Is it possible to have an https:// version of http://forums.iqfeed.net?

With the current version, usernames and passwords and content are sent in the clear.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention!!

We are in the planning stages of a project to update the iqfeed.net website and that project would also address this.

However, given the security concerns of this issue, we are investigating if a short-term fix is viable to address this before the long term project is completed.

Please also keep in mind are primary driver right now is to get our data servers migrated to their new location in Chicago!

I don't mind "necro"-ing a thread for an issue as important as this one. I love the product but frankly, it's a bit of an embarassment that both the developer portal and this forum pass sensitive secrets in the clear over the Internet. You guys are bulldogs about protecting the exchange data agreements from secondary clients -- lets see some of that focus and tenacity applied toward your customers' security, please.

Glad the data service migration to Chicago was a success! I can tell it was by the low ping latency I get from my colo server hosted in that area ;) Was there any big announcement about this once it was accomplished? I don't remember seeing anything. Edit: Ah, searching throught the forum I found the 2021 post explaining the email about firewall rules when this happened.

There are plans to move this forum to a more modern form, which will address these concerns. I don't have an ETA though.

Ok, Thank you.

The redirect does work from the regular http:// still embedded in the emails. Perhaps the email template may need an adjustment as well.
