know what they're talking about.

You don't allow https. You either implement https with a certificate or not. Many simple sites not requiring user interaction don't need or use https.

I think they know what they are talking about, but go ahead and trust Rudy all you want! LOLZ

--------------------------

But you don’t need to try to hack the site to see how it fails the smell test: Just visiting shows how poorly set up it is. As it uses an expired SSL certificate, visitors cannot be certain the identity of Giuliani’s site is valid and can be trusted. And because it doesn’t force users to use the secure HTTPS protocol, communication is insecure by default. Good luck going to the site right now, though: the page is currently down.

Also, it uses fucking Adobe Flash, a well-known (if ubiquitous) security disaster.
