How secure is browsing the Web with Skweezer?
Short answer:
Browsing with Skweezer is very secure, as it supports 128-bit (strong) encryption for browsing secure Web sites.

Long answer:
Skweezer initiates an additional SSL connection to the remote content providers’ destination Web site (PayPal, for instance) in response to each secure SSL-encrypted request from the Skweezer user. Each link in the chain is encrypted. Another way you could view it is we’re “SSL’ing the SSL”.

Furthermore, information that is intended to be private, stays private. We do not store passwords or personal information other than what we ask to establish your account. Even then, we do not share that with third parties. We take privacy very seriously.

It’s worth noting that Greenlight Wireless has purchased the most comprehensive public key infrastructure certificate (PKI) available. It’s called a Verisign Class 3 Public Primary.

Actually I would like to have a screen formatted for my mobile, but my bank isn't that sophisticated yet.
