谷歌最新數據顯示 網絡的安全性正在提高
While reports of major hackings continue to make news, the sites you visit are safer than ever before.
雖然關於網絡黑客的報道仍舊屢見不鮮，但事實是你所訪問網站的安全係數比以往任何時候都高。In fact, the web is more secure than it was just a year ago.
其實僅和一年前相比，互聯網的安全性就提高了不少。That's because more websites are finally using encrypted connections, according to Google's transparency report.
按照谷歌在透明度報告中的說法，網絡安全的提高得益於使用加密連接的網站越來越多。
More than half of the pages loaded by Google's Chrome desktop browser on the web now use HTTPS -- and two-thirds of total time is spent on encrypted websites.
Chrome（谷歌瀏覽器）桌面用戶所瀏覽的頁面中，逾半數通過HTTPS加密協議傳輸；瀏覽HTTPS網頁佔到用戶上網時長的三分之二。
Sites that use HTTPS -- compared to HTTP -- let you securely pay for things online, check your bank account, and view and share sensitive data.
同HTTP相比，使用HTTPS安全傳輸的站點更能保證用戶在線支付、銀行賬戶查詢、敏感信息瀏覽和分享的安全。To do so, it encrypts communications between the browser and web server, so information is protected against hackers or eavesdroppers.
因爲在使用加密傳輸協議後，網站服務商和上網用戶之間的對話將被加密，防止電腦黑客和網絡竊聽者的入侵。You can tell when you're on a secure website by seeing "HTTPS" and a padlock in your browser's address bar.
你可以通過查看瀏覽器地址欄中是否有HTTPS字樣以及掛鎖標誌，來判斷所瀏覽的網頁是否屬於安全網站。"A web with ubiquitous HTTPS is not the distant future," Chrome security engineers wrote in a blog post last Thursday. "It's happening now, with secure browsing becoming standard for users of Chrome."
谷歌網絡安全工程師上週四在博客中寫到：“網站全部使用HTTPS加密傳輸協定的目標並非遙不可及。其實目前HTTPS協定的使用正在普及，安全瀏覽已成爲Chrome用戶的標配。”Google began collecting Chrome browsing data in April 2015 when it discovered less than half of pages people viewed were secure.
2015年4月，谷歌發現網民所瀏覽的網頁中安全網頁不到一半，於是開始收集Chrome中的瀏覽數據。Meanwhile, about 60% of web traffic using Chrome on a Mac currently accesses encrypted sites, compared to 51% on Windows and 43% on Android.
數據顯示，使用Chrome瀏覽器的蘋果電腦上，有60%的客訪量來自於加密的網頁，相比之下，Windows和Android用戶的比例要小一些，分別爲51%和43%。But there's still a long way to go: Of the top 100 non-Google websites globally, just 34 have HTTPS by default.
即便如此，網絡安全仍然是任重而道遠。在全球前100的非谷歌網站中只有34個網站默認使用HTTPS加密傳輸協定。Eventually Google hopes it will become standard. To achieve ubiquity, the company will start naming and shaming sites that don't use it.
谷歌的最終目的是將HTTPS加密傳輸協定變成行業標準。爲了達到這一目的，谷歌將列出那些未加密網站的名稱，對其施加壓力。
