Introduction
Since early April, ITSC has started to install Hongkong Post digital certificates in some 30 major web servers and web-based applications under her jurisdiction. The whole process would be completed at the end of May.
Use of digital certificate is one of the measures that we have implemented to ensure the safe and secure flow of information; it helps to assure that you are not visiting a fraudulent CUHK website. Any information you submit via CUHK website is protected from prying eyes.
