To the felt one-millionth time: the Web was not sure, the Web is not sure, the Web will never be sure. Fact!
This Heartbleed gateway infinitely was found. Many still are open, come and will never be closed. Resume: you can, if you do online banking, or your credit card is online used, only hope that no bad boys this are watching/listening. You never can prevent them to do that!

Always heavily download apps for dummies which nobody knows what and where they call to. With the same "Smart" phone/Tablet online shopping until the rind cracks. Deposit the credit card and account information at Facebook, Receivean, Amazon, Paypal, and a dozen Mobile Payment services, etc,pp. And always well believe the industry that everything is safe.

Simply can laugh, laugh, laugh ...

I quite like the plain English explanation given by the XKCD cartoonist:

I think this is the worst attack that the cyber crime has shown this year. Last year also had a couple of attacks that left a lot of companies vulnerable and then this just hit us. I think online information is no longer safe that is why I always use my external hard disk to store my information.

As reported last days in several mass-journals US intelligence service NSA knew of this vulnerability since at least 2 years - means when a modification was made to OpenSSL, an encryption technology designed to ensure safe harbor for sensitive data traveling around the Web - and probably heavily used it for their own purposes.

I always use to see how securely configured a web-server is. Ex. if I test my CC provider, I can see it's rated A-
