A Firefox and Chrome extension that encrypts your webpages. HTTPS Everywhere is an extension for Firefox and Chrome that encrypts your communications with most major websites, giving you secure browsing where available. The extension is the result of a collaboration between the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and the Tor Project. It’s designed to rewrite requests to websites with HTTPS and automatically use encrypted connections, instead of using the default HTTP. An HTTPS connection protects the data sent between your computer and the website’s server, however it doesn’t conceal the identity of the website you’re accessing.

HTTPS Everywhere works using a whitelist of HTTPS-enabled sites
