Google will add an HTTPS-First Mode to the Chrome web browser to block attackers from intercepting or eavesdropping users’ web traffic. By upgrading all connections to websites to HTTPS, Google Chrome 94 will protect users from man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks trying to snoop on or alter data exchanged with Internet servers over the unencrypted HTTP protocol. Google has also previously updated Chrome to default to HTTPS for all URLs typed in the address bar if the user doesn’t specify a protocol.
