Man in the Middle Attack (MitM) Troy Hunt webinar

  • MitM attack from the router, ISP.
  • Content injection on an insecure page (HTTP)
  • HTTP2 works with TLS. H2 protocol loads resources very fast  (httpvshttps.com)
  • All major browsers are planning to show warning, not secure on form fields, that will scare the end customer away from using the websites.
  • chrome://flags/ - you can change settings to explicitly show when a connection is not secure

  • Add secure header, set the max age, include sub domains, preload hsts
  • hstspreload.org - registering HSTS, refer submission requirements
