If you are referring to that small lock next to the web address, it means that the site is secure and encrypted.  https://www.exede.com/blog/encryption-little-lock-url-bar-means/

He is referring to the lock symbol used on JWTalk, as is shown in the screen shot he posted.

Yeah that red circle would have helped.  LOL

Especially since there are two lock symbols in the picture ... and they do not mean the same thing

Oh, yeah. I never noticed that before. Okay, you've got me curious. What does the lock in the address bar mean?

When there's a lock in an address bar it means the site is https instead of http which means http-secure. A layer of encryption to the site to ensure security.
