HTTP Proxy SSL/TLS Mode

Although Kron PAM secures all communication after authentication through the HTTPS protocol, authentication is performed through the HTTP protocol by default on the web browser. This information can be obtained if the network is captured. To eliminate this risk, you can configure HTTP Proxy to use the HTTPS protocol, even for proxy authentication.

This feature requires a set of configurations on HTTP Proxy and then restarting the web browser with the HTTPS protocol for authentication. For the Chrome instance, you must start it as follows in the end-user browser to start the session with SSL:

chrome --proxy-server=https://HTTP_PROXY_HOST:<HTTP_PROXY_PORT
