Transmitting passwords over HTTP is a potential security threat. HTTP transmissions can be viewed or compromised by malicious users. To improve security when using login controls, you should use HTTPS protocol with secure sockets layer (SSL) encryption to ensure that the user's password cannot be read during postback. For more information, see Securing Login Controls.
This property cannot be set by themes or style sheet themes. For more information, see ThemeableAttribute and ASP.NET Themes and Skins.
