A heartbleed bug is one of the biggest and serious threats on the Internet. It&#8217;s a vulnerability in popular OpenSSL cryptographic library. OpenSSL is a widely used execution of suite of security protocols known as Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) that helps in encrypting the traffic when surfing the Web. Each time when you send and receive data online or do online an transaction, there will be chance of sending your data through an SSL. You can check if your sending your data through SSL by a \u201chttps\u201d with a green indicator or a lock icon in address bar. Some VPNs (Virtual Private Networks) and email, chat programs will also use the systems that are tied to OpenSSL for transmitting communications and data in a secured way. Heartbleed bug is terrifying and unique because it allows anyone to access a computer system memory and read all data (including confidential data), which is protected by vulnerable version of OpenSSL software. &nbsp; What effect it causes? As per, Sam Kottler, a software engineer has worked on numerous open source security and systems management projects (and once worked at Digg), \u201cAnything that you wouldn\u2019t want an \u2018Internet bad guy\u2019 to [&hellip;]","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/4goodhosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/heartbleed-hacker-bug.jpg","thumbnail_width":660,"thumbnail_height":341}
