SKN SSL Enforcer: Secure Browsing Chrome Extension

SKN SSL Enforcer is a Chrome extension aimed at facilitating secure browsing on the web. It ensures websites you visit use HTTPS protocol, where supported, allowing you a safer browsing experience. The extension rewrites web requests using HTTPS before the browser opens a network connection, which means all data, including headers and content, is encrypted during transit. Regular updates and improvements are made to provide a seamless user experience.

User reviews

Works fine and it is an open source! Thanks for the developer! Note that it redirects from http to https, which can be TLS or SSL (not necessary to SSL, which is actually good because TLS is stronger). Also, this extension is more lightweight than HTTPS Everywhere (consumes less resources).
