To help protect your information as you browse, we are introducing a feature called Automatic HTTPS: now available for preview in Canary and Developer channels with Microsoft Edge 92.Īutomatic HTTPS switches your connections to websites from HTTP to HTTPS on sites that are highly likely to support the more secure protocol. Some sites may not redirect visits from HTTP to HTTPS at all, leaving some visitors with a less secure connection. However, too many of these sites aren’t configured to require HTTPS, leaving open a short window of opportunity for attackers before the site can redirect to the more secure protocol. Most websites now support HTTPS, which can help protect against these man-in-the-middle attacks. When sites are loaded over HTTP, attackers can view or change page content in transit, or redirect you to a different location than you had expected. These icons indicate whether a site is delivered over HTTP, or the more secure HTTPS protocol.
Starting with Microsoft Edge 92, users can preview the Automatic HTTPS feature, which automatically switches your connections to websites from HTTP to HTTPS.Īs you browse the web, you may notice that the Microsoft Edge address bar displays a “not secure” message for some sites, and a lock icon for others.
