HTTPS Mixed Content Locator for Chrome Description
HTTPS Mixed Content Locator is a Google Chrome extension that can identify mixed content on HTTP websites, which happens when some elements of the page are still loaded on HTTP instead of HTTPS.
This is practical for web developers to rapidly fix issues after transitioning from HTTP to HTTPS in an effort to improve user authentication, protect data integrity from hackers, and preserve the anonymity of their visitors.
Detects active and passive mixed content on HTTPS pages
There are two types of mixed content available, active and passive, and HTTPS Mixed Content Locator is capable of detecting both. Passive mixed content means that the content doesn’t interact with the rest of the page, which contains htttp:/ links in its src attribute, such as audio, video, images, and resources.
Active mixed content interacts with the page and makes it more vulnerable to hackers than passive content. Examples include scripts, flash resources, iframes, and stylesheets.
Performs an instant analysis on the current page
HTTPS Mixed Content requires permission to read and change all your data on the websites you visit to be able to integrate it with Chrome. Afterward, it’s necessary to restart the web browser although this isn’t requested.
Once the plugin is active, you can click its icon in the upper-right corner of the browser to get an instant mixed content analysis on the currently visited page. However, HTTPS Mixed Content Locator is only capable of listing the issues, it cannot actually point out the blocks of code in the page source.
Looking forward to new features
There are no configuration settings available for this addon. If there is no mixed content on a HTTPS or HTTP page, this is mentioned by the tool. Also, it can only analyze one page at a time.
All aspects considered, HTTPS Mixed Content Locator offers a simple and straightforward solution for analyzing active and passive mixed content on HTTPS webpage. We’re looking forward to new features, such as a history tracker for analyzed pages.
