You can use SSL to encrypt all the information exchanged for some selected web
pages.
To enable it you nedd a certificate for your Web server, and for Windows NT you
can
get it by an external CA (like Verisign), or you can generate it internally to
your organization
using a free Windows NT tool name MS Certificate Server, which is part of NT
Option Pack.
