HTTPS Somewhere

HTTPS Somewhere

Redirect HTTP to HTTPS with user defined rules.

What is HTTPS Somewhere?
'HTTPS Somewhere' is a Chrome extension that enables users to redirect HTTP to HTTPS with their own set rules. It offers more user control over the redirection process with an advanced user interface. In contrast to similar extensions, HTTPS Somewhere works with resources and elements on non-secure webpages, operates completely in the background, and doesn't attempt to change user's browsing preferences. It also doesn't redirect to a different hostname. This extension can enhance browsing security by adding an extra layer of TLS or SSL encryption, protecting against possible XSS attacks.
