Chrome 68 has been launched, and it comes with a warning for HTTP sites<\/h2>\n

Google has just released a stable update for Chrome 68, and it brings something that we’ve all been waiting for\u2014 \u2018Not Secure’ warning for all HTTP sites. Google has been pushing for HTTPS under its \u2018HTTPS Everywhere<\/strong>‘ campaign, and this move could turn out to be a real hammer blow to the usage of HTTP.<\/p>\n

From now on, all users browsing through Chrome 68 will be shown a \u201cNot Secure\u201d warning when landed on an HTTP page. Keep in mind that you may not have received Chrome 68 update right now as it takes around a week for Google to get the update across all platforms and regions.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what Google wrote on its official blog<\/a>:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Security has been one of Chrome’s core principles since the beginning\u2014we’re constantly working to keep you safe as you browse the web. Nearly two years ago, we announced that Chrome would eventually mark all sites that are not encrypted with HTTPS as “not secure.” This makes it easier to know whether your personal information is safe as it travels across the web, whether you’re checking your bank account or buying concert tickets. Starting today, we’re rolling out these changes to all Chrome users.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From now on, Google Chrome (v68)<\/strong> will show this warning on HTTP websites:<\/p>\n

The usage of HTTPS<\/strong> is higher than ever. However, there\u2019s still a long way to go as there is still a good part of the internet still using the age-old, insecure HTTP protocol.<\/p>\n

According to Cloudflare<\/strong>, 542,605 websites out of top 1 million don\u2019t serve their users over HTTPS. Therefore, a large number of internet users will be shown this \u2018Not Secure\u2019 warning. It\u2019s quite shocking to see many reputed platforms and organizations not implementing HTTPS<\/p>\n

The majority of the Internet\u2019s top 1M most popular sites will show up as \u201cNot Secure\u201d in @GoogleChrome<\/a> starting July 24th. Make sure your site redirects to #HTTPS<\/a>, so you don\u2019t have the same problem. @Cloudflare<\/a> makes it easy! #SecureOnChrome<\/a> https:\/\/cfl.re\/2LA4t9i<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/r2HWkfRofW<\/a><\/p>\n
