DETECTION OVERVIEW
Risk Factors
Web-based applications and clients are often misconfigured to send and receive traffic over HTTP instead of HTTPS. Data that is sent over HTTP as plaintext or with Basic authentication (RFC 7617) can increase the risk of exposing passwords to attackers and result in exploits of higher-value assets.
Kill Chain
Risk Score
60
Establish a security policy that directs employees to refrain from connecting to websites over HTTP, especially when submitting credentials to a website
Audit web server configurations to confirm that SSL/TLS and HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) are enabled and configured correctly
Make sure clients are configured to transmit sensitive data, such as passwords, over HTTPS
