I have an online application that all of its pages use HTTPS. I have 3 questions:

  1. Does Google index HTTPS pages?

  2. I have a password protected single ASP.NET page (using HTTPS). Password protection is basically achieved by a Session object. When the correct password is entered, it hides the login panel and displays the same page which has a sensitive data. Is this page indexed by Google?

  3. I have a Secure folder that I implemented Forms Authentication. All pages in folder use HTTPS as well. Are the pages in this folder indexed by Google?

Thank you for your help,

    If the pages are password protected, and you’ve implemented that correctly, there’s no way the Googlebot would be able to access them. As with any other web client, they’d still need the password, and Googlebot, as far as I know, doesn’t make any attempts at authorization.

    Also, to be clear, HTTPS provides encryption, not authentication. This means that the data is encrypted between your server and the client, which ensures that nobody can catch the data midstream and view or modify it. However, unless you protect access to that data with an authentication mechanism, anyone can still look at it.
