How to make web application more secure with "https"?

I heard that, https means the webpage is well secured. I am creating a j2ee application. I want my web app have such secured login page. How to do that?

    At the time of hosting your site they provide an option to buy the secure shell access . But its not required every time if you site dont deal with payment or banking kind of thing ....
    So I would suggest you tat better you check that you need it or not ?

    I would highly recommend it. Its not only banking related application specific , but even if someone login to your site he should have secure login otherwise anyone can see your username and password over the wire.
    You can create your own self signed certificate if the application is not hosted as commercial site.

    You can use utility like openssl. You can mention the SSL key and certificate in the httpd.conf file and restart the apache server . It should start with https mode.

    You need a Security Certificate from your Domain Registrar so that you can use it with your Domian and Hosting to make it safe mate...
