Decryption: Why, Where, and How

Internet traffic encrypted with Transport Layer Security (TLS) or Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols is on an explosive upturn. According to the Google Transparency Report, “Nearly 95% of traffic uses encryption depending on the platform.” Given the primary benefits of encryption—the private and secure exchange of information over the internet, and compliance with certain regulations, such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS)—the trend in encrypted traffic is expected to continue. The major revision of HTTP 1.1 to HTTP/2, which offers significant performance improvements and an enhanced user experience compared to older protocols, effectively makes encryption mandatory as browsers support HTTP/2 over TLS. Major browsers, including Chrome®, Firefox®, Safari®, and Microsoft Edge®, now mark plaintext HTTP webpages as “not secure.”
