Hi Jian, Our public web site, genome.ucsc.edu, is designed to be an open public resource. Without going into details, it is possible that a users interactions with our public web site could be snooped.
If you have sensitive confidential data, we suggest you consider other ways to utilize our Genome Browser software and its databases, e.g. setting up a local private UCSC GB mirror site behind your own firewall and possibly with additional access control (HTTPS and HTTP-AUTH), like many others have done. If you are interested, I can refer you to appropriate persons for further discussion.
