minor #5389 Updates to security.rst (HexTitan)
This PR was submitted for the 2.7 branch but it was merged into the 2.3 branch instead (closes #5389). Discussion ---------- Updates to security.rst - Unified HTTP (it was already HTTP in some places, but not others) - Changed "old-school pop-up" to "old-school prompt" since it is technically a prompt, asking for input, and pop-up has negative connotations - Changed the wording HTTP Basic to HTTP basic auth(entication) Thoughts?
