How Safe is JOOMLA front end??

Hi Guys,

Off late I have been working on a few joomla websites for family and friends. Usually I do all the backend work and if my clients need to edit anything they login via the front end. Just wondering how safe is joomla front end from hacking, sniffing etc. I do know it is all in HTTP so this is what makes me worried.
If someone could explain to me, if there is a way to setup a secure way for joomla front end login or could make me believe that the front end login is secure already it would be great.

PS: I am only a BEGINNER level joomla programmer so please do explain in detail.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the input.
I never actually got to try these solutions, as I got busy with other things. Web Development is just my hobby so one day I will definitely look into these solutions. Awarding points for your effort.
