Features & Capabilities

The HTTPS Open add-on analyzes the server response to determine whether an HTTPS version of the website exists, and if it does, it will automatically redirect the user to that version.

This process not only helps to secure the user's sensitive information but also ensures that the website they are accessing is the genuine website and not a fake one created by hackers. By forcing websites to use HTTPS, the HTTPS Open add-on helps to protect users from man-in-the-middle attacks, where an attacker intercepts communication between the user and the website and steals their information.

The HTTPS Open add-on that forces websites to use HTTPS instead of HTTP is a simple yet effective tool that greatly enhances the security of online browsing. It is a must-have for anyone who values their online privacy and security and wants to protect themselves from cybercriminals and other online threats.

Is HTTPS Open Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

HTTPS Open requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
