A computer program product is provided as a system and associated method for
use
with a web browser and an Internet, to improve the access security to a secure
web site and to protect the user from undesirable hacking. The system presents
a novel, secure, implicit log-off procedure in addition to the conventional express
log-off and cookie termination. The implicit log-off procedure reduces the risks
resulting from transiting to an insecure site while remaining logged onto a secure
site. The system is comprised of a secured transaction protection module implemented
on a business server that includes a security/identification module and a local
database; and a notification module which is implemented on the user's browser.
The system tracks the user's access state to the server, and issues a termination
command shortly as soon as the notification module detects migration to another
site or to an insecure page on the same site.
