If the symbol reads "Info," it typically means that the site is not encrypted but may still be safe for browsing. However, it's essential to exercise caution and avoid entering sensitive information on such sites.

On the other hand, if the security status symbol displays "Not secure," it's a clear warning sign. This indicates that the site is not encrypted and your data may be vulnerable to interception or theft. It's best to avoid transacting or sharing personal details on such unsecured sites.

The security status symbol can take on several forms, each conveying a different level of safety. The most reassuring symbol is the "Default (Secure)" indicator, which signifies that the site is encrypted and protected.
