The invention provides a method and system for securing certain highly sensitive financial and other data contained in transmissions over a public network, such as the World Wide Web, linking a web server computer to a remote client computer. By determining a desired (usually strong) specific standard of encryption for all sensitive communications between web server and client, and "pushing" the capability to encrypt to such standard to the client by automatically downloading from web server to the client, and executing within the client's web browser, software objects to perfom encryption/decryption tasks pursuant to the chosen standard, strong encryption is readily assured even if the client did not originally have such strong encryption capabilities. The system may also be configured for optimal conformity with export laws regarding strong encryption.
