When you want a really strong security on the web, it's a good idea to use SSL. SSL can be used to encrypt your end to end connection to the web server, but you will need a client certificate for the possibility to verify you as who you are. The right way to get a certificate like this is for your browser to generate it! The private key should NEVER get out of the client machine. It should be generated and stored within the browser certificate store.
