About the same time in 2017, Google Chrome browser had started labelling the HTTP pages as ‘Not Secure’ when the user entered the information. Today, Google has made announcement that the final step in this regard is about getting the website owners switch to the HTTPS encryption.
Moreover, from July, especially when Chrome version no. 68 will be available, Chrome will label all HTTP pages as ‘not secure’. The image below also shows the same, and those whose webmasters have not shifted to HTTPS framework, will be given set-up guides for helping them start as well as explain the reasons for importance of encryption.
Similarly, back in 2016, the progress with regard to HTTPS was not quite good, as only 81 out of top 100 websites on the web were by default using this security. Moreover, more than 68% traffic of Chrome on Windows and Android is secure, in addition to the 78% traffic of Chrome being available on Chrome OS as well as macOS.
